The ‘Speech Notes’ consist of handwritten notes on Tibet written for a talk Col. Parker was to make to the Royal Overseas League in Victoria, B.C., on 8 May 1961. Included are notes on Tibet’s history, population, Parker’s journeys through the country, Gyantze, Lhasa, religion, trade, troops, and the ‘wheel of life’ among other topics. A second set of notes gives a brief outline of his military life (most in India) up to 1947.
