He was sent to Alberta to work with the Indians in the Grouard and Fort Vermilion areas, and learned both the Beaver and Cree languages. He was next sent to the missions centering around Fort St. John, British Columbia, however his territory encompassed north to Fort Nelson; east and south into the Beaverlodge and Grande Prairie regions of Alberta; west to Moberly Lake, British Columbia; and northwest to the Half Way reserve on the Half Way River, British Columbia.
