said to have recommended the cancellation
of good many final proofs in the Devils
Lake district. 1t is hoped the department

of stranger not likely to be possessed of all
the facts in such cases. and whose zeal to
show that he Is earn ng his pay may lead to
Injustice. Settlers think that when they have
made proof and the government has accepted
it and taken their money they should be free

county was traversed in every direction by
eager and enthusiastic parties selecting
sites for future homes until there is scarcely
quarter section of railroad land in the
county without filing or claim of some
kind adverse to the railroad company on it.

WINNIPEG, Man., Nov. 13.-Riel re-
ceived letters from his mother and wife
yesterday. They were written on the eve
of his expected execution. The substance
of the mothers letter is the fullest belief in
the divine mission of her son. She sent her
blessing and gave her belief in Riel since
his infancy. Mrs. Riel's letter was very
pathetic, and drew tears from the con-
demned man. On Monday Riel made a
long speech to Father McWilliams. His
mission, he said. was to purify the Roman
Catholic church and infuse new
spirit into it. He grew so ex-
cited that Col. Irvine begged of
him three times to calm himself Father
Andrew is now locked up with Riel at
each of his visitations. Riel has made a
will in anticipation of death. He has not
much to leave only small lot of land in
Montana. His will resembles a political
essay more than anything else. He leaves
all his writings, papers and documents to
Father Andrew. who still believes him in
sane. He believes Riel will walk to the
scaffold and die unfinchingly. He says
Riel wants to make speech on the scat
fold.
