"This book is not sold for the usual commercial returns. The profits will be devoted to patriotic purposes." A novel centred on Fort Churchill and Fort Garry, about a boy from the Orkney Islands apprenticed to the Hudson's Bay Company and his success in Canada. Pages 130-148 contain a lumbering story and pages 149-154 "An appeal to play the game fairly." Book, dedicated to Flatt's Sunday school class in Port Nelson, Ontario, has a suitably religious tone.
