WilliamMcDougall, when leaving for his new post early in October 1869 was accompanied by his family and several gentlemen who had been appointed members of the new council, among whom were Messrs.
McDougall also took with him three hundred rifles and plenty of ammunition, the government being apparently impressed with the idea that the slightest show of force would be sufficient to check any discontent, or prevent any trouble.
McDougall rose from his seat, drew himself up to his full height and struck an imposing attitude, as with outstretched arm and rigid finger, he ordered the train to proceed on the Queen's highway, declaring that he would see that no half-breed dare molest it.
McDougall studied medicine and physiology at the University of Cambridge and in London, and Göttingen.
Because of his interest in eugenics and his unorthodox stance on evolution, McDougall has been adopted as an iconic figure by proponents of a strong influence of inherited traits on behaviour, some of whom are regarded by most mainstream psychologists as scientific racists.
McDougall married at the age of 29 ("against my considered principles", he reports in his autobiographical essay, "for I held that a man whose chosen business in life was to develop to the utmost his intellectual powers should not marry before forty, if at all").
