SCATTERED MEMBERS
OF NORTHERN TRIBE
!. PLACED IN CAMP

Edmonton. Alta, Febs 27.-Accord-
ing to- word received at the royal Can
adam mounted police headquarters
here by Major G. L.. Jennings, Con-
stable Grinstead of the Arctic detach-
ment, stationed at Fort Fitzgerald,
has returned to that post after a
seven weeks trip during which he
covered more than 500 miles through
the Barren Lands. where he gathered
together the scattered members of the
Indian Cariboo Eater tribe, placed
hem in a safe camp with food and re-
turned to his post.
Last fall word was received in
Edmonton that the Cariboo Eater
tribe of Indians were in bad shape,
some reports stating they had re-
sorted to cannibalism, but the con-
stables report does not mention this.
Accordingly Constable Grinstead was
ordered to leave Fort Fitzgerald with
relief supplies, being accompanied by
carrying fish nets and food.
The Cariboo Eaters country. is stu
nted" 200 miles east and north OF
Fitzgerald in, the BarreniLands. This
entire country has recently been
burned off with the result that cariboo
in their ~nhigrations have avoided the
district and are not now found west
OF the Athabasca lake. A s.the cariboo
form the staple food of the tribe, the
absence of the animals meant that;the
natives were practically without food.
After rounding up the band, Constable
Grnstead located them further south
at ,Whitefish lake, in the vicinity Of
the food cache where their supplies
could be easily Augmented through
fishing and small game hunting, rab-
bits Astounding in this locality.
