mont. Many have believed that residence
would count in the casesSf those who went
upon the land in 1885, when thrown open
by President Arthur, and, as five years have
now elapsed, that final proof would con-
sequently be accepted. AS a test case
George Pritchard, who has resided con-
%tinuously upon the land since 1885, made
a tender of final proof, carrying it to the
commissioner of the general land Office,
which has resulted in a decision being
rendered that time of residence would only
be counted from the issuance Of the last
proclamation last spring. The final proof
was therefore rejected accordingly.

DIED OF STARVATION.
SUFFERING AND WANT AMONG
LABRADOR RESIDENTS.

Many Of the Settlers Along the Coast Re.
duced to the Verge Of Starvation and
Now Living on Sculpins and Musseis-A
Party of Twenty-Threo Succumb.
Terrible suffering exists in Labrador, and
many have died Of starvation. A letter
received at Halifax from the Church of
England missionary, dated June g., reads
as follows: Snow is piled up in heaps as
heavy as any time 10 winter and ice as
solid. In consequence there will be a long
aud extremely severe winter. Many set
tiers along the coast are reduced to the
verge of starvation, and have been living
on sculpins, mussels, ETC., for o long time.
A party of twenty three Esquimaux left
that neighborhood in January in search of
deer, and having found none, the whole
party died OF starvation. We passed
through a trying winter and had a bad
fall. There was a scarcity of fur and seals
with intense cold. In some places it has
been one of suffering and want; but in no
case that I have heard of SO far has it
endtd in starvation. In my own immedi-
ate neighborhood many are existing on
mussels alone"
