My first example of Canadianism thus expressed, is that shown by Ad- am Doulsc Bier do Omleeux. some- times lmown as Dollard T‘ who with sixteen white companions and five Algonquin indiaos fought a very losing long fight. on the Ottawa River, against six hundred Iroquois Indians in the year i660. Now, the year 1660 was a very stem one in the history of New France. which was tho-rims by which Canada was then known The French, es you may re- ' member were fighting and ever los- ing battles against their enemy the English. The French were assisted Ln their struggle by their Allis the I-Ilsrons arid the Algonqutus, udille the English who lived in when. is now the State of New York had ls their Allies the formidable confederacy oi the Iroquois and when the news came in the winter of 1M0 that the Iro- quois was encsmped in large num- bers in the forsts ‘south waiting for the spring to open when they would make a lublime attempt to sweep the‘ French into the sea, great alarm prevailed; especially was the alarm felt in the than Hamlet of Montreal. as that was the point at which the first blow would lrobably be sruck, but the call before danger was the trumpet call to action for one man, that was Adam Doulac Bier De Ormeaux who was a young roan of not more than twenty five. who had seen even at that day consider- able servlce in the armies oi Old France. where he had incurred s oer- tairl measure of disgrace. what that disgrace was, we shall never know but he had come out to New France illled with a burning desire to per- form some deed of valour that should wipe off this disgrace from his name inrevu‘, this was his opportunity. lie at once went to the Governor ‘do Maisclmneuve and received permis- sion to raise s band of volunteers and sixteen young men with himse made preparations in accumulating aroun- ition and supplies, so sure were they that they might never return that they all made their wills an}! receiv- ed ule last rites of their clillriih and on the day appointed they‘ set out in their canoes with the blesslilll llld tearful farewells of their fellow col- onists.

They were over- hasty and sonic oi the Iroquois es- caped, rushing up the barlks oi the river to warn their friends above and the French knew that their time was short. Soon ass-in word was brought in that a large fleet of canoes were coining down the rapids and when they hove in sight, the French took the Post inside the fort and closed the gate. The Iroquois landed and finding the bodies of their compan- ions, they immediately attacked the fort; they were driven back. Again and sgin they attacked. but wluleiis sucoms.
