Information About

Edmund Bailey O'callaghan




On the death of Daniel Tracey , owner of the '' Montreal Vindicator '' newspaper, in 1832 O'Callaghan became the editor and brought in Thomas Storrow Brown to work on the paper. They proved to be an irreducible adversary of Lord Gosford and the status quo.

In 1837 , during the Lower Canada Rebellion , a mandate of arrest was issued against him, and he sought refuge at Saint-Denis , then crossed the United States border with friend, Louis-Joseph Papineau . Later, O'Callaghan became secretary-archivist of the State Of New York , and died there in 1880 .
