Alice Bulmer fonds

  • CA MtA 0051
  • Fonds
  • 1920-1945

Fonds consists of diaries kept by Alice Bulmer, who lived at Aulac, New Brunswick, on the Cumberland ridge near the site of Fort Beausejour.

Fonds consists of an Ontario Business College Student’s Guide (1891) and several exercise books. The exercise books, used by MacMeekin, are examples of a student’s work in the newly revived Academy Commercial program.
