WhatLauraSecordDid
(By W. Perkins Bull in Toronto Sabusday;„,.Nigtt).
'I'n Upper Canada, in t./%0 sumnmeri the Second day after the information
of 1813, Lieutenant James FitzGib-
bons of the 49th Regiment was com-
manding a force of fifty men with
which he ("fad been detached from
regimental duty and assigned to spe-
cial service. His business was, to
root out anti-British sympathizers
and to collect 'provisions for the army
in a considerable part 'of the Niagara
Peninsula. On the 24th of June; his
base was De Can's stone house, on
the Niagara escarpment near the
head of Twelve Mile Creek.
About seven o'clock in the morning
he received information that a large
body of United States troops, with
tote, field guns, was advancing towards
him on the mountain road frtom St.
David's,
The amount of wbat,ensued is giv-
en as follows inkGeneral-Orders dat-
ed from Kingston on the 28Th of June,
four days later:
"Lieut. FitzGibbon on reconnoiter•
ing the enemy's position, and finding
him too numerous ,t7o oppose with his
small farce, with great presence of
mind kept him in cheek, while he sent
and summoned him to surrender in
the name of Major Deti}aren, and
which he 'was fortunately enabled to
enforce by the prompt and timely
advance of .the Light Division under
that officer,- :by whose vigorous co-
operation the capture of the enemy's
force consisting of one Lieut. -Colonel,
one .Major, six Captains, fifteen in-
ferior, 462 ranks and file, one twelve•
pounder, one six -,pounder field piece,
and a stand of colors, was effected on
the field."
This event, later known as the
Battle of 'BeaVe r Dams, had a
marked effect upon the subsequent
course 'Of the campaign in the penin-
sula. Great interest, therefore, at-
taches to the contribution grade by
Mrs. James Sedord, • nee Laura In-
gers'oll, in warning FitzGibbon of the
intended expedition in time for the
formulation of adequatedefence
plana.
No mention is made of .Mrs. Se -
cord in any of the official contempor-
ary records; but this proves nothing.
The United .States forces were still
in occupation of Queenston', where
the 'Secords were living,and whence
(.aura made her expedition -through
the enemy lines to FitzGibbon. Her
very home was an enemy ,picket, and',
her wounded %huslband and young
children Haight pay for any suspected
treachery on her part. The treatment
of British subjects in occupied terri-
tory, especially if suspected 'of sym-
pathy with the British cause, was
severe, and the punishment for con-
veying information contributing to
so disastrous an American defeat
would certainly have been exemplary.
Safety demanded that Laura ' -should
retrace her steps most unolbtrusively
and quietly resume her household du-
ties.
It is not surprising, then, that the
first documentary, reference to the Se-
cond exploit came after the return
of peace. It was a certificate from
FitzGibbon,,eppporting an application
by the. Swords for perm:is.sibn to
occupy and use a stone -quarry and
other property on the military re-
serve at Queenston. This certificate
is dated the 26th :of February, 1820,
less than seven years after the ev-
ent in question. Although published
by Cruikshank in the Transactions of
the Niagara Historical Society for
1924, this very clear and straight -
rte. -ward statement has bee.n gener-
ally ignored by -recent historians.

ser of the 10th eoncession, Grey, and
one son, Alex., in Wingham, and 10

on Tuesday afternoon with interment
in 'Brussels cemetery.
This, 'definitely places the date of
Laura ,Seeordfs journey as the 22nd
of June, and the time of her arrival
at FitzGibon's quarters as about
st nett.
The argvtteent of erities of the Se-
cond traditioh, as represented by Pro-
fessor W. 'Stewart Wallace, appears
to be based on tevo assumptions: (1)
that Laura 'Secord Could not have se-
cured any information of importance
before the American operation orders
were issued at Fort George on the
23rd of June (ptoibably in the after-
noon), because until then there Was
notching to replort, and that after that
date she could not have reached Fitz -
Gibbon in time to )be of service; (2)
that FibrGi'blbon could not have had
any knowledge of the impending
attack before seven in the morning of
the 24th, since that is the hour at
which his replort to Major DeHaren
says' be "received information that
about 1,000 of the enemy, with tfwo
field guns' were advancing . . .
from 'S'8. Dalid'si,"
Gulch, assunnlptions suggest a Com-
plete miseoneeption of the nature of
secret information in warfare. The
belief that. no .intelligence of value is
'obtainable until operation orders are
drafted and signed may seem logical
to an historian who thinks that sen-
timent has gone too far• Military.
authorities, `however, agree that ad-
vance warnings, even if incomplete,
are bf the nrtinest importance.. Equal-
ly erroneous is the idea that since
FiteGibbon quotes seven am. of the
24th of June as the hour at which he
received'•ofiicia) details of Boerstley's
strength and- Movements, he could
have had no pe'evious -knowledge of
what was in the enem,y1s mind. The
plain .truth is that in warfare there
are tvwo kinds of information: that
which tells' what bo expect, without
actually guaranteeing how or when
it will ha'pipen, and that which tells
what is actually happening. Laura
Se'rord's information belonged to the
former 'and by no means less impor-
tant class.
It was perfectly possible for Laura
Secord to secure,by the morning of
the 22nd, a very good gen'erad knowl-
edge of wthat was contemplated •by
the Amerrieanls. This is apparent from
evidence griveii" in the American in-
vestigation into the causes of the de-
feat. The Secerd house was the best
in the Queerin'tan. neighborhood, and
was ecoupied `by the enemy as a
picket post, although Laura and her
wounded husband were allowed to
remain in it. Major-General Winfield
Scott indicated at the inquirythat
the 13th Regiment of USS. Infantry
was stationed at Queenston for two
or three days ending "a day or two"
before the Beaver Dams -expedition,
thus making the 21st of June a like-
ly day for their presentee. He also
gave evidence as to the conflicting
opinions regarding the proposed at-
tack on De Cou's, strongly suggest-
ing that such discussion must have
been continued over, a good many
hours and eveh 'clays. General Mor-
gan Lewis (in command from the
15th to the 19th of June), testified
that he had been "frequently pressed
to send a detachment to the vicinity
of the Beaver Dams during, the lat-
ter- days of his command at F'drt
George," and that he "earnestly ad-
vised" his successor "to resist the
youthful ardent spirits which would
probably beset him on the subject."
It is clear that the sending of an ex-
pedition to Beaver Delfts had been.
the objective 'of a vigorous party in.
the immediate"entourage 'of the com-
manding officer for a considerable
time herore the 24th :of June. It seems
entirely natural that this party, as
much as two days before the final
drafting and signing ,of operation br-•
dere, should be confident of having
won its point regarding the e*tpedi-
