Three years previously, her husband had given up his living in Norfolk and crossed the Atlantic to take the post of chaplain to the British forces in Quebec. The records Show that he con ducted regular services in the church of the Recollects in the summer of 1760; and he is credited with having been instrumental in establishing the first English school in the district.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Magazine of Politics, Science, Art and Literature, Vol. 51: May 1918 to October 1918 Inclusive I knew at once that it was not a camp-meeting, for there was no sug gestion of the fervour and solemnity which distinguished such events. There was occasional laughter and cheering, but I thought that some of those who listened did not like the behaviour of their neighbours. I was interested in the statement of the speaker that wherever he had gone throughout the county he found that someone else had been there, and that many calves and steers had been bought at very high figures. Who was this mysterious person? Why should he buy calves and steers? Why should be pay such high prices? Finally the speaker sat down to much clapping and cheering. Another man arose, and there was even more cheering. As he spoke it was remarkable that he agreed with nothing that the first speaker had said, while those who had been silent now became happy and demonstrative. But the light was breaking. I recalled many a fireside controversy, and almost instinctively I. Knew what game they were playing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Magazine of Politics, Science, Art and Literature, Vol. 49: May, 1917, to October, 1917, Inclusive I have elaborated on what might be considered merely an introduction, because nothing done by the women of England can be considered by a Canadian in the light of Canadian experience alone. This description of conditions pre cluding complete participation by the English woman in the war work open to her frees me for a general state ment without prejudice, omitting for the moment consideration of her handicaps. I am prepared to say that not all the better class women of England have done in the aggregate what a tenth their number of Can adian women would have accomplish ed in the same time. They have not taken to knitting for several reasons. Those who are keenly anxious to do effective war work without delay have not the patience to learn; and those who have but yielded to the prevail ing fashion do not, see in quiet knit ting that which will return them full credit for their energy. Also, there are still those in whose mind con tinnes the almost unsuspected impres sion that knitting is for a lower class. In a whole year I have seen only one English woman knitting. It is the women of the lower classes who have responded in a manner that calls for no qualifications, no condi tions, and not alone for the high wages their work now brings them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Magazine of Politics, Science, Art and Literature, Vol. 21: May, 1903, to October, 1903, Inclusive The great charm of Shanghai lies in the constant sudden transition from Europe to China and back again. From the narrow, picturesque shopping streets, with curious signs and carvings of quaint device, and their men and women in costumes of varied hue, it is but a step or two and you are in England, France or America, as the case may be. Each has her Colony, and in each the customs of the country are distinctly apparent. England and things English, however, have the predominance. My first impressions of Shanghai were obtained, as those of most people, from the comfortable scat of a locally built carriage. The hire of a smart victoria, a rubber-tired brougham, two ponies - to allow of frequent changing - two "mafoos" in flowing gaily-trimmed gowns and capes, red-tasselled headgear and streaming pigtails, amounts to only thirty dollars per month. The natural consequence is that Europeans seldom walk. Driving on Bubbling Well Road in the afternoon, especially on Hunt days, and seeing the great number of well-dressed women, handsome men and fine horses, it is difficult to believe oneself out of England. The connecting link, about a mile long, between the fashionable Bubbling Well Road and the Bund or river front, is Nankin Road, or, as it is generally called, the "Maloo." This is lined most of the distance with native shops which gradually give place to some very handsome European ones, ending at Shanghai's greatest glory, her Bund. Handsome clubs, banks, hongs and residences embellish one side, whilst between it and the river lies a beautiful stretch of green sward and shade trees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Magazine of Politics, Science, Art and Literature, Vol. 6: November, 1895, to April, 1896 Inclusive The Kingston Penitentiary of today stands in the front rank of the Penal Institutions of the world. Situated at the foot of Lake Ontario, at the entrance to the mighty St. Lawrence, its natural position is most picturesque, and unsurpassed by that of any other public institution on the continent. Its Establishment. In 1834 Royal consent was obtained and a bill passed authorizing the construction of a Penitentiary. The following year, a wooden structure enclosed in a palisade wall was built. In June of this year six men were incarcerated for larceny, and in October three women arrived to serve terms for similar offences. At the close of the first year fifty-two men and three women were confined in the Penitentiary. In those early days the men were employed in breaking stone, which was used on the roads of the district. From this date improvements in the buildings etc. began to be made. In 1845 the present wall surrounding the institution was built. It encloses eleven acres of ground, is twenty-five feet high and is constructed of limestone quarried on the property. The northern group of buildings containing the Deputy Warden's residence, cells, dome, offices, chapels, dining-hall, kitchen, female prison, library and hospital, were also built at this time, and like the wall are constructed of the native limestone. At that time when the penitentiary was first gaining magnitude it was also used as a military prison and was conducted on military principles, the keepers and guards being chosen from the regiments then stationed at Kingston. The first warden was Mr. H. Smith, and the workings of the institution were controlled by a board of inspectors. The treatment of prisoners was very severe and the cat-o'-nine-tails played an important part in the punishment of refractory convicts. This in fact, continued until more recent years and it was not until the appointment of the late John Creighton, as warden, that more humane principles of government were instituted to any extent. The Fenian Prisoners. Perhaps the most turbulent times in the history of the Institution were the years that followed the Fenian Raid of 1866, when the Fenian prisoners captured at Ridgeway were incarcerated there. Many of these men were the most troublesome ever confined in the Penitentiary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Magazine of Politics, Science, Art and Literature, Vol. 22: November, 1903 April, 1904, Inclusive From this time nearly all Mr. Reid's painting, though by no means all his art, has been confined to mural decor ations. The first of these were the paintings in the new municipal build ings in Toronto, and were the artist's gift to the city. They consist of two large panels picturing pioneer life in Canada, and of the figures filling the spandrels of the arches that come between the panels. This was in itself pioneer work, beset with difficulties, and meeting with faint praise in some directions, but work which opened the way for others than himself, and which has proved a factor in the forming of public taste. In the treatment of these paintings Mr. Reid has so adapt ed his colour scheme so that it forms a pleasing part of a whole, toning in with the warm pinks and greys of the surrounding marble.
