"Then how shall we transport all these
people -and goods into the Albion Hills?" the
priest -said with genuine- concern.
"'Very 'soon Father, we shall have the
means. I expect to see wagons arrive at any
time," MacLeod reassured him.
It Was hi tact. that very evening that a
wagon trainwas seen .moving along the
• lakeshore. As, they approached, the Irish
immigrants. became -excited. They did not
know -who these people were who came to
their aid, but they certainly knew their race.
On the lead wagon was a man playing the
,pipes to announce his arrival.
MacLeod placed his arm around Father
O'Hare and hugged 'him.
"Now we can proceed, for we have
everything. The land, the tools and the
wagons to reach our destination. What is
more, we have the finest wagon master in --
Canada - we have MacCrimmonl"
"He's a fine man," the new leader told
his companions. "He's almost good enough'
to be Irish, so he is!"
When solicitor arrived with the docu-
ments for the crown_grants, there seemed to
be nothing to delay them further.
"Well Duncan, now I hope we can both
return too= respective.churche's and do the'
work which The Lord 'Melded us to do. Pray
tell me that we can now hire wagons from
Toronto and be off on -our way."
"I am afraid not Father,' MacLeod said
'with :a smile. "Evenif we could rent enough
wagons in the town, who would take them
back to4heir owners?"'
