The cairn is a few hundred

In unveiling the marker, Mr.
Makaroff, who was among the
Doukhobors who came to Cana-
da in 1898, said he hoped the
recognition given his people
by the government would be a
“rededication of our efforts in
the cause of peace.

“It seems to be that sooner
or later humanity will learn to
accept Christ’s teachings that we
must love one another as broth-
ers.”

The erection of the stone
cairn was the first time Doukho-

, bors had ever been Honored ‘by
any government, he said. '

Now there are more than
8,000 Doukhobors in Saskatchew-
an and according to Mr. Makar-
off, “Saskatchewan has been the
spot where we have stayed the
Yengest.”
