“Apparently when Horace had left the seven cartridges with the man, the man thought he knew where there might be some caribou on a marsh. So he paddled over and walked into the marsh…”

– Joe Goudie, “Twenty-three Trips”

“I got some stories from Ern and Lance. Now those were two very hardworking men who sure knew what to do. One fall, on the way up by canoe, tracking through the rapids, the canoe got leaky. They was all day tracking, and in the evening going through the Pearly Gates, the wind dropped out.”

– Sam Saunders, “Reflections on the Grand River”

“One day, me and Max and maybe Sidney—I’m not sure—walked down to the river to their settlement, and so we went in there and the women used to be on the floor, on the boughs, making clothes on the sewing machine and feeding the children and they would all tell us to come in.”

– Vera Butt, “Traverspine: A Special Place”
