Description: Letter reading "Battleford Nov 14th 1886 - My dear McKay - Thanks for yours of 22nd [?] duly to hands I am glad you are all [?] and that your[ie. you are] [?]trade is flourishing. We are doing fairly well in that live here - otherwise [?] is very quiet with us. Stewart arrived here on Friday via Calgary and [?] appears to be first rate leaves to take change of Turtle Lake on Tuesday. There was that keg waiting for him so we had a quiet horn[?]. There is great mourning here over the death of Bishop of S. which took place at P.A. last Sunday a.m. we were deeply surprised here as we thought his illness was [?] owing to the skiff trip down the river. Archdeacon J.A.M. preached a very touching funeral sermon at church today. Charles Brenner's house has been blown to I with g'powder at Bresaylor two women badly hurt. Fred Archer the celebrated English jockey has committed suicide. It is [?] that Connor Herchmer is about to resign that office in the N.W.M.P. and that 5 policemen recently sloped from Regina with $2000 of N.W.M.P money but I really don't see how they could get their hands on that amount of cash. Another [?] that France is going to have a slap at England because we won't evacuate Egypt when the former wants us to, I don't think France is quite in a position to tell our little island what we shall do or not. I suppose I shall have to cool my heels here until April of course it cannot be helped but I would much rather be at P.A. You will see by the Herald the excitement we have had in this thriving village about fires. I can assure, as a worker at the [?] [?] the town had a pretty close shave just about enough to scare anybody. I have heard that Rev. Pinkhaw of Winnipeg is to be offered the Bish. of S? Well I must let up. With kindest regards to you (and the moose) Yours faithfully Joseph. B. Parker"

Title: Letter to Angus McKay from J.E. Stewart:
Institution: Univesity Library, University of Saskatchewan
Description: Letter reading "Battleford 28th August /83 - My dear Angus, I was in so great a hurry when I sent those seals for the Power of Attorney that I had no time to say anything of my doings and trip to Battleford. I enjoyed my trip on the Manitoba immensely, the young ladies were charming and we had a good time all together, organized a brass Band McClelland played the cornet, Barber big drum on the smokestack, I [?] the concertina and some other wonderful instruments. We sat up pretty late generally and invaded the pantry when everybody else was in bed. When we got here, William was kind enough to lend me his rig and I had the pleasure of driving the ladies round town. I suppose you heard of the grand ball we had in their honor, music, banjo, violin and guitar, splendid ballroom in Government House, lofty ceiling etc. and the ladies all jolly as possible. I feel rather lovely now that they have all gone away. Did you see the charming Miss Gough on her way down, I expect D. is rather struck in that quarter judging by the number of letters and parcels he was sending her; he gave William special instructions to make the Steamboat wait for her ha! ha! ha! I wish I could convey a laugh on paper. Bad give-away about that ball of his, its all over the place here and I expect Edmonton will have it too, as McLise has gone up there, I always spell his name wrong, however it does not matter I guess you will know it all right. Delisle I suppose is still grumpy over that house, I laughed on the trip when I thought of his discomfiture, I expect it will rankle in his little bosom quite a while. William was telling me quite a lot of yarns about him, be sure and burn this scribble. The shop here is a pretty tough looking hole after the P.A. drygoods depart. I would not blame the ladies if they were afraid to come in as it looks like a spider's den all cobwebs and dust, however I suppose we shall be better off in a year or two; William has been living in a tent all summer fancy; his dwelling house was so ruined that he had to make a warehouse of it. It amuses me to point out high water mark to customers. I forgot to congratulate you on your appointment I wonder how Heart likes the change. I used to be awfully jealous of him. I suppose you are quite independent, and don't care a 'hang' for anybody. Remember me strongly to Gaveen and Agnew, and hoping to hear from you again soon. I remain yours sincerely, J.E. Stewart P.S. I heard McNaughton was so ill when he got to E that he cold move a muscle but I believe he is much better now. If you want the money for second paymt let me know and I will get W Clarke to give it to you.
