Abstract
Bell (MP) reports that the Indians at Pine Tree, Indian Harbour, and Pictou Landing are "impovershed" of lands where they can cut firewood and as a consequence are trespassing on white lands to cut firewood. Says firewood is a necesity of life for Indians and more land should be given for firewood.
