Mi'kmaq Holdings Resource Guide
Letter from Crawley to George regarding his hope to soon complete all the 4 of survey for Mi'kmaq in Cape Breton. He notes that there appears to be some difference in the amount of land to be laid out at what is now the Chapel Island reserve. Families there are starving.
note: transcription publicly contributed - please contact us with comments, errors or omisions
laid out twenty years before the Road that passes
through them was surveyed - If I could be
indulged with the Plan of the Road from Long
Island to the Strait of Barra by Mr. Sutherland
& that of Cow Bay Road I think I could now take
a copy and would then return them with many thanks -
Believe me, with great [regard]
Dear Sir
yours sincerely
T. Crawley
