Excerpt from Navigation of Hudson's BayThe undersigned has the honour to bring under the notice Of the Minister of the Interior, in the following pages, the question of the practicability of establishing an ocean route for trade purposes between Europe and the north-west of the Dominion, via Hudson's Straits and Bay.The Minister will recognize the evidence of Professor Hind as that given before the Committee of the House of Commons on. Immigration, during the last Session of Parliament, and which appears in the report of the Committee. The undersigned, however, in view of the extent to which such a route, if found feasible, would contribute towards the Speedy settlement of the lands of the Dominion, has had the said evidence reprinted in a form more convenient for reference, and more likely to obtain for the subject the consideration which its importance demands.An additional paper recently received from Professor Hind, bearing on the whale fishery of Hudson's Bay, conducted by citizens of the United States, is contributed by him in support of the Opinions previously expressed respecting the valuable fishing industries which would probably be developed upon a more thorough knowledge being obtained of that great inland sea.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
