Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report on Explorations on the Churchill and Nelson Rivers and Around God´s and Island Lakes, 1879 Before proceeding to state the results of the work to which this report refers, I shall give a brief narrative of the seasons operations and mention the methods pursued in endeavouring to accomplish the Methods objects we had in view. In 1878 I had made a track-survey and a geological examination of the boat-route from Lake Winnipeg to Hudson´s Bay by way of Oxford and Knee lakes, and the rivers thence to York Factory. I had also made topographical and geological surveys of the lower part of Nelson River, and of the upper part of the same stream, from Lake Winnipeg nearly to Split Lake, leaving unfinished the central part. In 1879 I was to complete this and to examine work for 1879. as much of the Churchill River as the season would permit. In order to accomplish this I proceeded, as before, by way of the city of Winnipeg to Norway House, which I again made my headquarters for the season. It is due to the officers of the Hudson´s Bay Company that I should here again express our indebtedness to them for their uniform kindness assistance and for the substantial assistance which they often rendered, enabling us to accomplish much more than would otherwise have been possible. In this connection I must mention more particularly Mr. Grahame, the Chief Commissioner, Mr. J. McTavish of Fort Garry, Mr. Wm. Flett of the Stone Fort, Mr. Roderick Ross of Norway House, Mr. C. Sinclair of Oxford House, Mr. Linklater of Island Lake, Mr. J. R. Spencer of Fort Churchill, and Mr. Joseph Fortescue of York Factory.
