item 7: Letter from Archibald McCormick of Campbelton, Argyll,
Scotland, addressed to his son William McCormick, Township
of Puslinch, Lot 15 First Concession / Destrict of gore
Near Galt / Upper Canada / N. America", postmarked
Campbelton 09 May 1845, and Guelph July 1845. Re. Mrs.
McCormick (William's mother) doing very poorly due to lack
of breath and depression since her family went to Canada,
the author's disappointment at not being told by William of
Niel's death (of which he was informed by Donald
McTaggart), widespread fever that had affected most of
the family and had killed Alexander McCallum in Witchburn,
the author's attempt to get to Canada which was thrwarted
on the day he was to leave when his money was "stoped", the
author requesting money from friends and family in order
that he can emigrate, information re. the McTaggart family,
and Genat [Janet?] McQuilkan. It is concluded, "I hop[e] on
god this is the last letter all [sic] send to you from
Scotland. I am your loving father till Death, Archd
McCormick". 2 pages, double sided.
and the fact he emigrated to Canada in 1845
