Looking through the books and papers, it ll evident that Mr. Muncey kept meticulous records of all that transpired during his

Qmllloyment by the telegraph company at Carleton. and later as telegraph operator: and keeper of the ice-boat house at Cape Traverse.

Typical of the entries in the

"Records of Winter Mail Service, Cupe Traverse, 1886-1895". is the one of Tuesday, March 1st. 1887; ”Wind north-west. Captain How- att left at 6.30 am. with four boals and mails. Tide going east.
