F G Shears,
Dept. of the Sec. of State,
504 Royal Bank Bldg. Vancouver, B.C. Dear Sirs:
Received your statement of the sale of my farm in Pitt Meadows B.C..
I was very sad to hear that it was sold for less than what I bought it for. It cost me lots of money for fixing both the house and the farm. I was sure I'd get more than this price for our farm is on a good location near school with electricity on main road.
When can we collect this money?
Please do not send my mails to Rocky Mountain House for my address is Taber, Alta. Your letters all go there and it goes astray.
Yours truly,

Terminology

Readers of these historical materials will encounter derogatory references to Japanese Canadians and euphemisms used to obscure the intent and impacts of the internment and dispossession. While these are important realities of the history, the Landscapes of Injustice Research Collective urges users to carefully consider their own terminological choices in writing and speaking about this topic today as we confront past injustice.
