Item component is a slightly edited transcription of a story by Barbara E. Anderson (née Hunter) that she submitted in 1932 to Campbell Innes, who at the time was broadcasting stories related to the history of Saskatchewan.
The story describes the trip that Anderson's father, William Adam Hunter, took in March 1884 from their homestead in the Saskatoon area to Duck Lake in order to obtain enough flour to support his family and other Saskatoon settlers.
Article is supplemented by a black and white photograph showing the Stobart Mill in Duck Lake - the destination of William Hunter described in the story.
Transcription can be found in volume 65, issue 1 of Saskatchewan History, beginning on page 6.
Anderson, Barbara E. Hunter (Mrs.)
