- Scope and Content (English)
- As ready to leave if necessary to return to St. Peter's Mission; not long ago I was a humble school teacher on the Missouri; today I am among the most popular of public men on the Saskatchewan; bankers invite me to their table; they applaud me with the crowd; the wicked rich are alarmed; how did all this happen; God has done much for me; the fourth of June a delegation from the Saskatchewan asked for advice; I left on the tenth of June with the delegates to return to the North West; July 1 we were organizing the Metis; the English Metis and the people of Upper Canada were with me; former prisoners said they were deceived and thanked me for defending their interests; the English invited me to two big assemblies; was asked to speak at Prince Albert; there I felt the mysterious power of God; am living with Charles Nolin; will return to Montana in September; do not wish to miss the elections; greetings to my family and friends.
