?_____ and I think the buildling on the right is Knut Lang's Trading Store. Knut Lang assisted in the hunt for the Mad Trapper. Note: Carl Gardlund at the Power Plant was also on the hunt. I bought a cross fox pelt at Knut Lang's for $7.00 to use as trim on my parka. From fur coats that were sent from Anglicans in Toronto, I picked a mutton which I had turned inside out to form the lining for my parka. I bought the material for the outside shell from HBCo. It was bright red. Julia Sittichinli put the parka together for me and she did a special braid trim. In my mind, the total cost to me for my parka was $15.00. It was very warm and I didn't need to wear a sweater underneath.
