<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Historical map showing road and buildings on Navy Island, Grand Island and Bulkhorn Island. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This manuscript map shows Navy Island in relative position to the main land, Grand Island and Buckhorn Island. Details concerning batteries, strength of current and distances from shore to island are given. The map is similar to a signed (H.O. Dewley) and dated plan (Jan.19, 1838). As this is a mere four days after Mackenzie and his forces vacated the island, this map, as well as the other, reflects the military interest and activity in the area. The map bears the stamp of the "Royl. Engr. Office" and "No. 116".</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Scale 1:14,400</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Map date: [1838]</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Digital reproduction of map (24.1 x 38.2 cm.) in the Public Archives of Canada.
