INDIAN RESIDENTIAL SCHOOLS AND RECONCILIATION Sechelt School June 22 1933 Dear Father I am writing a few lines to let you know things that are going on in the school. I wonder if the chiefs could do something about it. We are not allowed to talk to our parents or any of those who are in the village. We are not even allowed to smile or say hello at them. This school is not a school at all, it is a jail house. Now it is more than a jail. And the food is pig food it is not fit for human beings to eat it. Some [stone?] apple core, rotten spuds and worms and rotten meat and they force us to eat it that why some boys get sick. They don’t like to eat it. That all I can think to say. I can say some more but that all I can tell you.

Now it is more than a jail. And the food is pig food it is not fit for human beings to eat it.
