Letter reading "Prince Albert Saskatchewan 25th March 1884 - My dear Angus, Your letter of 8th just came duly to hand. I got my valise back in a terrible wrecked condition. There is all sorts of rumors about the Governor. I heard that he is to be C Cr. as he is certainly the best man in the Service for the position. Sprees are frequent and I expect there will be a grand old howl when Gordon gets in, he is expected this evening. I have sent some papers, Envelopes and [?] by Parcel Post tis rather expensive, but can't be helped. You should make regular requisitions for this sort of thing. I had orders from the Governor not to send any [?] to Pitt. Any way there was no chance they only reached here on the 20th. Sleighing is over and backboards are in order now. I got along with your accts. but it is a sort of guess work anyway. You must drill young Simpson as I am afraid he is careless. I expect to get away about to 9th of April. With kind regards Yours faithfully, G.S. Davison. Is there a travelling case for use at Pitt?"

Letter reading "Prince Albert July 24th 1886 - My dear McKay, The venerable Archdeacon George McKay has just returned from Battleford, bringing me your welcome letter, I smoiled a regular 8 x 10 smoile, and laughed much when I had read through it. You are a regular wag, you must have been reading "Mark Twain" and the "Detroit Free Press". I am very glad to hear you are all OK and personally I must congratulate you on the very neat and comprehensive manner in which you presented the closing accounts for Fort Pitt. As far as I understand Mac is going to be all solid with Miss R at least he is engaged to her, and is only waiting for her father's consent (quite an item) to make her his missus and go in for all such sentiment as "Two souls with but a single thought" "Two hearts may beat as one" (?) happy state of bliss divine, Elysian fields of individuals thought etc all loom up before one eyes on such meditated repose etc etc I may here inform you that I have no further connection with the boot business. I suppose you have really met your fate somewhere, you expose yourself I think by your persistent reticence under such circumstances I think there must be a soft spot for a certain Mrs Angus, and to quote Longfellow: You are in love with an ideal, A creature of your own imagination, A child of air; an echo of your heart, And Like a lily on the river floating, She floats upon the river of your thoughts. Since you left us I have been very much in love three or four times, and I may say I am in that happy predicament at present. Thought it may not last long, but I notice such a state of bliss etc does not affect ones appetite or one "drinky-[?]" but we are all teetoalers down here. There is so much boozing round with this damned cider, that a fellow has to draw the line somewhere, and don't you think it right Sir. Mr Clarke has gone down for another trip to Winnipeg; he may be away about 1 month all told. Mr Jim is down here, all hunky, has been getting into some trouble about a horse he got at Regina, turned out to be a rebels or somebody's. Mr. T McKay got back from Pelly last Saturday. We are all pretty well down here, just as usual and "useful" - lots of work, closing up O.1885 etc such as you know always happens at this festive period. Miss Winnie McLean is here again to attend as bridesmaid at the wedding of her sister to Wilton; the consummation of their happiness is to take place on 11th August. Very merry thanks for you remarks re sympathy, perseverance etc re our cricket club etc, which we hardly reciprocate. Poor MacIntyre has lost his mother she died June 29 at Montreal just the day he was here. How do you get on with Commodore Sheets? He has recently brought a tooth brush and a bottle of pomade and chews a higher grad of tobacco so he is just A1. We have had quite a discussion here re the mail robbery, details of which you will see in the P.A. Times (Thunderer) whether on man with a rifle could halt and tie up 3 men? or whether the 3 men were ought not to have turned round and arrested the highwayman and brought him to P Albert - opinions differ. We had a rather enjoyable party on Monday evening last - we got the loan of Hughes' house and a select distinguished party had their Midsummer Ball. I am rather afraid we shall soon be losing the Rev Mr McWilliams and his estimable family as his three years are up for his stay here, and he desires to return to dear old Ontario. Socially alone, they will be much missed, and as regards the organ playing Sunday school teaching they will be very much missed in the Church. I believe you [?] shy of Presbyterian Church ladies, but it is your lots. The crops round here are all gone to I, literally burnt up. Tom Miller, Rennie Plaxton, and a few may have fair crops, but the greater party will not get their seed back and I am afraid there is a pretty hard winter in stores for some unfortunate farmers. There is not Northern stuff in yet, we are expecting the pieces by next steamer and don't you think it is getting devilish late. Charlie goes up to Carlton to boss the shipping I believe. We are making a regular Prince Albert man out of Charlie, and in due time Carlton will be effaced from his memory. I send you up a bundle of the latest papers; you will see some really brilliant and original things in the "Detroits", though there may not be much food for reflection, they may help you pass a spare hour. With my kindest regards to you my dear boy, I remain, Yours very sincerely Joseph B. Parker"

I am glad to hear [?] Stanley had got back so soon, and that you will make him work. There is a big lot of work here still, and since the Gov went away I have my hands full all the time. We have had very gay times during the past week. Tuesday the Citizens gave a Banquet to Mr Clarke in the Club. There was a fine lot of men there, and everything passed off so well the Gov made a capital speeck and was applauded to the roof poor Parker got very tight and fell off the steps. We had an awful time getting him home bot he and Giveen[?] sang songs for the party there was plenty of Grog. Wednesday night there was a party at the Stewarts (they have moved into their new house near Tom's) we had lots of dancing and a grand supper everyone was pleased with the affair. Thursday the Band had a Concert in the Theatre hall the place was crowded to the doors, and was a success. Friday Big Party at Flett's[?] given by the [?] we all went up but did not have much of a time as the place was crowded our dear friend Willie Taylor was there, and show like [?] a Cowel there were very little Grog, we all went home early no on the worse of wear. Saturday, Tom gave a dinner to the Curling Club, and a queer mob they are they had the dinner in the Club the dinner was the result of a match in which Tom was the loser. We have a very Golly evening I was at Clarke's as usual on Sunday the house seemed dull without the Governor and Mrs. Florence. I hope you will be able to send us your Transfers soon as I am in hopes of getting away when Mr Clarke gets back from the East. I have applied for 6 weeks leave. I will attend to your request about Mr Leunaus[?] books. With kind regards, Yours faithfully, G.S. Davison"

I am taken Sutherland place for the present but this place does not agree with my delicate constitution to much style and church going for me. Young Davison has a horse and cutter now and is about to be married to Loo[?] he is dead struck horses that for high and boards with his brother and he says that he is going to rent Johnsons's House as he does not believe in one room only.

Letter reading "Hudson's Bay Company's Office, Reference No._ Prince Albert, April 20th 1884, Saskatchewan. Dear Mackay [ie McKay] I suppose you will think it strange my addressing you after such a sort acquaintance, but I am sending you a few lines, in the hope that they may afford you a moments relapse from your somewhat monotonous life to ask you if I may send any stray papers for you to read to pass away a tedious half hour, I am still somewhat English. I dislike forcing myself. Things are jogging along as usual. G.S. Davison left for the East on the mail of the 9th inst so by this time is well on his way to Montreal after 5 years up here he certainly deserves a holiday. Giveen[?] and myself are alone in the office the Hon. L.G. attending to things generally with a very fatherly manner. We are to have a grand dinner on St. George's day - 23rd inst. and we have a very good scheme for ruling out any 'tough subject' whose company we may not desire viz. 25 were called upon and subscribed, each on having a spare nickel so that will really be 50, half hosts and half guests rather a goo scheme and when I tell you that the permit was based upon to average of one bottle of whisky to each individual a very pleasant time may be reasonably expected. I am beginning to know nearly the whole settlement now, and I do not feel half as lonely as when I first came some of the farmers - such as Brewser etc - are first rate fellows, and are the right kind of settlers to build up a new country. We have some great arguments on the Farmers Agitation, the Churchill Route - they are generally held in Elliot's office, Spr oat, Old Will Miller, John and Will Stewart are the principal participants. You will have heard all about our mill being burnt and by this time I guess Capn Smith is near you en route for this place to rebuild. Well Mackay [ie McKay] I must conclude, hop you will pardon my forwardness. I remain with kindness Your [?] J.B. Parker"

I hear from him by nearly every mail I have not heard anything about the rebuilding of Pitt, I hope you will make good returns, and have no debts outstanding at the close of the Outfit. I am expecting William down here every day. Be sure and keep all your [?] and other expense accts priced up at Cost lauded at Pitt. With kind regards Yrs faithfully, Geo Davison - Find out all you can about the movements of the Indians and keep me fully informed. There seems to be a feeling that we are to have trouble in the Spring."

Letter reading "Prince Albert Riverside 24th Oct 98 - Dear Angus, As I intend going to Winnipeg to get married about the 1st week in November, I will now ask you for the hundred dollars you kindly offered to lend me for my wedding, Mr Traill owes me two hundred dollars, but I don't like to bother him just now as he seems to be so hard pushed, and he expects to pay me in stock which will do as well. I am taking Thom's house as I told you for the winter and I will be moving down to La Corne in the spring so that I will work down there and try to sell this place up here. One of your robes was over at Williams, why it was not sent before now, and as Willie is away we have not had time to go down with it since they brought it home. We are in the middle of our threshing now tomorrow I have to be at Turners and Campbells on Tuesday and next Williams so that we will be nearly the last to finish. In haste Your Affect. Bro, Joe"
