Some of his Research on Calgary James 'Jimmy' Smith who Donated The First Funds for Calgary General Hospital 6 Feb 2003 got a new headstone as he was recorded in the earliest Union Cemetery Register simply as 'James Smith, Chinaman', lay, at the time of this original research, in an obscure gravesite, unmarked as well as necessarily unwalled, now in death truly alone and forgotten at last, as never in life. Nursed by Eliza Hoad
Jimmy's first boss Joseph Salterio photographer Alexander Ross of first spike fame, took a picture of Joseph Lincoln Salterio, b. 14 Feb 1890, infant son to Joseph Salterio sitting on Jimmy's lap.
Earl Joseph Salterio attended 6 Sep 2003 ceremony with said picture. Jimmy's solicitor Sir James Alexander Lougheed

Alexander Mackinnon Burgess 1850-1898 thrown off his horse 18 Jun 1884 his physician Dr John Sweetland 1835-1907. Col James Walker 1846-1936 allowed his property as a place for recooperation as local Fort Calgary's infirmary Hospital was deemed too primitive. 'Walker Estate' on the future site of the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary, for nearly three further weeks. Talk of an exhibition needed lead to Agricultural Society, (the direct forerunner of today's Calgary Exhibition and Stampede Board), was formed 22 August 1884. Led by Augustus Carney, whose property is now Union Cemetery.
Forgotten in the shuffle, despite all the equine emphasis ever since, has been the nondescript old pony who, through an unanticipated act of indignation, spontaneously started it all back in 1884!
