item 5: Letter from Arch. McCallum addressed to his brother
"William Mac Cormick / Puslinch / Lot 19th First Concession
/ near Galt / upper Canada / America", and dated
Campbeltown [Argyll, Scotland], 3rd March 1843. Letter
tells of the economic situation in and around Campbeltown
which is forcing many to think of going to America (i.e.
Canada), the author's suspicions about the discontentedness
of Puslinch Township residents, and of John Clark (who was
sitting in same room as author at time of writing) who was
having hassles in obtaining rights to land in Puslinch
Township due to the unreliability of his brother and of
Norman Ramsey who settled around Galt [Norman Ramsay listed
in Puslinch Twp. on 1851 Census] 2 pages, double sided.
Document is very fragile and has come away at the creases,
and portions are missing at time of accession. A note
written by the compiler and found with the letter reads,
"A delicate leter 1843 from his brother-in-law in scotland
McCallum to my paternal great grandfather William in
Puslinch, pleading for assistance for John Clark, my
maternal great great grand-father who was having difficulty
in getting title to his late brother James' land in
Puslinch".

item 7: Letter from Archibald McCormick of Campbelton, Argyll,
Scotland, addressed to his son William McCormick, Township
of Puslinch, Lot 15 First Concession / Destrict of gore
Near Galt / Upper Canada / N. America", postmarked
Campbelton 09 May 1845, and Guelph July 1845. Re. Mrs.
McCormick (William's mother) doing very poorly due to lack
of breath and depression since her family went to Canada,
the author's disappointment at not being told by William of
Niel's death (of which he was informed by Donald
McTaggart), widespread fever that had affected most of
the family and had killed Alexander McCallum in Witchburn,
the author's attempt to get to Canada which was thrwarted
on the day he was to leave when his money was "stoped", the
author requesting money from friends and family in order
that he can emigrate, information re. the McTaggart family,
and Genat [Janet?] McQuilkan. It is concluded, "I hop[e] on
god this is the last letter all [sic] send to you from
Scotland. I am your loving father till Death, Archd
McCormick". 2 pages, double sided.

and the fact he emigrated to Canada in 1845
