4 mar 1870 año - Execution of Thomas Scott

Descripción:

While being held at Fort Garry, Scott continually insulted the guards and threatened to shoot Riel if he was ever freed. Riel appointed a military tribunal to try Scott for treason. On March 4, 1870, Scott was convicted, and executed by a firing squad in the courtyard of Fort Garry. Protestants in Canada's largest province, Ontario, reacted with anger. There were calls for Riel to be hanged and the Ontario government offered a bounty for his capture.
