Nelson BC

 

 

As per telegram to Commissioner on the 23rd Sept

This man refused to answer all questions ? was drunk ? and refused to be put off the Train- Had to stop twice to get him off ? He then came into my office and said he would walk to Nelson BC ? He said he would catch me in Nelson and fix me so that I would never put off an other man ? He is a bad man and will cause trouble ? He started to walk to Nelson (60 miles) at 3:30 this PM ? He could talk good English ? and made several threats??

Report of Admissions at Waneta BC 1908-1918 transcribed by "Jim Bundy" jbundy48@comcast.net. As it happens, almost all of the people were arriving from various midwestern US states, and on their way to several places in BC and western Canada. A few were arriving directly from Europe. Almost all were travelling by rail.
