The honour roll.

In Martin’s “H.B.  Co.  Land Tenures” is found a petition to the Prince Regent, after the troubles of 1816, asking for troops and steps to be taken for their preservation.  As these are those, from all the different parties, who held fast to Red River Settlement, they are worthy of highest honour.  These were the real Kildonan settlers whom Lord Selkirk saw on his visit in 1817.
