GEORGE BUCK LETTER FROM ONTARIO Submitted by SGS Member Doris K. Carnahan

George Buck was a resident of Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Spelling and punctuation are as the original was composed. George's handwriting is quite good and suggests he had, at least, a basic education. Photocopy of the original letter was given us by John E. Buck of Kingston, Ontario. Martha Jane Buck McCoubrey is a direct ancestor. She and Alexander were married in Carrick, Bruce County, Ontario in 1858. Their first son was Thomas Martin McCoubrey, born 1859, died 1927, and was my husband's maternal grandfather.

CHINOOK LANGUAGE DICTIONARY PROPOSED The White River Valley Museum in Auburn is proposing a reprint of the classic Chinook Jargon-English Diction­ ary. Chinook Jargon was a 300-400 word trade language used throughout the Northwest in the early days and is drawn from Chinook (and possibly other Indian languages), European and Asian sources. It figured in some treaty negotiations and was used as a secret code in the Civil War. Contact the museum for more details. Page 18 Sfcattfle ^encafoaical §>oikty IMktivt Autumn 1989
