Original Toronto Star caption: At old Fort William: Oxen leave the fort to pick up cargo at the wharf, exactly as they did centuries ago. The fort, home of the Northwest Company, has been restored and today is a working fort that shows visitors how the traders lived and carried on the fur trade in the 17th century.
