Abstract
Sepia colored photograph of the interior of St. Pete's Pro-Cathedral in Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan. An organ can be seen in front and centre of the isle. According to Wikipedia in anticipation of its presumed eventual urban importance the Anglican ecclesiastical province of Ruperts Land designated the village of Qu'Appelle as the cathedral city of the new diocese of Qu'Appelle of the Church of England (since 1955 the Anglican Church of Canada).[18] The diocese of Qu'Appelle still retains that name, though the historic association with the town of Qu'Appelle other than as a subsidiary congregation of the parish of Indian Head is long past. St Peter's, the pro-cathedral, was built in 1885. Its stone rectory next door is now in private hands, the church (as with the other three denominations) having long since withdrawn any full-time residential clergy from the town. Bishop Adelbert Anson, the first Bishop of Qu'Appelle (1884), cultivated a relationship between Qu'Appelle and his home Diocese of Lichfield in England and with wealthy friends there.
