Their object was the overâ€" throw of British rule by resort to vioâ€" ence. No more brilliant band of young enthusisasts ever, battled for a cause in any land, but it was the old Irish story of forlorn effort, of crushing disâ€" aster, and of mlserable defeat.

FINED AT COCHRANE FOR BREACH OF THE NEW ACT On the night of April 7, 1868, Mcâ€" Gee left the House of Commons of the nation he had helped to create to go to his home and was struck down by a memberâ€"of the Fenian Brotherâ€" hood whose enmity he had invited by his patriotism. The years that followeda saw McGee in opposition to the Cartierâ€"Macdonâ€" ald administration, a member of the Sandfield Macdonaldâ€"Sicotte, Governâ€" ment, and Minister of Agriculture in the cabinet of Sir E. P. Tache. But it was as the prophet of Confederaâ€" tion that he became best known.
