Mr. Mustus, aged 78, is the grandson of Mustus, the first chief of the Sucker Creek Reserve. This is an unusual interview in that he displays fairly positive feelings about the treaty. Also talks of generosity of the H.B.C. storekeeper, sharing problems with white settlers, learning from them, etc. Shows little or no animosity to whitesociety.
