  • Summary

  • In August of 1866, Dally accompanied the Governor of the Colony, Arthur Edward Kennedy, aboard the H.M.S. Scout as they circumnavigated Vancouver Island and stopped off at many First Nations villages. His photographs taken on this trip especially those from Fort Rupert (Port Hardy), Comox, Cowichan, and Nanaimo were outstanding and continue to provide valuable anthropological evidence even today.

    The following year, in 1867, Dally made a month-long trip up the Cariboo Wagon Road to Barkerville and the Cariboo gold fields. He took photographs all along the route as well as recording images of Barkerville itself and the mining operations in the vicinity of Williams Creek.
