Arthur Silver Morton was born on 16 May 1870 at the village of Iere, Trinidad, British West Indies, the son of Nova Scotian missionaries. With a scholarship from the Government of the Island, he entered the University of Edinburgh, eventually receiving both an MA and a BDiv. In 1896, after a summer of study at the University of Berlin, Morton arrived in Canada and was ordained by the Presbytery of St. John, New Brunswick. He served as a minister until 1904 when he started his career as a lecturer in church history, first at the Presbyterian College in Halifax, and later Knox College in Toronto. Morton came to the University of Saskatchewan in 1914 and served both as head of the History Department and University Librarian until his retirement in 1940. Upon arriving in Saskatoon, Morton embarked on the study of Western Canadian History and the preservation of the region's historical documents and historic sites. Over the next four decades he published several books; among his best known works are A History of the Canadian West to 1870-71, History of Prairie Settlement, Under Western Skies, and The Life Sir George Simpson. Morton received many honours during his career including a Doctor of Divinity from Pine Hill College (1922); an LLD from the University of Saskatchewan (1941), election as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (1932), and appointments as Keeper of Provincial Records (1937) and Provincial Archivist (1943). Upon his retirement he was named Professor Emeritus. Morton died 26 January 1945.

The Gitche Wa Teepee (Great White House) of Capt.E.M. Pierce in Cannington Manor. Built in 1883-84; portion on left was added later (note small windows in upper storey of the cubicles of the farm pupils.) The house was built of logs and covered with siding. Cupola on top holds the bell which was used to call the men from the fields; this was the second bell in Cannington, the first being that of the church which is still in position. This one is now in the Anglican church at Manor. Out buildings and stables to right; close to the house in case of blizzards. Artist unknown; his monogram is unreadable. The original sketch is in the Archive in Regina; it was supplied by Mrs. Irene (Pierce) Manion of Tulameen, B.C. and maybe the only surviving picture of the house.
