In today's episode, we join John McIssac and  Margaret 'Peggy' Farnell (O'Conner) for the first part of their September 20th, 1984 interview.  Farnell, a veteran of William Stevenson's security services during the Second World War and later librarian at the University of Alberta, describes her childhood and education as a child of one of Edmonton's wealthy pre-World War One business elites. 

This interview was originally recorded on a 5 inch open reel tape and was digitized by an archivist on March 24th, 2021.

These interviews were recorded in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Both social attitudes and language standards have changed since that time. Some opinions expressed and language used may be offensive to listeners today.
