Notes de l'éditeur
- (formerly) a barrier set across such a highway to stop passage until a toll has been paid; tollgate.
- native or inhabitant of New England.
- With an overly large population as the result of the Napoleanic Wars, the Irish soon became impoverished. And with the religious prejudice of Protestant Masters to the Catholic Irish, plus political subordination, many had no alternative but to emigrate to the United States for relief. Between 1820 and 1860, the Irish were never less than a third of all immigrants. Cheaper fairs to Canada- then walk across. In 1845, the great potato rot touched off a mass migration. The disaster eliminated the sole subsistence of millions of peasants, thrusting them over the edge of starvation. For five weary years, the crops remained undependable, and famine swept through the land. Untold thousands perished, and the survivors, destitute of hope, wished only to get away.
