Indians who were running rampant through 1 Utah and Montana and all the members ; of his party carried two or three guns. After ycoxnpleting work in the_' United States he {returned to Canada. but in 1870 again went ; to, the United States, this time locating ',in Wisconsin. He then made explorations ifor. the Northern` -Pacific railway through 3 Idaho and Montana. and when -that was y completed was going to the Yellowstone district for further exploration work, but ]5~t.he trip was cancelled when .the govern- ; ment found themselves unable to send troops Ito protect the surveyors from thelndians. l In `Q71 kn urn`-lint` An {Jan `hnn lsnlvuynnn Carrying his hearers blxck to the days of . the Fenian raid, and through Country where ;some of Canada s largestcities now stand, -`but what was, then nothing but prairie lands, Frank `Moberiy gave one of the most -interesting addresses heard for some time by `the Barrie Kiwanis Club at its weekly luncheon last ` Friday in the Wellington a ll _ Il ..L.._I..'-nu.` Ln-n :-\ ll.-u`-L.

From this district he jumped "to the Western'Provinces where he did exploration worlc for the C.P.R. around Fort `Garry and through the Rocky Mouth` tains. In 1872 Mr. Moberly said that his desire was to se`tle down at Fort Garry, but the country was far too young and his stay there was khort. In` 1876 herworked on a railroad of six miles in length be- tween Port Arthur and Fort William.
