Distress was terrible. Poor Law rates were mounting and grants-in-aid were extending slowly from the factory districts to the rural. 'Judge,' then said Peel, 'whether we can with safety retrograde in manufactures.' " "Then came the failure of the potato crop in Ireland and the famine and distress attendant upon it, forcing emigrants to the United States, Canada and Australia, to the number of 1,494,786 from 1840 to 1850 and in 1847 alone there were 109,680 who came to Canada. But along with the... poverty and misery of the poor emigrant on leaving Britain came disease and death in this terrible year; the quarantine at Grosse Isle in the St. Lawrence saw 5,424 victims of ship fever buried, with physicians and clergy laid beside them, while hundreds more died at the marine hospitals at Quebec, and Montreal and en route to towns farther inland. In 1849 cholera served to fill in the details of this picture of misery, this being the year succeeding the 'Year of Revolutions,' when all Europe was an armed camp in ceaseless agitation due to sudden alarms from every side.
