- W2082400066 abstract "In the spring of 1857 Her Majesty9s Government, at the suggestion of the Royal Geographical Society, constituted an expedition to explore the British Territories in Worth America lying in the neighbourhood of the boundary-line of the United States, and stretching westward from Lake Superior. Public attention was at that time directed to the nature and resources of the vast territory which had been ceded to the keeping of the Hudson9s Eay Fur Company, as there was a prospect of its being to some extent thrown open to colonization by the lapse of part of that Company9s rights. Principally through the efforts of Sir Roderick Murchison (at that time President of the Royal Geographical Society), General Sabine (acting for the Royal Society), Sir W. Hooker and Dr. Hooker, and of Mr. Ball (then Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies), the Expedition was organized and committed to the charge of Captain Palliser, whose previous adventurous travels in that region had given assurance of the ability and energy necessary to penetrate unexplored country, and to preserve a friendly footing with the savage tribes that were to be encountered. I was selected by Sir Eoderick Murchison to accompany this Expedition in the combined capacity of surgeon and geologist; and, at the request of Government, he furnished me with instructions as to how I should turn to best advantage my opportunities for geological research." @default.
