Scope and content

Private correspondence from Alexander Christie at "Lakes Red River Settlement" to John Stuart at Hudson's Bay House, London, [England].

In the letter, Christie expresses gratitude and well-wishes to Stuart, he notes the recent recovery from the previous year's failed crops at the Red River Settlement, and he expresses details about Mary Taylor's departure from Red River to London, [England] in the company of Edward Mowate, which is likely a misspelling of Mowat.
