Old photograph of Calgary Bay, Isle of Mull, Scotland. On the East side of the bay Calgary House was built in 1817. Colonel James MacLeod, Commissioner of the North-West Mounted Police, was a summer guest here. In 1876, shortly after returning to Canada, he suggested its name for Fort Calgary which gave rise to the city of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
