		Dodge was a Democrat, and an associate of Gavin McNab, the local Democratic party chief who was often referred to as "the Scotchman."[9] Dodge also closely worked with the wealthy James Duval Phelan, San Francisco’s mayor, and later a U.S. senator.
		Gavin McNab lived at the Occidental and the coffin was meant for him.
		McNab, who represented Dodge during the Federal Telegraph scandal and in the Tegnazzini-Legge litigation, later stated that the matter "preyed upon" Dodge’s "mind" because it "reflected on his honor."[38]

		Although Alexander McNab did not belong to the class of people whom the British government was especially anxious to help, he was attracted by the idea of emigrating, and was undoubtedly the sort of settler the government of Upper Canada was anxious to get.
		It is typical of the Scottish people and their love of learning that during their wait in Edinburgh the emigrants applied to the agent for the appointment of a schoolmaster and recommended one of their number, John Holliday, whose "certificate for character and ability as an ordinary school-teacher" Campbell reported to be satisfactory.
		Archibald was at one time president of the Agricultural Society of Upper Canada and also represented the country of Glengarry in the Dominion Parliament.

		Owen showed them to fellow passengers and apparently had them copied in New York to be displayed there and in Washington along with his plans and models of the Village Scheme.
