"fl Forgotten jloFtheFn poFtPess."
His Honor Lioutenant Governor Sclmltz, previous to read-
ing iiis paper on " A Forgotten Nortliorn Fortress" before the
Historical Society, said that lie felt an apoloj^y to he due to
the President, officers and members of the Society for having
been unable to take upon himsi^lf a greater share of the
Society's work and that, in tlie presence of so many »rentle-
;
men who ha»l contril>uted so largely to its successful acconi-
plishment, he felt that he was very far behind indeed. If.
however, a reasonable excuse could be found for him in the
precarious health and many engagements of the past, he
would promise, now that he was better, amendment for the
future, and, should the Council Vjeable to give him an evening
some time soon, he would prepare for it some matter relating
to our early history, which might be of interest to the
society. It had been his practice, he said, since 1S()() to
collect everything in the way of pamphlets, reports, news-
paper references and other ephemeral literature which related
to the ct)untry west of Lake Superior; and when these had
become numerous, to have them bound in volumes for preser-
vation. Among such reconls were many which were purely
historical, and he would endeavor, if pos.sible, to select from
these, many of them dating back as far as lSo7, such as
might be an addition to the Society's records.
With reference, His Honor said, to the paper he was about
to read, a few words of explanation might be advi.sable. He
had chosen for its title " A Forgotten Northern Fortress " as
being applicable, inasmuch as being far away from any route
of modern tourist or business travel, Fort Prince of Wales is
scarcely ever mentioned and its ruins are .seldom seen by
;
other eyes than tho.se on board the Hud.son's Bay Com[)any's
supply ship, which once a year visits those lonely shores.
For the photographic view of its ruins which he had placed
upon the table he was indebted to Professor Robert Bell, of
