Notes

John Munro died at the age of 22 years, while working as a logger for Porcupine Hill Logging at Rat Portage, Ontario. He contacted Typhoid Fever and was brought out on dog sled by a group of fellow Indian loggers, walking day and night to the hospital in Sudbury, Ontario, where he later died.
