A Report by Jacob Thompson

[SSlater]

If anyone hasn't read "A Report of J. Thompson" posted in our "New York Crowd" post at Post #13 (Click on the highlighted https://archive/cihm_ 49664# page? n4/mode//up) It is the history of Jacob Thompson term of office in Canada, and one very important reading of all that Thompson accomplished and why it turned out as it did. It is difficult reading, but it can be enlarged. He wrote this in Dec.
1864. This report led to E. G. Lee being assigned to Montreal. I have seen references to this report, but never saw the report.
If you like the nitty-gritty, behind the scene, skull-doggery, of what was going on - it's here. I enjoyed it immensely.
Sadly, some of the text is obscured. I checked the "Original" and it is obscured , too.
