Clarke, an Irish-born Catholic; Joseph Dubuc, schoolmate and friend of Louis Riel, and friend of Father Ritchot; Marc Amable Girard, a schoolmate of Bishop Tache; and Joseph Royal, like the others a lawyer, and the most brilliant of the quartette.

		In this Archibald seriously underestimated the man. Compelled to restrict himself to a bare minimum of ministers, Archibald appointed Marc-Amable G irard as provincial treasurer and Alfred Boyd*, a merchant, as provincial secretary.
