This item is part of Peter S. Schmalz fonds, series 3, file 3 (North American First Nations resources - Published works). Rev. F. O'Meara, Lake Huron Mission. 1847. Excerpts: "Mahnetooahneng, Lake Huron, Dec. 26, 1844"; "Missions to the Heathen, Nov. 11, 1845". He was sent in 1839 as missionary to the Indians at Sault Ste. Marie, by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. He writes, at July 26, 1845, "An artist from Toronto arrived here on a professional tour of the lakes, for the purpose of obtaining sketches of Indian scenery, and painting striking Indian heads. He had been at the council called by the Methodists at Sahgeen, to which the Indians of all denominations had been invited, and the object of which was to make them dissatisfied with their present locations, and induce them to settle at Sahgeen, and of course to become Methodists."
