Abstract Mention of Fishers Grant reserve in the Annual report by the Superintendent General of Indian Affairs. Discussed agricultural growth and also difficulty with obtaining a teacher for the School.
Form text
Note "In the County of Pictou it is gratifying to learn that there are indications of greater comfort existing among the Indians on the reserve at Fisher's Grant, but as the agent merely states the fact in his report and omits to state in what respects the same are observable, it is beyond my power to illustrate the statement. It is to be greatly deplored that the school at this reserve has remained closed for over a year, owing to an alleged difficulty in securing the services of a teacher. The population of the Indians of this county is 192. They have 25 acres under cultivation, from which they raised 920 bushels of grain, and cut 5 tons of hay. The value of the other industries pursued by them is stated to have been $800" (xxxiv).
