Title
'Our Unfortunate Hungarians': Early Hungarian Settlement in Montreal. A Speech by Mária Bagossy Fehér
Abstract
The author introduces a speech by Mária Bagossy Fehér, given in 1935, which details the lives of Hungarian immigrants living in Montreal in the 1920s and 1930s. Mária Bagossy Fehér was the wife of Mihály Fehér, the pastor of Montreal's newly-established Hungarian Reformed congregation. She came to Canada in 1928 to join her husband in Montreal. In 1935 she returned to Hungary for a visit, and it was during her stay there that she gave an account of her experiences to an audience made up of her Hungarian acquaintances, former schoolmates and teachers.
