| Description: | On these pages (pgs. 118-119, The Canadian Pictorial & Illustrated War News, no date), correspondents write about events that took place during the 1885 Resistance including information about the attack of the North-West Mounted Police on Big Bear’s Band, the 91st Battalion, the Steamer Marquis, military views of Battleford, Lieutenant Colonel van Straubenzee, Captain Stewart, Major am Steele, Lieutenant-Colonel Irvine, Lieutenant Turnball, Louis Riel and Big Bear. The most interesting text in this section refers to the wording of the treason charged levied against Louis Riel who was according to the charge “seduced by the instigation of the Devil, as a false traitor against our said Lady the Queen”. Of note on these pages are advertisements that delineate late nineteenth-century. |
