Book excerpt: Stenographic record of the trial of Alexander McLeod for the murder of Amos Durgee and the burning and destruction of the steamboat Caroline, a notorious incident in the 1837 Rebellion. The American steamer Caroline had been used by the rebels and their American sympathizers to bring men and supplies to the rebel camp on Navy Island above Niagara Falls. On the night of December 29, 1837, determined to cripple this supply line, a party of Canadians under Captain Andrew Drew seized the vessel, cut her adrift and set her ablaze. During the incident, one American named Amos Durfee was killed. Three years a[f]ter, Alexander M'Leod, former deputy sheriff of the Niagara district, who allegedly took part in the affair, was arrested in Buffalo and charged with Durfee's murder. He was imprisoned for eleven months before he was tried and acquitted. This is a substantially more detailed and scarcer account than the one published the same year at the Sun office (see TPL 2469).

Book excerpt: During the Upper Canada Rebellion, it was believed that the ship American Caroline had been used to ferry weapons to a group of rebels on Navy Island. Her owner, William Wells, had purchased the boat six months earlier after it was seized for smuggling, and claimed to have unloaded a cask for the insurgents but to have been ignorant of its contents. Furious Canadians traveled to New York, where they found the ship in dock, and set upon it - destroying the ship, and shooting a man. Described as "a man of gentlemanly bearing and demeanor", McLeod was arrested on November 12, 1840, after visiting Lewiston, New York and boasting that "his sword had drank the blood of two men on board the Caroline" three years earlier. He was subsequently charged with the murder of Amos Durfee - an African American sailor found dead near the dock after the boat was destroyed.

Book excerpt: "In 1837 an attempted insurrection in Canada was put down, and the group fled to an American island in the Niagara River. A small steamer, the Caroline, brought provisions to them, and the British sent out a force to destroy it, which they did, killing Amos Durfee in the effort. The incident led to a controversy between the United States and England. McLeod, while in Buffalo, boasted of being Durfee's killer. He was arrested and charged by New York state with the murder. The United States government tried to prevent the trial, and failing, the United States Attorney successfully defended McLeod, who probably had no part in the event." McDade, Annals of Murder, 660.
