Note: Following is a portion of a letter written by Ethel Bevier to Shirley Gardner about 1958. In it she describes the frontier conditions of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 1906.
" I am going to give you a little ancient history. When I came to Edmonton in 1906, there was not a train that went into Edmonton. We got off the Canadian Pacific at Strathcoma. There was a man with a wide tired wagon with seats along each side. We had the two girls age 2 1/2 and 5 years [Norma and Erma]. My mother and I paid 60 cents each and I believe 25 cents for each girl. We could take our had baggage if we only had a small amount. Out trunks, etc. had to go by another rig. Down the steep hill, across an old wooden bridge. There wasn't anything but dirt roads (I should say mud) and board walks (not very wide). We had to go up this steep hill to Edmonton - 3 miles.
The first place I worked was where the CP depot is now, and it was a lone house in the willows. When I would go home of evenings, I felt afraid of the 3 or 4 blocks where there were no houses, so I used to go home before it started to get dark. There were no cars, no buses, no taxis, only lumber wagons. I have never seen mud like it. I would follow the wagon wheels till it reached the top, then snap off and hit the walk with a crack."
