One character who interested me greatly was George O. Lookout, Hudson, Pickle Shirley. George was a remittance man – that is one whose family sends him a cheque at regular intervals to stay in the colonies. Lake, Wabigoon and 19 Northern communities. I got to know George when he worked for Dr. Day. He lived in the Day Block and did its caretaking. He also did Dr. Day’s books. He was well educated, read a lot (when sober) and was quite interesting to talk to. Box 1389 Helen Hainsworth (former mayor of Sioux Lookout) and I had rooms in the Block when we were single. I could always tell 40 Front Street Sioux Lookout, Ontario when George was sober, as he would be sweeping the stairs when I went to school. I had quite an extensive library in my room, P8T 1B9 so I would ask him if he needed any more books. Usually he did, so I would get him two or three. Tel. (807) 737-3209 One time his door was ajar, so while he fi nished sweeping he told me to go in and get the books on his dresser. He had several Fax (807) 737-3084 photos on the dresser. One was a wedding picture and another one of a very aristocratic-looking lady. When I came out I asked EDITOR George who was the beautiful lady on his dresser. Dick MacKenzie “Oh,” said George, “that is Lady Cynthia, my sister.” He said it in a belittling tone. [email protected] Cap asked him one time how he became a remittance man. He said he often got thirsty and one day he was left to babysit his REPORTERS/PHOTOGRAPHERS brother’s purebred dogs. He took two of them uptown and sold them for $10. When his brother found out, that was it. He was Tim Brody sent to the colonies. [email protected] Steve Feeney Dr. Day didn’t pay George, but he had a free room, a meal ticket at the café, and could buy anything he wanted at the stores. [email protected] Doc knew where the money would go if he paid him. However, George had devious ways of getting money. One was charging men from the bush $2 a night to put their bedrolls PRODUCTION MANAGERS Brendan Clace down in one of the empty rooms or in the hall of the Block. After I stumbled over a couple of these bums when I came in late in Cody Whiskeychan the evening, I said to Helen (who worked in the Day Drugstore), “Will you tell Dr. Day what is going on, or will I?” [email protected] She didn’t want to get old George into trouble, but after several days of my insisting she fi nally did tell him on a Saturday.

ADVERTISING MANAGER Sunday we were cooking our lunch after church when we heard a loud altercation going on in George’s room. Then we heard Amy Whalen Doc’s steps going down the stairs. [email protected] Shortly after there was a knock at our door. There was George! “I just came to tell you Dr. Day has just fi red me.” With tears

RECEPTIONIST/BOOKKEEPER in his eyes he told us all he had done for Dr. Day, the money he had saved him, etc., etc. Finally he said, “Well, Dr. Day can just Jen Jones stick his old Block…” offi [email protected] We gasped and held our breath. With a snap of his fi ngers he continued, “in his waistcoat pocket.”

CONTRIBUTORS George then went cooking in the North for some camp. He would make a stake, come out and spend it. He usually ended up in Graeme Mackechnie the hospital and good old Dr. Day straightened him out. What a character!
