Excerpt from A Memoir of Lieutenant-General Sir Garnet J. Wolseley, Vol. 2 of 2: K. C. B., G. C. M. G., D. C. L., LL. D
Indian mothers are called. In religion the people of the Settlement were tolerably evenly divided between Protestant and Roman Catholic, and the votaries of both these Christian sects boasted the possession of a bishop. Monseigneur Taché, the Papal ecclesiastic, who was at Rome in 1870, had his palace and cathe dral, together with a nunnery and school, at St. Boniface, just Opposite Fort Garry, on the other side of the river; while Bishop Macrae - whose conduct throughout the disturbances which gave rise to the Expedition, was in favourable contrast to that of his Roman Catholic confrere, and of two of his chief clergy, Fathers Lestane and Richot - held his minis trations in a church a few miles down the river. There was also apresbyterian clergyman, the Reverend Mr. Gardiner, to whose active services the Expedition was more particularly indebted for much of the success with which the difficulties of the Winnipeg River were surmounted.
