    Title

    Mission Father at Fort Resolution

    Subject

    'Mission Father at Resolution'

    Description

    A priest from the Catholic Mission at Fort Resolution, Northwest Territories poses with a covered wagon. The wagon is drawn by large dogs by necessity rather than eccentricity, due to the absence of horses and other more typical draft animals so far North. This magic lantern slide has been hand-coloured.
