60-year-old letters between trapper John Tetso and unlikely pen pal donated to memorial library

The librarian of the John Tetso Memorial Library in Fort Simpson, N.W.T., was surprised by the donation of 60-year-old correspondences between trapper John Tetso and a pen pal from the prominent Molson family. Tetso wrote one of the first autobiographies documenting life in the bush, and this donation elaborates upon his life and legacy.
