He assembled the men- folk, and told thein that the long sea journey together had given thein the opportunity to • asses s each other's capabilities. It wits time for the, nt to vote or a leader.

Duncan MacLcd thought it pertinent to give a few words of advice to Dougherty, who was used, to.. exeielsing his authority over others by virtue of his rank. "My own people twee followed the same road you are abotit to take. It enters a wilderness of hardship and privation," MacLeod told the newly appointed leader. "You must lead by example and not by virtue of your authority. the success of your settlement will depend upon the cooperation between neighbours and the compassion you show to those less' fortunate than yourselves. • Why am I, a Scots Presbyterian minister, here amongst high Catholics? Because we • both believe in- the words of our dear Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, who said: Love thy neighbour as thyself." Dougherty was touched by the words of. this strange man who had ridden so far aid done so much to help a group of strangers, not even of his own faith. • "I will do as you. say, so I will, and we will all be a thankite you. We will never forget your kindness, so we. won't," Dougherty said awkwardly and sincerely. "Then I shall leave these people in good hands, for I still have much to do. Please take care of theca until I return," MacLeod told the new leader. 'There was indeed still much to do. First he would hire a lawyer to go to Brampton and arrange for crown grants to be allotted to the immigrant families. Then there was the gathering of essential supplies and tools which the people would need to take with them on the long journey up the sixth line. This latter business he intended to leave in the hands of Father O'Hare, ably assisted by Dougherty. For this purpose he gave the priest the necessary funds. "I see you are walking much better now.
