Mr. Ai Adachi to The Custodian Office, 28 September 1944

File No. 10583

R. R. #5, St. Thomas, Ont. Sept. 28/44.

The Custodian Office, Vancouver, B. C. Dear Sir:

Concerning our property of 739 McGrath Rd., Rosedale, B. C. , which we received word awhile back that it is sold under the Veterans' Land Act. We are not satisfied with the sale of property, especially the low price of the land, which is not justifing.

Also could you please tell us if and where we can get some of our personal things, such as pictures etc., which we had moved from our place.

Yours truly,

"Mr. Ai Adachi"

c/o Bannockburn Farms,

R. R. #5,

St. Thomas, Ont.

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.
