The colonial despatches of Vancouver Island and British Columbia 1846-1871
Gale, Reverend William
Gale is mentioned as one of Aldrich's references in his private letter to Lytton enquiring about an appointment in the recently established New Colony of British Columbia.1 According to Aldrich, the reverend was formerly of Beaufrie Hall near Wisbeach and the brother of Townley, who represented the county of Cambridge in several parliaments.2
