An old record of more than ordinary | interest has been unearthed in the orderly room of the 14th Regiment at the armouries. It is a book used in connection 'with the administra- tion of affairs in one of the com- panies stationed at Point Henry dur- ing the North-west - rebellion. In 1885, at the outbreak of the Riel dis- turbance, the 14th battalion was as- signed to garrison duty at Tete de Pont Barracks and Fort Henry. Two companies did duty at the fort for nearly two years. "Capt. James Mur- ray was the senior officer, at one time and commanded. His name is in the book, under date of March 1st, 1886. A number of the officers, N.C.O.'s and men are alluded to. The follow- ing are some of the names which ap- pear: Capt. Skinner, Lieut. Farrell, Sergt. Flinz, Lance-Corp. Gribble, Sergt.
