N-2001-016: CN-253B · Object · [ca. September 1974]
Part of Metis Nation of the Northwest Territories fonds

This item is the twentieth 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 B 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-252A, CN-252B, CN-477A, CN-477B, CN-253A, 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 eligibility for the Winter Warmth program. The Board also revokes a borrowing resolution for an overdraft on the program which is no longer necessary since the CMHC covered the shortfall. The meeting is adjourned until the following day. When it resumes, the audio quality of the tape is poor and it is difficult to hear anyone besides the President, Richard Hardy. The Board discusses hiring an Executive Director and decide to readvertise for the position but keep previously received applications in the pool. The Board also discusses paying for courses for staff, including correspondence and night school. The recording ends abruptly.

This recording includes sides A and B of the tape.
32. B Clark, G Kraus, H Vandale, A Faille, Flat R between Quartz & Irvine Cr, 1935, M Campbell photo

Milt Campbell's Audio Caption for photo: 32. This was taken below Quartz Creek but still well above Irvine [on the Flat River] and that'd be probably even ten miles above Irvine Creek. On the left is Billy and a dog or two. There's Snoodles and Gus. And Harry. That's Albert sitting back in the corner. This is taken against an ice waterfall.

Photographer: Milton J. Campbell

WDA's Comments, 2013 Sep 11: Once the 1935 gold sampling and assessment work was completed, Kraus, Clark, Campbell Vandale and Faille hiked about 30 km down the Flat River to a cabin that Albert had above the mouth of Irvine Creek. Here, they are stopping for a rest at this frozen waterfall. Note that the dogs are packing almost everything. They waited at Faille's cabin for ice out and then all five jammed themselves into Faille's big freighter canoe, which had been stored at the cabin, and started downstream.
32 building scow at Conroy Cr-Sikanni Chief R junction, spring, 1936
N-2022-003: 0806 · Object · 1936
Part of W. D. Addison Nahanni collection

Caption Source: Bill Addison because we ran out of tape & time (at 1 am) before Charlie could
describe it.
Photographer: unknown
WDA's Comments, 2014 Feb OS: A 15 year old Fred Sibbeston travelled alone by dog team
from Fort Simpson to Conroy Creek on the Sikanni Chief River, a distance of over 650 km
upriver. As Charlie Hansen's farming partner, he was to assist Milt Campbell and Harry Vandale
in bringing the four horses they had bought for Charlie down to Fort Simpson from Conroy
Creek on scows, one of which is seen under construction in this photo ( see Campbell interview
and diary and Hansen interview for details). It was a remarkable journey for a 15 year old
travelling alone.
This photo does not appear among Milt Campbell's photos. Thus, this photo was likely taken by
Fred and given to Charlie, but if so, it is odd that there are no other photos of the trip up by dog
team or the float trip downstream by river scow. Surely horses floating down river in a scow are
photo-worthy, but neither Charlie nor Milt have any.
3-2 T Trindell, Charlie Isaiah and Eric Lindberg at Lindberg cabin
N-2022-003: 1121 · Object · [ca. 1950]

Caption Source: Anna Lindberg and Bill Addison

Photographer: unknown

WDA's Comments, 2014 Mar. 10: Anna thought that Charlie's name might be spelled Azyea. I can find no such name in Father H. Posset's Fort Simpson genealogy (1973), which is not to say that the name does not exist. However, it does contain a Charles Isaiah (born 1926) and I suspect that he is the one in this photo.

Caption on back of photo: "#32. - 1941 - Seems like it's time to derive a lesson from the bears and find a warm place for winter's hibernation. All our work was completed when a cold spell made digging for gold a worthless effort. Wm Clark"

WDA's Comments, 2013 Jul 10: The bottom end of the flume before its canvas was removed. Before they left, the bulkhead was dynamited out to allow Bennett Creek to return to its natural course in the hopes of keeping the flume intact for possible future work. They never came back. Heavy fall rains produced turbulence and spray which froze over everything.
