He had a large family. They say it takes three generations to go through a substantial inheritance. In this instance it would seem it was two. JJ had good relations with the Ojibway folk along the Northland route of his Express company—of course it was important he did. ...Amazing what emerges in this internet age. Interesting. A sort of mini-Wells-Fargo experience. Would make a great film for some enterprising Canadian film-maker. ...My oh my. And so the cycle turns.
