• Note*: 17 January 1895; Oshawa, Ontario; "Mr. Daniel Hinkson was interviewed by the writer on the 17th of January 1895. He was far from being in his usual good health, but possessing a keen recollection of the growth of Oshawa and the surrounding county. He is the writer's authority for the preceding facts regarding his father, mother, brothers and sisters. Mr. Hinkson's boyhood was spent in the forest days of Oshawa. He remembers when tons of salmon were caught some seasons in the Oshawa Creek but a short step from his home. He many times saw Indians encamped in the flats of the creek below the present track of the Grand Trunk Railway. Their
  wigwams, upright poles stuck in the ground and covered with cedar boughs were frequently to be seen in that place. The valley of the creek down to the marsh was a favourite trapping place. The Indians catched large numbers of muskrats and minks there the hind quarter of which when skinned made a dainty meal, of which the Indians appeared to be very fond." from Samuel Pedlar Manuscript, Frame 233. ... and ...
  "FRAME 234 Mr. Daniel Hinkson being asked if he ever met the old chief Wab-bok-ish-ego replied that he remembered seeing him quite frequently. When he saw him last his hair which were tinged with grey fell in masses over his back and shoulders, while his features wore a pinched wrinkled expression. A man
  of medium figure but exceedingly active for his age. He said the old chief knew Uncle David Annis very well and always asked about him." from Samuel Pedlar Manuscrtpt, Frame 234.
