- June 2013: He was investigated in 1909 for pocketing money intended for labourers and merchants and producing inaccurate accounts. He allegedly collaborated with others to bribe Fort William First Nation members with cash and whiskey to secure a land surrender. The Department of Indian Affairs terminated his employment in April 1910 and attempted to recoup financial losses from him.[1]
Notes
Possibly the same person as Neil McDougall, an existing page of the same name; the Anishinabek News article does not say.
