The Dept. of the Secretary of State,

Vancouver, B.C. Dear Sir:

I have received your cheque, the amount of whih is eight hundred twenty six dollars and forty seven cents. ($826.47)

I find this sale very unsatisfactory, but will deposit this cheque in the Royal Bank of Canada, (Vernon Branch). I am waiting until the financial loss survey is completed before I attempt to do anything.

This ackowledgement does not mean that I am satisfied with the amount for which my property was sold. If you wish this cheque to be returned, please notify me.

Yours truly,

G Sawayama

G. Sawayama,

Reg. No. 14338

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.
