Correspondence 1894 - 1896 to Abée Charles Jos. Roy, Curator of the Musée Numismatique de la Séminaire de Sherbrooke. We will begin this section of our auction with a lot of most interesting documents dated from 1893 - 1896, the personal correspondence of the Abbé Charles J. Roy, Curator of the Musée Numismatique or Musée de Monnaie of the Séminaire St. Charles Borromé de Sherbrooke. While we have not been able to properly research this little treasure trove, a quick examination shows this as a fascinating documentation of the foundation and building of the museum. Much attention is paid to the acquisition from other institutions of examples of their internal Bank issues, which are exactly the notes in the lots that follow. This also aids us in approximately dating these notes. There is considerable correspondence from F. R. E. Campeau, F. X. Paquet, Ludger Gravel, J. O Marchand. , E. A. Cardinal, as well as letters from the Library of Parliament, Inland Revenue (the forerunner of Revenue Canada), postcards, etc. , Unsorted and unorganized. as is.
