NotesOn 2 August 1894, William Merrison born 1888 admitted to Norwood Schools

Uncle Charles Pitcher, 6 Henry St, Upper Kennington Lane

Discharged to Dr Barnardo Homes on 1 August 1900

January 26 1903, with Jas L Smart, Rancher, Sasketchewan Landing, Assiniboia

Age 15, an excellent family with a most comfortable home, employed doing chores, health good, no church or school within three miles but has been taught to read and write, character-honest, truthful and willing, with the trifling faults of boyhood
Terms-to receive $84 at the end of three years from August last. This is a nice lad and I find him very happily placed with one of the oldest and best ranchers of the district who speaks very highly of him. The boy tells me that he is thoroughly satisfied and contented. He has a brother at Kilburn, Ontario from whom he hears occasionally
