Dear Jim .�- Jt ' � ' f line's
i est a cwto let
you kneiv where I am and what ;1, am
doing, I signed a three-year con-.
tract with Hyslop & Alagle', fur•trad-
ere, to take charge of one of their
stores and tradewith the :•Indians. 1.
am' stationed at Fort Norman, at the
mouth of the :Great Bear River, and'
havea very comfortabl.e.place and :its
ofhelp to do the work, ..filly staff
eoniests of an interpreter,. a %lsher-
man, a moose bunter and an odd job
man ; all are Indians. The climate
here is very similar to that of • Ed -
menton and we grow all kinds ofger-
den•stuff such as potatoes, radishes,
peas, etc. The days are inuch longer
in summer and sthorter in winter.
It is altogether different doing bus-
iness with Indians than with white
people and you never think of tying
up a parcel for them. They generally
buy a blanket first and the rest. of
the goods are dumped into that, gro-
ceries., hardware • and dry goods, all
mixed up and without paper on then.
The Indians gave a dance •the night
after 1 arrived here and it was, a
howling success: The kept it up all
night and all the next. day.
We. had a very pleasant trip com-
ing down and hadany amount of ex-
. citeMent.. We came as far as Great
Slave Lake in scolds and from . there
down in a steamelr, From Athabaska
Landing to Great Slave Lake there
are a great many rapids and in some
eases we had to carry the goods and
boats across a portage. This is all
done by men and they carry from 150
to 425 pounds each. They have no
brains but lots of nitwit and each
knot tries to eari+y more than the
other. It dolts $13.00 a cwt, to bring
freight down so when you add a prof-
it to that it makes living very high.
Flour is $17 per cwt., tea $1 per lb.,
print 35c per yard and tobacco 35e
per plug, and as fur is our only rnon-
ey we make a profit an that too.
I think I have told you all the news

ori Thursday evens:ng last.. The:. ladies
of Wesley "always do these things
well and this was no eception,. the
feast being all that it should be, and
was thoroughly enjoy eel. The meet-
ing was eallcd for the purpose. . of
hearing the report of the missionary
committee, which was appcinted at.1
the August quarterly meeting elf the -
board. i r a
board The pastor,i erefo c , at, the
conclusion of the supper . and . after
briefly calling attention to the vas=
ious Forward Movements in the"
Methodist church and others, the
last and most striking of which was
the Layman's Forward Moverncnt,
asked the secretary of the committee,
Mrs,. Jas. •.Southcombe, to read their
,e/sport. The gist of the report • was.
that in' view hof; the need of the
the tunes. it was thought that the•
missionary givings'of Wesley Church
should be increased, and an. aver-
age of $3 per• member was suggested
as •a point to be aimed . at. It was
recommended that a missionary cam-
paign of at least two Sundays should
be entered upon, one Sunday to, be
given to the laymen and a represen-
tative of , the Layman's Forward
Movement be present to' bring . before
the congregation ,their privileges and
duty in this matter. It was also
recommended thee at the close ,of the
campaign a men's banquet be given to
be addressed by prominent laymen in
order to secure the 4nterest and the
support of the men in this • great
work, The first two recommendations
were unanimously adopted ' by the
meeting, the third was referred back
to the committee to' secure more in-
formation regarding. that matter and
to take action, later; .ff thought ex-.
pedient. The meeting was narked by
earnestness and enthtfsiasm. In ad-
'dition to remarks by Rev. J. E. Ford
from time to time, other members of
the board spoke. briefly and the gen-
eral feeling of the meeting seemed to•
be that the time had come for united
action in regard •to missionary en-
deavor and that the church should
shake off her indifference 'and take an
earnest and practical interest in
spreading the, gospel throughout the
world,
The pastor preached Thanksgiving
sermons on Sunday, morri'ng and ev-
ening.
The Sacrament of the Lord's Sup-
