Closing of an Old Time Institution in Battleford
The Indian Industrial School in Battleford closes after 30 years serving surrounding reserves. Canon E K Matheson led the school since 1895 with Mrs Matheson, aiding pupils who became missionaries, teachers, farmers, or respected residents. The building, once the governor’s residence, marks Regina’s rise as capital and the shift to day schools and industrial education.
