- Description
- Mount Elgin Institute, circa 1909. By the late 1800s, with enrollment at 86 students, overcrowding had become a major problem and the original school building (seen here behind the new four-storey residence) was in poor shape. In 1896, the Department of Indian Affairs, with funds appropriated from band accounts, constructed the new building in the foreground.
