Walter Hill Moodie was born in Québec City, Québec. In October 1899, at age 28, Moodie enlisted in Kaslo, British Columbia, with the 2nd Bn. R.C.R. He served overseas in South Africa until his discharge in October 1900. The collection currently consists of a series of letters that he wrote during that time back to the Kaslo newspaper the Kootenaian.
