Bruederfeld and Bruederheim: Moravian Settlements of German Russians, in Alberta, Canada; Extracts from the Report of an Official Visitation, November to December (Classic Reprint)

Lite the erprise W. L. BRUEDERFELD AND BRUEDERHEIM. AT the request of my colleagues in the Provincial Eldersâ Conference and in the Provincial Board of Church Extension, and with the cordial assent of my colleague in the pastorate-my kind associates assuming routine duties reluctantly dropped-I set out on the 4th of November, 1895, for an oilicial inspection of our recently organized work in the Edmonton district, A lberta, Western Canada. It was felt, not only, that personal acquaintance was requisite for an intelligent control of the course of affairs there, it was deemed wise, also, to investigate matters at a season which would give the most correct idea of actual conditions, of present prospects and of possible demands. The item of expense offered a serious drawback, but on mature deliberation was regarded as fully warranted by the exigencies of the case. Thirty days were given to the visitation; of these, three were spent at Winnipeg, two at Edmonton, five at Bruederfeld, five at Bruederheim, and fifteen in travel.
