"The information of Osborn Cox, of the town of York, Innkeeper, taken before us Thomas Rideout, Wm. Allan, Duncan Cameron, and Alex. Wood, commissioners....Tapley...the stranger, meaning Jacob Frazer..that he, Tapley, was in country as an American spy, and wanted to get away that night...".  [Signature of D. (Duncan) Cameron]


Taverns and Tavern-goers in Upper Canada, the 1790s to the 1850s :

"Conversations between barroom companions preserved in scattered documents, and the political activities they engaged in at the public houses both suggest that people enjoyed considerable freedom of expression there. Exchanges between barroom companions during the War of 1812 provide one example. Some expressed pro-American sentiments quite freely."

"Tavernkeeper Osborne Cox for instance, cooperated with one of his lodgers, artificer William Tepley, to obtain evidence against Jacob Frazer who had come in for a drink and raid their suspicions that he participated in organized support of the American cause."
