December 7, 1859
Part of Life, Events, and Players in the North-West
Place: Ottawa
From: J.S. Lauder
To: Thompson
Details: 4pp
Notes: J.S. Lauder is likely Reverend John Strutt Lauder of Christ Church in Ottawa, and later archdeacon of Ottawa. Lauder writes in response to a letter from his friend Thompson regarding a young man, Finlayson. Lauder regrets to say that he does not know the current whereabouts of Finlayson, but his investigations suggest that Finlayson has gone off to “sow his wild oats.”
A notation reads “J.S. Lauder Rec'd Dec 12/59.”
