QuEnEc July IA letter has Just been
received by Dr.. Fiset from Louis Riel.
After speaking Of his ready surrender, his
chances 70 escapeif he wished to do 50
and the pacific effect his surrender had
in bringing the rebellion TO close,
Riel says it should have Some weight
in securing him his trial before the
Supreme Court, for it is there alone that
he can procure all Of his Witnesses.
He says he was in the United States labor
ing TO create Q turore for himself, when he
was invited among the Half-breeds to as
sist them in petftioning the Government,
and he worked peacefully until the time
when arms wers taken up. He says, also,
that he never dreamed OF war, but that
by intrigue and forged letters q complica-
cation Of affairs was brought about
by interested dealers. He desired
10 return 10 the United States, but
the people would not listen TO him. On
March Is they were proceeding to St
Laurent 10 Celebrate the feast OF st.
Joseph, and had to pass st. Antoine en-
route, when they learned that five hun-
dred policemen were coming by forced
marches to disperse them and fmprison
their leaders. sa
: When the halt.breeds learned this they
stopped their wagons and made q prisoner
of the Indian agent. They also made one
or two other arrests. R;el says he was
not present when these arrests were made,
but he was notified, and when he went to
the place he found that the people
had decided to take up arms in
their defense. In twenty-fonr hours the
whole population was in arms. He con-
cludes by asking not to be treated like a
murderer, and not TO be chained before
the Jury have pronounced upon his case,
and says he feels confident that they will |
not find him guilty. He says his fncar-
ceration Is telling upon his health, not |
withstanding the kind attention Of his
