The TALES you probably never heard about

The Canallers

[Buffalo Gazette, January 27, 1844]

We are gratified to learn from Port Robinson, that an armistice has been concluded between the beligerent factions, with some prospect of a permanent peace. Both bind themselves to give up their arms, amounting in all, we are told, to nearly 700 stand, and to give information of all riotously disposed persons to the proper officers. If the terms of the armistice are faithfully adhered to, we shall have no more canal riots to chronicle.
