Tolmie (W. F.) — Continued. 



William Eraser Tolmie was born at Invei"-- 

 ness, Scotland, February 3, 1812, and died De- 

 cember 8, 1886, afteranillnessof only threedays, 

 at his residence, Cloverdale, Victoria, B. C. He 

 was educated at Glasgow University, where he 

 graduated in August, 1832. On September 12 

 of the same year he accepted a position as sur- 

 geon and clerk with the Hudson's Bay Com- 

 p.any, and left home for the Columbia River, 

 arriving in Vancouver in the spring of 1833. 

 Vancouver was then the chief post of the Hud- 

 son's Bay Company on this coast. In 1841 he 

 visited his native land, but returned in 1842 

 overland via the plains and the Columbia, and 

 was placed in charge of the Hudson's Bay posts 

 on Puget Sound. He here took a prominent part, 

 during the Indian war of 1855-'56, in pacifying 

 the Indians. Being an excellent linguist, he 

 had acquired a knowledgeof the native tongues 

 and was instrumental in bringing about peace 

 between the Americans and the Indians. He 

 was appointed chief factor of the Hudson's Bay 

 Company in 1855, removed to Vancouver Island 

 in 1859, when he went into stock-raising, being 

 the first to introduce thoroughbred stock iuto 

 British Columbia ; was a member of the local 

 legislature two terms, until 1578 ; was a member 

 of the first board of education for several yeare, 

 exercising a great interest in educational mat- 

 ters ; held many oflices of trust, and was always 

 a valued and respected citizen. 



Mr. Tohuie was known to ethnologists for his 

 contributions to the historj- and linguistics of 

 the native races of the West Coast, and dated 

 his interest in ethnological matters from his 

 contact with Mr. Horatio Hale, who visited the 

 West Coast as an ethnologist to the Wilkes 

 exploring expedition. He afterwards trans- 

 mitted vocabularies of a number of the tribes 

 to Dr. Scouler and to Mr. George Gibbs, some 

 of which were published in Contributions to 

 North American Ethnology. In 1884 he pub- 

 lished, iu conjunction with Dr. G. M. Dawson, a 

 nearly complete series of short vocabularies of 

 the principal languages met with in British 

 Columbia, and his name is to be found fre- 

 quently quoted as an ajithority on the history of 

 the Northwest Coast and its ethnology. He fre- 

 quently contributed to the press upon public 

 questions and events now historical.
