RE: Interesting Visit
I find it all very interesting. The more information you (and others) share the more informed decision I can make and the better I can understand the events as they happened. You have been doing the research for years, finding documents filed away for longer than I've been alive, and I highly respect that. I'm still not totally convinced about Hedley and his photograph.

Thanks Jerry, I did not know that about the wanted posters.

Many in Canada were worried the North would try to invade Canada if the South started winning the war, to make up for lost territory. The Canadians wanted England to put more effort in protecting Canada, while England felt they needed to show more effort to defend themselves. England's military strength was stretched to the limit with tensions in Europe. Seward's attitude and letters made the situation worse, especially with the Trent affair. Canadian politics and public feeling were a bit divided during this period.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
