註釋
Charles Lindsey (1820-1908) was a British newspaperman and author. At the age of 22 he immigrated to Upper Canada "in search of some occupation as a writer" and in 1846 he was hired as an editor for the Toronto Examiner. He was politically radical thus in 1850 he participated in establishing the radical North American. Lindsey was best known in his last years as an author rather than a journalist. He also wrote for the Mail, the Monetary Times, and the Canadian Monthly and National Review. In 1862, using his father-in-law's papers, he had published a biography of W. L. Mackenzie entitled The Life and Times of Wm. Lyon Mackenzie. His other works include: The Clergy Reserves: Their History and Present Position, Showing the Systematic Attempts That Have Been Made to Establish, in Connection With the State, a Dominant Church in Canada (1851), Prohibitory Liquor Laws (1855) and The Prairies of the Western States: Their Advantages and Their Drawbacks (1860).
