Donald Morrison was famous as a Canadian outlaw, convicted of manslaughter, who became a folk hero. His father, a Scottish immigrant in Canada, was cheated out of his farm by rich landowners who used the old man's illiteracy. When Donald, who was working as a cowboy far from home at the time of the deal, returned home, he got infuriated. Donald hired a lawyer to get a farm back but never succeeded. He then burned a barn and was accused of a felony, so he had to escape from the police. He hid from law enforcement for ten months until he got caught and shot. Since he was shooting in self-defense, he killed one of his persecutors and was additionally charged with manslaughter. While on the run, Morrison earned the sympathy of the Canadian people, who often helped him to hide and supported him. Thus, the outlaw became a folk hero, inspiring numerous authors and filmmakers to reflect on his story.
