Spirit-of-iron (Manitou-pewabic)

SPIRIT-OF-IRON
HARWOOD STEELE
He is a living link with the Empire's great traditions, with the blood of British heroes in his veins ... the personification of the best type of British officer, whose soul is in his corps, who thinks only of the steep and narrow path of Duty ... the embodiment, in one individuality, of the entire North-West Mounted Police ... the embodiment of Western Canada. Out there, they call him by the name the Indians gave him—Manitou-pewabic—a tribute to his personality, for the phrase means 'Spirit-of-Iron.' Surely this is the spirit which has made, not only the man, but the Force to which he belongs and the country which is its environment—Spirit-of-Iron!
