From "Fenian Brotherhood", Wikipedia, bolding mine.
To get the Fenians out of the area, both in the St. Lawrence and Buffalo, the U.S. government purchased rail tickets for the Fenians to return to their homes if the individuals involved would promise not to invade any more countries from the United States.[citation needed] Many of the arms were returned later if the person claiming them could post bond that they were not going to be used to invade Canada again, although some were possibly used in the raids that followed.[citation needed]

@Boeing727200F "Promising" not to invade a bloody country is an extremely funny prospect in my eyes. The wording gives it the same level of gravitas as "promising" not to hit your sibling.
I don't get it
