Toronto, July 10th, 1860

The bearer, the Rev.. George McDougall, has been appointed by the Canada Conference of Wesleyan Ministers to take charge of Rossville station, Hudson Bay Territory, in the room of the Revs. R. Brooking, who returns to Canada. Mr. McDougall is also appointed Chairman of the District embracing the mission stations of the Wesleyans at Rossville, Oxford House, Edmonton White Fish Lake, Lac La Pluie, etc. I recommend him to the Company's officers, to extend to him their wonted courtesies in forwarding himself and his family to their destination, and facilitating the object of his mission - the welfare of the Indian tribes within the Honorable Company's territory.
