FOOTNOTES

[1] This passage was written in January, 1914.

[2] It may interest old country people to learn that servants coming to Canada generally expect to take their meals with the family, or enjoy other social advancements.

[3] Possibly Elsie might have spelt this word differently.

[4] Doubtless Mr. Bang would not have said this had he known the rottenness existing in Manitoba.

[5] An Italian navvy once shot and ate an owl, and when he was asked what he had eaten, he replied: “De chicken wid de big eye.”
