Albert tells a story about this grave. Here a young Dene man known for his piety is buried. The recent fires of July 2015 have blackened the area surrounding the cemetery but the cemetery grounds were not touched. Nearby stood a
Catholic church (now demolished) and a Hudson's Bay Company Post which burned in 1936.
