In reading this article, I am confused about whether McCully was or was not a supporter of Confederation before the Charlottetown conferences. In the first paragraph it starts out saying he promoted Confederation through his newspaper editorials. It later repeats that and then says that he eased off in his promotion after 1866. Then towards the end it says, "After one of the other delegates withdrew Charles Tupper picked McCully as a replacement. Although Jonathan McCully was not previously a strong supporter of union he was converted at the Charlottetown meeting." Perhaps this results from different editors adding or deleting content but either something is missing or part of it is just plain wrong. . . . . looking for the right template to add.
