(Vancouver Province) The death of Theodore Dundas, an aged Indian, on Annette Island, Alaska, recalls an Interesting incident In British Columbia history-no less than the wholesale emigration of a settlement from Canadian to American soil. The story of the two Metlakatlas has a place in both the political and ecclesiastical history of the Pacific Coast. The story begins back in the fifties of last century, before the Fraser gold rush and before there was a colony of British Columbia. Captain James C. Prevost, in command of H.M.S. Virago, on this coast, about 1654, was a deeply religious man and was shocked at the conditions prevailing among the Indians. On his return to England he told the Church Missionary Society of conditions and urged the desirability of sending a missionary. The society responded, and when Captain Prevost returned to the Pacific In 18S6 as a member of the Northwest Boundary Commission, he brought with him William Duncan, a young schoolmaster, charged by the Missionary Society with the task of establishing Christianity among the Tslmpsians. uuncan began his work at Port 1 Simpson in the fall of 1857.
