The family settled at York Colony (later Yorkton, Saskatchewan) the following year. Garry served in the Home Guard during the North-West Rebellion of 1885. He worked at a nearby grist mill for two years before finding work at a ranch; Garry later bought the ranch for himself. In 1900, he married Nellie Sharp. Garry was defeated by Alan Carl Stewart when he ran for reelection to the Saskatchewan assembly in 1929.^[3] He died at the age of 92.^[2]
