2. Excerpt from Trails and Crossroads to Killarney by Aileen Garland: William Albert Pinkerton, cousin of David Pinkerton, of the Enterprise District, was born in 1866 in Pinkerton, Ontario, a villiage named after his grandfather, who was the first miller there. When he was eighteen, he volunteered for service during the North West Rebellion, but the rebellion was over before he reached Fort Garry. Not wishing to return to Ontario without seeing the country, he came to visit his uncle, Elisha Moore, (1845-1909). He worked as a plasterer with his uncle; many older houses in Killarney still have plaster smoothed by their trowels. William obtained title to E2-4-18, formerly held by Hugh Cameron, who with his brother Dugal had been one of the promoters of Tisdale. He farmed there for several years, then moved to Semans, Saskatchewan and finally retired to Vancouver.

3. The following is a transcript of a hand written history of the Glendenning School by Matthew: Killarney Feb 23rd, 1937
Re: Glendenning School District
Page 1
Not being any of the first settlers I can only give what I know after the year 1892 having left Ontario about the middle of March with our car of settlers affects on the Grand Trunk Railroad. We ran into the C.P.R. strike at North Bay and was held up several days & landed at Killarney first day of April, unloaded the car 6 horses, cow, hens, lumber & some furniture, left for the Glendenning District, got as far as the River at B. Mason's which we found in flood & was warned by Mr. Stevens who lived on the north bank not to attempt to cross as the water was over the bridges. My brother William who had been out in 87 knew most of the settlers. He took me & the stock back a mile to a Mr. Hobson's and then went back to Killarney for more affects, did not arrive back for a week, so I got well acquainted with the Hobson family. When my brother got back we started for the Adam Johnson house on the Banks of Pelican Lake, now owned by H. Brown & rented the E ½ 2.4.16. At that time Mr. Knight the first settler was our nearest neighbor & Post Master as the P.O.moved a few years before from the valley. The school was moved built a few years before in the valley.
Page 2
Fall came & my father went back to Ontario for the rest of the family and more stock & a hive of bees. They landed in Killarney in April 1893 having purchased the E ½ 2.4.16. We still lived in Mr. Johnston's house & got logs & wood that winter for buildings. That summer there was some sports on in Killarney & we all went. Mother & Mrs. Knight with the horse, had a good time & after supper Mother & Mrs. Knight wanted to go home before dark, said if we put them on the right trail they could manage, so that left us young folks free - the Pinkertons & the three Knights. Section 1 was nearly all covered with water, so when we got home Mother was not home, we thought she was staying with Mrs. Knight and when Knights got home their was not home, they thinking she was at our place. So we all went to bed as we were all tired & slept late that morning when Mother & Mrs. Knight drove in the yard.They stayed in the buckboard all night afraid to move for fear that it was a lake, but there was only a few inches of water but any way there were no serious trouble. I might also say my younger brother Herbert while chasing a muskrat on the lake shore tripped & fell & shot himself in the
Page 3
hand & lost the use of three fingers. Dr. Patterson fixed him up , thankful it was no worse. Now I think it was 1894 that the school was moved to its present site, N.E. 1/4 36. 3/8 which was my Uncle Chas. E. Moore's homestead, the school district comprises land in Turtle Mtn, Roblin & Strathcona, do not know who were the first trustees, only Mr. Knight, Mr. Easton & then my father who was the main factor in having the school moved out of the valley. I was elected Trustee at the death of Mr. Thompson who dropped dead on the east hill. I was also sec. Treas. When Mr. Knight moved to Alberta & held that post for about 27 years. The school was moved by a Mr. Watson of Neelin & done a good job too. Now the Tisdale town site was on the W. ½ 2.4.16. There was the remains of the old boarding house and the Blacksmith Shop which I tore down & filled up three cellars near the town plot, the west ½ was all surveyed out in town lots & many of the stakes that marked the lots I plowed under when broken, the land there had been a saw mill down by the river but left only sawdust. I might say that the Settlers that were still on their homesteads was Mr. Knight on 12,
Page 4
Mr Joseph Clements, James Clements & Wm Clements on Sec. 1. Adam Johnson on Sec. 10, J.J. Moir on Sec 14, Willie Henderson on Sec. 6. Mr. John Moir & Mr. Langin in the valley. I believe a Mr. Lang was one of the first teachers there was. The Durham family living about the same time on the South 1/4 of 36. the same section as the school familiarly known as the Oliver farm. I might mention that while getting logs for the buildings my 2 brothers were cutting and I was doing the hauling making 4 trips a day across the lake, the first trip after dinner I had my load nearly on when the trees began to to fall here & there with the wind. My brother Wm. Who had spent a few winters here before said that we had better beat for home, so when we got to the lake you could not see anything . They thought by leading the horse that they could keep the trail & that my team would follow, so we started out on the lake but they soon were back in the bush, so we unhitched from the sliegh & went up to a shanty about 2 miles up the lake & stayed , got the horses in shelter & then we built a fire on the ground floor, which soon smoked us
Page 5
out. By morning there was a lull & we beat it across the lake , left our load where it was, did not go for it for 3 days when the Storm eased up. There was 10 feet of snow over the load so we had to do some shovelling. That same year we heard that the rasberries were very plentiful so I and 2 sisters, Alice & Hattie & Harry & Maude Knight went over in a boat. When we got there Mr. Moir & his sister were there & the berries were plentiful. We filled our pails but did not notice the wind & when we went to go home the lake was sure rolling. So we all gathered up wood and built a fire on the lake shore & stayed till the wind & the lake calmed down, Harry Knight making 3 trips across first with the berries & then for the rest of us we got home about dinner time the next day. This being my first experience of Manitoba & the Glendenning District. - M. J. Pinkerton.
