«Alfred
Brulé (?)
Killed accidentally at Diver
(T&O, O, Ry) while working in the bush a man supposed to be Alfred Brulé,
aged about 40 years, said to have formerly belonged to Three Rivers Que. He has
no friends here. The Parish Priest of Three Rivers states that he is unknown
there. He received christian burial in St. Mary's cemetery North bay, October
3rd 1906
J.J. O'Brien».
Dans la marge, on peut lire l'annotation suivante :
«Note: It was found that his family live in
St. Alexis des Monts County of Maskinongé Que. His brother Joseph came to N.
Bay but decided to let the body remain here».
Un bel exemple qui illustre la difficulté pour le prêtre
officiant d'identifier une personne qui n'est pas un résident permanent d'un
endroit; les démarches et le recours à des témoignages n'ont donné ici aucun
résultat avant de l'inhumation.
