BAMFIELD is a community that is surrounded by Crown Land, Indian Reserves, and portions of the Pacific Rim National Park, located on Barkley Sound, Vancouver Island in British Columbia. The community, with a population of 179 as of 2016, is divided by Bamfield Inlet. Bamfield was named after the first government agent of the area, William Eddy Banfield. The name "Bamfield" with an "m" is said to be either due to how the local first nations people had trouble pronouncing the letter n in his name, or a mistake made by the postal organization. In 1902, the Bamfield cable station was constructed as the western terminus of a worldwide undersea telegraph cable called by some the All Red Line as it passed only through countries and territories controlled by the British Empire, which were coloured red on the map. The cable initially went to Fanning Island, a tiny coral atoll in the mid-Pacific, and from there continued to Fiji, New Zealand, and Australia. A second building, made of concrete, was built on the site in 1926 to replace the old wood structure. This building, designated a historic site in 1930, is now used by the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre. A Marine and Fisheries lifesaving station on the Pacific coast was established at Bamfield in 1907. It was the first lifesaving station on Canada's Pacific Coast.

Correctly spelled "Banfield Creek" on subsequent editions. "When the Post Office opened in May 1903, the name was spelled with an "m", and it has remained so ever since.."

Addressed to: Miss E. Topping / Ballinskelligs / Co. Kerry / Ireland
This was most likely Ethel Winifred Bettany (b. 1879) who was living with the Frederick William Topping family in Ballinskelligs Co. Kerry Ireland.
FREDERICK WILLIAM TOPPING was born in London in 1851. As a young man he joined the Eastern Telegraph Cable Company at Porthcurnow, Cornwall, where he remained six months. He was then appointed a member of the expedition staff to India under Lord Kelvin (then Sir William Thomson). After three years spent at this work both in Madras and Singapore he returned to England. It was his intention to return to India, but on his arrival he was offered the position of clerk in charge at the Direct United States Cable Co.'s station at Ballinskellings, where Messrs. Siemens Brothers were bringing the cable into the bay, which is the most southerly point in Ireland. A few years later, before he was 30 years of age, he was offered the position of superintendent of that station; this he accepted and held for nearly 40 years, until he retired with a pension in 1910 and went to live at Paignton, Devonshire. His death occurred at Penzance on the 24th February, 1922.
Ballinskelligs, officially Baile an Sceilg (Irish for "Place (town) of the craggy rock") is an area in the south-west of the Iveragh peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland, within the Gaeltacht. The townland is in the Civil Parish of Prior and was in the Poor law union of Cahersiveen. The rocks referred to in the area’s Irish name are the Skellig Islands—Skellig Michael and Little Skellig—an ancient monastic colony which lies off the coast from Ballinskelligs. The town is also the site of a beach, the ruins of Ballinskelligs Priory of Augustinian Canons Regular, and the remains of Ballinskelligs Castle. The population in 2011 was 375.
