Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Tombstone of the Battleford Eight.jpg |
English: The gravesite of the Battleford Eight in Battleford, Saskatchewan, Canada. This is the gravesite of the largest mass hanging in the history of Canada which occurred on November 27th, 1885 in the wake of the Riel Resistance.
Documents at the time show that the Judge who condemned the Battleford eight to hang at Fort Battleford was accused of severe bias, the Saskatchewan Herald reported on December 14th, 1885 that a telegram was making the rounds of the press stating that Judge Charles Rouleau "is reported to have threatened that every Indian and Half-breed and rebel brought before him after the insurrection was suppressed, would be sent to the gallows if possible. In view of all the circumstances, and particularly as Judge Rouleau was a heavy loser pecuniarily by the Indian outbreak at Battleford, it is contended that he should not have been allowed to preside at the trial of the prisoners. A memorial has been received by the Department of Justice asking that the matter be investigated." |
