Liberty

Google "Slumach" on the Web site and you'll find a posting dated 11 November offering for sale Liberty - Canada's Young Family Magazine of July 1956" Containing an article with the title ... "The Gold Mine Murders of Nine British Columbian Women - John Slumach, a full -blooded Salish Indian, was hung for the crimes." 
The asking price for the old magazine is $149.95 CDN. For one moment I thought to have found something new though the price was prohibitive. Fortunately the text of the article written by C.V. Tench is already part  of the collection. You can read the gruesome details when you click here.
