It was a numerically small movement, of course, but being virtually confined to Englishmen, Scotsmen, and Irishmen of the better class, and a good deal to married men, in many cases retired officers and civilians, it attracted a good deal of notice in the Old Country. There were very few districts then in England where Virginia was not at least a familiar word, as Florida and California became at a later day. It is quite true that with the exception of those people who had closely followed the ...American Civil War, the average Briton knew nothing about the country. To some it awoke a faint echo from some far-off picturesque clime, where happy negroes eulogised their ' ole massa ' to the accompaniment of the banjo, or adjured one another to * listen to the mocking bird. ' Others conceived it to be a new country like the West, like Iowa, Minnesota, or Dakota, where you built a log-house, and shot bears out of the window. A few who had acquaintances there thought it belonged to England ! More than one of our friends used to congratulate us on being within such easy visiting distance of our relations in Canada.
