Not that Wallace, in his book. “Wanted: Donald Morrison, The True Story of the Megantic Outlaw", set out to make a case one way or another for the business of national unity, or disunity. It's just that, in his engrossing tale of a man on the run, besides . capturing the suspense and intrigue of the moment, something else comes across. And that is, the people of the eastern townships of Quebec. be they French-speaking. or English-speaking, had little trouble in banding together when they felt they had a mutual cause. UNITED WE STAND And that mutual cause, of course, was seeing that Donald Morrison of Megantic, who became a fugitive from the law for killing a man in self- defense, was protected until it was felt by all that the time had come when he could turn himself in and face a fair trial. .7) Clark Wallace ..... engrossing tale also became the target for Lucius “Jack” Warren, an American, who claimed to be a “peace officer“, but whose role seemed to be that of a bounty hunter. Warren bragged openly that he could take him dead or alive, but never got to take him either way, falling victim to a shot from Morrison’s Colt He also faced a couple of charges of arson for fires that seemed to have been set as much to destroy Morrison as the buildings they eventually levelled.

Except for a tendency to reach for a handy cliche to color his narrative â€" “pretty as a picture", “Lock, stock and barrel”, “ear. piercing scream”, et al, Wallace tells his story well. He also brings to life for us a Canadian folk hero of sorts, someone most of us never even knew existed, but whose story is every bit as colorful as those of all the many folk heroes across the border, whose names we’ve always known. derground movements of the Second War, quietly and effectively frustrating the enemy at every turn â€"â€" that it finally took a breach of trust by the authorities to capture the elusive Mr. Morrison. SUSPENSEFUL TELLING After the deception of the capture, the trial, or at least its verdict, is almost anti-climactic.
