Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen.....

Starting tomorrow I will be listing the following.....



Letters for the Founding of the Strathcona's Horse and The Weekly Reports

Between

Lt. Col. S. B. Steele

and

Lord Strathcona and Mt. Royal

Dear Reader:

The following pages will be letters etc. between Lord Strathcona the War Office and the Canadian Department of Militia, starting on January 10th 1900.

Also.....

The pages contain the Letters and Weekly Reports that were sent by Lt. Col. Steele to Lord Strathcona during the period 17th February 1900 to 12th February 1901. They have been transcribed from the original draft copies of the reports and letters which are on microfilm held at the Glenbow Museum Archives, Calgary, Alberta. These being draft copies, I have left the spelling mistakes and have shown the sections that have been crossed out by Col. Steele. For any Boer war Historian or Collector, I am sure they will prove to be fascinating reading.
