Summary:An orphan boy holding an armful of husky puppies on the vessel ''Strathcona''. This collection includes 23 hand-coloured and 36 black and white lantern slides showing Dr. Grenfell's work in St. Anthony and Conche in Newfoundland, Battle Harbour and Indian Harbour in Labrador as well as Harrington Harbour in Quebec.
