Notes of a Twenty-Five Years' Service in the Hudson's Bay Territory. Volume II.

The narrative recounts prolonged service in the northern fur-trade region, detailing sea voyages into Hudson Bay and the Ungava coast, overland expeditions through Labrador, and the establishment and eventual abandonment of a northern post. Episodes include hazardous navigation among ice and storms, inland exploration that discovers a great cataract, supply shortages and disease, and relations with Indigenous peoples — Nascopies, Esquimaux, and mixed communities — described through language, customs, subsistence, and material culture. Concluding chapters survey climate, flora, fauna, geology, and travel homeward to Britain and North American ports, interweaving practical reports with personal observation and administrative recommendations.
