Charlie's photo description: That's the hot dog stand. The WA, the women had ... Mrs. Milne,
Mrs. Pearson, there was no minister there at the time, Mrs. Gifford, Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Truesdell.
That was the six white women in town and they made hot dogs and things in there. Of course I
cooked for the police and I had to get my hand in there too. I was always roped in for the buns
and the bread and so on whenever there was anything going on. I wound up building a permanent
hot dog stand. It was on skids. We could pull it in. It had a roof on, open four sides, you know, a
building. We used to keep that for whenever there was anything going on. The people are too
small to point out.

Milt Campbell's Audio Caption for photo: 27. At the foot of the canyon on Bennett Creek. There are two in the picture there but I don't know who it's of. Probably Billy and Harry. They both have their heads down. This fellow's wearing high boots. Harry didn't have any high boots. Might be Bill, digging there. This fellow looking down could be Harry.

WDA's Comments, 2013 Sep 11: They are Harry Vandale and Bill Clark based on comparison with other photos. The light weight clothing and lack of snow indicates that it is early spring of 1935.
Anna's Photo Description: Ole, Edwin, Anna, Eric Lindberg at their Liard R cabin, early 1930s.

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar. 10: According to an article in Northern News Services (http://www.nnsl.com/frames/newspapers/2011-05/may12_11lin.html) Edwin was born 1929 Jun 16. In this photo he looks to be about 5-6 years old, thus placing this photo in the mid-1930s, close to Anna's suggested date.
This item is the fifteenth part of a twenty-nine-part recording of a portion of a Metis Association Board meeting, held ca. September 1974 in Fort Resolution. The original source item is side A of a 40 minute audio cassette. The meeting also includes items CN-475A, CN-475B, CN-476A, CN-476B, CN-248A, CN-248B, CN-23A, CN-23B, CN-249A, CN-249B, CN-250A, CN-250B, CN-251A, CN-251B, CN-252B, CN-477A, CN-477B, CN-253A, CN-253B, CN-478A, CN-478B, CN-343A, CN-343B, CN-254A, CN-254B, CN-255A, CN-255B, and CN-256A. The recording continues with further discussion of the Winter Warmth program. Examples are provided of ways people are abusing the program by stockpiling supplies, not using the supplies to fix houses, people selling leftover supplies, people unable to access supplies, and multiple people applying from the same family. The Board agrees that guidelines are needed and begins formulating them. They agree that material must be used in a reasonable length of time before the program ends so that extra material can be used on another house. If material is not used, it should be taken back and reallocated. Mention is also made of a monitoring committee meeting to be held with the CMHC where guidelines on how the money can be used can be discussed and sent back to the local level. Some meeting participants are hard to hear and there is background noise. The recording ends abruptly.
This recording includes sides A and B of the tape.

WDA's Comments, 2013 Jul 10: Bill Clark (sitting) and Jean Dumont in lower left of photo. The flume is complete structurally except that it lacks the bulkhead at the top of the flume to divert the creek into it. Also, the sluice box has yet to be built on the left side of the flume. A heavy canvas lining will be installed in the flume to reduce leaks through the rough whip-sawn boards.
