He is best known as being one of the survivors of the Frog Lake Massacre, and his book The War Trail of Big Bear that recounts his experiences of the massacre and his captivity.[1] In 1885 he was working as a clerk for the Hudson's Bay Company store at Frog Lake, then in the District of Saskatchewan of the Northwest Territories. He survived the Frog Lake Massacre of the North-West Rebellion on April 2, 1885 and was held captive for two months by Big Bear's band of Cree.[2][3] After being freed he was attached to Major General Strange's column and later was awarded the North West Canada Medal for his role as a scout and guide.(pages 51–52)[4][4][5] Cameron was in Regina in 1885 during the trial of Big Bear where he testified in Big Bear's defence. He testified he had heard Big Bear try to stop the massacre at Frog Lake.[6] He also founded and edited the newspaper Vermilion Signal, served on the town council of Vermilion, Alberta, and was briefly editor of the magazine Field and Stream, New York.[7] He died in Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan on March 4, 1951, of double pneumonia at age 88. The inscription on his headstone reads "G. Scout, William B. Cameron, Northwest Field Force, 4th March, 1951—Rest In Peace."(p. 155)[8] Books
