Printed by John Loveil & Son.

Entered according to Act of Parliament of Canada, in the year one thousand
eight hundred and ninety four, by F. W. Terrill, B.A., at the office of
the Minister of Agricultnre at Ottawa.

INTRODUCTION.

The following work includes Calendars of 174 years, past and future, ex
tending from A. D. 1752 to 1925, with chronological notes of Canadian his
tory, biography and statistics, and sketches of a number of financial and
commercial houses.
The modern Calendars will commend themselves to all who weigh evidence,
•examine titles, prepare briefs or regulate accounts. The earlier ones will
enable students of history to reconcile or correct dates, immediately before
and after adoption of the New Style, in England, and occasionally to disprove
erroneous statements in modern history. The Calendars of the future will be
useful to Almanac-makers, publishers and public officials, and will facilitate
making bonds mature on week-days rather than on Sundays.
No other hundred and forty-one years in recent times has been equally
eventful with the last, for Canada and the World in general.
At the date mentioned Canada was still a French colony, tolerant of slavery,
an institution which was then protected by law, even in Puritan Connec
ticut ; and the now peace-loving French Canadian was warlike and aggressive.
As though anticipating inventions, which seem to annihilate space, Eng
land's adoption of the prevailing mode of reckoning time was opportune.
If it is starthng to receive a telegram, what would it have been to find it
ante or post-dated by eleven days ?
Until 1752, the year began on the 2Sth of March, in England, and on the
ist of January, in Scotland.
In the interval between these two new year's days, England appeared to
be a year behind Scotland and was eleven days behind Cathohc countries.
As an illustration of the consequent inconvenience, Addison's Essay No. 21,
in the Spectator, bore dual date, " Saturday, March 24th, 1710-11," the " 11"
being complimentary to Scotch, readers. The next day (25th of March)
being both New Year's day and Sunday, the next Essay, No. 22 (by Steele),
was dated Monday, March 26th, 17 11, the year being then common to the
two countries.

A bare glance at the following double dates of foreign correspondence
"Paris, gsth April, o. s. 1722," and " Tuesday ,-1. May, 1722," will show how
• gthMay, N.b. ' ' ' _ -"12 .
fruitful of mistakes must have been the disagreement, to avoid which Statute
24th Geo. II provided that the next natural day after the second of Septem
ber, 1752, should be the 14th. Thus the saying that no one, in England,
drew breath between the second and the fourteenth of September, 1752, is
true. This hiatus causes the Calendar of that month to have a lean
appearance, and is otherwise remarkable, for, from the ist of January to
midnight of the 24th of March, the only change was the substitution of 1752
for 1751 ; from midnight of the 2nd of March to midnight dividing the 2nd
and 14th of September, the Calendar of 1752 was (with the exception of
the hiatui) exactly as if there had been no legislation ; and, beginning with
the last mentioned date, continuously to the present time, the Gregorian
Calendar entirely replaced the Julian.
An Act of Parliament extended the new Style to the British possessions
in Asia, Africa and America, so the thirteen colonies had, from Great Bri-
itain, the style of supputation which French colonists brought to Canada.
Among numerous advantages of complete over abbreviated, or perpetual
Calendars, the former prove each other, are more quickly used and do not
induce mistakes. A so-called perpetual Calendar, lately in use by one of the
wealthiest men in Canada, makes A.D. 1900 a leap year, contrary to the Act
above cited, under which, years divisible by 100, and riot by 400, are not
bissextile. Among the convenient tests of Calendars are the Journals of the House of
Commons, according to which Parliament sat on- Friday (" ^/« veneris "\
the 31st of January, 1752; the 31st of October, 1752, fell on Tuesday,
(" dies Martis"), and the i ith of January, 1753, on Thursday (" dies Jovis").
Every Essay in the Rambler furnishes a test, e.g., essay number 207
bears date Tuesday, loth of March, 1752. Burrows' Law Reports afford
many dates, from Monday, 8th November, 1756 to 1772. Another authentic
date is the U. S. Declaration of Independence, on Thursday, the 4th of
July, 1776. Reckoning from any known point, since 1752, and observing
that the first and last days of common years fall on the bame week-day and
the first and last days of leap years on succeeding week-days, that 1800 was
not, and 1900 will not be, a leap year, one can speedily assure himself that
these Calendars have been rightly calculated. They have been compared
with partial Calendars of 5 4 years, from 1805 to 1859, calculated by the late
Reverend Moses Lopez, of Newport, Rhode Island, with the Quebec
Almanacof 1827, Armour's Montreal Almanac of 1829, Stark's Almanacs

from 1842, and with Brooks' and Miller's Almanacs from later dates. To
illustrate the use of Calendars in testing history : on page 132 of Sandham's
" Montreal," the breaking out of the City's most devastating fire is dated
Thursday, July 9th (1852), but the 9th was Friday. The inference is that
the honored author of that valuable work connected the day of the month, on
which the news was published, with the week-day on which the fire started.
On page 135 of the same work, the celebration ofthe opening of the Grand
Trunk Railway to Portland is stated to have occurred on Monday, i8th
June, 1853, and, as the i8th ac,tually fell on Saturday, and the news was
doubtless published in Montreal on the following Monday, the author has
evidently made the opposite mistake, of joining the right day of the month
and the week-day the news was published.
As Chronology has the advantage over history, that it is less offensive to
state facts than to impute motives, the present notes are brought up to date
and may serve to recall other links in the chain of recent affairs.
The paragraphs concerning Vermont may seem, but are not, disgressive,
for No. XI of the " Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union" invited
Canada "to all the advantages of this Union," while humiliating the New
Hampshire Grantees (Vermonters) by the clause, " butno other colony shall
be admitted into the same, unless such admission be agreed to by nine
States," — nine out of thirteen, whereof two were inimical and one large and
influential. Threatened with invasion by New York, New Hampshire and by Congres
sional forces, as well as from Canada, it is not surprising that leading Ver
monters, with the Governor's approval, discussed, with British officers, terms
of reconcihation, nor that Vermont long deferred accepting a tardy offer of
admission to the Union, nor that, in 181 2, the Governor of Vermont
disapproved of the War which ruined half the merchants and cost half the
shipping of the United States.
Exceptional attention is given to matters of 1829, in order to preserve a
record of facts contained in a semi-official almanac which preceded the
Directories of Montreal, and maybe the only copy extant.
The Calendars of single years generally indicate the holidays ; but, believing
that approximation to the old rule, "Six days shall thou labor and do all thy
work," will lighten the general task ; and learning that the Legislature is about
to abolish one or more of these burthens ofthe rich and poor, the author
avoids the likelihood of misleading the public by attaching existing holidays
to the Calendars of nearly a third of a century to come.

It is hoped that the accompanying statistics, if not of general interest, will
be of value to the economist. They favor Reciprocity of Trade with the
United States ; but in vain, for it was the experience of the Detroit Conven
tion and of the favorable report of a special committee of the New York
Legislature, that the only certain result of sound arguments in favor of
reciprocal trade was to arouse the opposition of every adverse interest.
Short histories and advertisements of some contributors to Canada's com
mercial prosperity will be found arranged according to the years in which
they, or those whose good-will they inherited or acquired, began business.

23rd March (0. S.), — ^John Bushnell publishes the Halifax Gazette, the
first newspaper north of the thirteen Colonies.
17th May (N. S.), — M. de la Jonquiere, Governor of New France, dies
— possessed of £40,000.
— July, — The new Governor, Duquesne, a soldier, being instructed to
prepare for war, keeps the farmers under arms, to the neglect of tillage.
14th Sept. (N. S.), — Under the Old Style of reckoning timCj every year
exactly divisible by 4 had 366 days. As this had the effect of lengthening
the year to such an extent that in the i6th century, New- Year's day fell ten
days later than it should. Pope Gregory XIII influenced Catholic countries
to drop ten days of October, 1582, by way of correcting the Calendar.
Protestant countries delayed making the correction until this century, when
England, tardily following the example of Germany, Denmark, Holland
and Switzerland, cancels eleven days of September, and reckons the four
teenth as the next day after the second of this montii, under a statute passed
last year. Hitherto the year began on the 25th of March, in England ; though,
on the ist of January, in Scotland. To prevent further error, years divisible
by one hundred are not to be leap years, unless also divisible by 400.
Accordingly, A.D. 1900 will not, and 2000 will, be a leap year.
Ten ships, of from 40 to 100 tons burthen, are built for the Canadian trade.

Population of New France, 82,000, of whom only 14,000 are disposable
to meet 60,000 British and Colonial troops.
As Canadian farms lie fallow, 12,000 tons of shipping are required to
provision the country ; and Brifish cruisers may capture the whole.
Montcalm writes that Canada will be Britain's next year ; that a soldier
has made 700,000 livres, and a contractor 2,000,000 ; that some prefer the
country should be taken to having their accounts investigated j that one hign
¦official is improving his fortune, while another intrusts important military
expeditions to his inexperienced brother.
France sends 14 ships and 600 recruits to New France.
Being thanked by the House of Burgesses of Virginia, for the destruction
•of Fort Duquesne, Washington hesitates for a reply; seeing which, the
Speaker says : — " Sit down, sir ; your modesty is equal to your valor, and
that surpasses any language of mine. "
22nd May, — A British fleet approaches Quebec.
28th June, — French fire-ships, intended to burn the British fleet, at Quebec,

8th and 9th Aug., — British guns, on Point Levi, fire the lower town of
Quebec. 13th Sept., —Wolfe lands a force at Fuller's Cove, between i and 2 in
the morning. They climb to the Plains of Abraham. At 6 a. m., Montcalm
is informed that the British have accomphshed what he deemed impossible ;
but discredits the report. With 4,500, he fights about an equal number ; but
his men cannot resist bayonets. Each leader receives a mortal wound.
Wolfe asks an officer to support him so that his followers may not be discour
aged by his fall. An historian says of Wolfe : — " He crowded into a few hours
actions that would have given lustre to length of life ; and, filhng his day with
greatness, completed it before its noon."
Learning that he had but a few hours to live, Montcalm says : — " So much
the better ; I shall not live to see the surrender of Quebec." Turning to
¦de Ramsay he says : — " To your keeping I commend the honor of France ; as
for me, I shall pass the night with God and prepare myself for death."
14th Sept., — Montcalm dies in the Castle of St. Louis.
17th Sept., — Capitulation of Quebec.
i8th Sept.,— The British take possession of Quebec.
14th Nov., — De Levis and De Vaudreuil write, from Montreal, to the
French Government, stating what is requisite to save Canada.
— Praised for success, in America, Pitt replies :—" The more a man is
versed in business, the more he finds the hand of Providence everywhere.''

A. D, 1766.— Continued.
French Canadians are indignant at Enghsh judges' interpretations of
French laws and at their conducting proceedings in the English tongue.
— Apr.,— A report, by the English Crown lawyers, Yorke and De Grey,
says : — " It is a maxim of the law of nations, to allow the old laws, of a van
quished people, to subsist, at least, till their conquerors substitute new, while
it is oppressive and violent to change, suddenly, the laws of any country ;
hence wise conquerors, after having provided for the material security of their
acquisitions, will innovate slowly, and let their subjects retain all such usages
as are indifferent in their nature, especially those which regard the rights of
property." " We cannot introduce among them, at one stroke, Enghsh law of property,
with its forms of conveyancing, alienation, fines, its modes of shaping deeds
and interpreting contracts, or our laws of succession, without committing
manifest wrong, or, at least, occasioning the greatest confusion. English
men, who buy property in Canada, both can and should conform themselves
to the laws regarding it. " They recommend reinstating Gallo-Canadian
civil procedure.

A. D. 1767.
Two years ago. Lord Chancellor Camden declared, respecting the right to
tax America : — " Taxation and representation are inseparable ; this proposi
tion is founded on the laws of Nature ; it is itself a law of Nature ; for what
ever is a man's own is absolutely his own. No man has a right to take it from
him without his consent ; whosoever attempts to do it, attempts an injury;
whosoever does it, commits a robbery. " Yet, he does not oppose a duty
on tea, paper, glass, etc., imported into the Colonies. Canada and Nova
Scotia keep aloof from the troubles which tend to alienate other colonies.
A. D. 1768.
i6th Oct.,— Lord Camden says :— " It is now manifest that the whole
Continent will make common cause. After both sides are half ruined in
the contest, we shall, at last, establish a right which ought never to have
been exerted.
If the Americans are able to practise so much self-denial as to subsist,
only for one twelve-month, without British commodities, I do very much

(Continued from page 31.)
This business has, perhaps^ been longer continued by one family than
any other in Canada. It was founded by Benaiah Gibb, who was born in
Northumberland, in p:ngland, on Tuesday, the 6th of May, 1755; came to
Montreal in 1774, and began business in 1775.
Benaiah Gibb, jr., who succeeded his father, is well remembered for his
munificent bequests to the Art Association of Montreal.
The business afterwards fell to the late James Duncan Gibb, and is now
carried on by his late partners, Alexander, Edward Munro and Lachlan Gibb,
descendents of the founder's brother, which brother also established a busi
ness,— still continued by the Gibb family,— at 19 Royal Exchange, London,
England, well-known to the traveled Montrealer.
The British Coat-of-Arms betokens, besides the Gibbs' nationality, the
liberal patronage of Royalty. The Crown emblemizjs the loyalty Benaiah
Gibb shared with his fellow-citizens, when, in 1775, the city was occupied
by American troops and flooded with seductive proclamations.
An old customer of the Gibbs says : —
" They Never Sell laferior Groods, nor Overcharge or Break a
Promise."
With such a record, dating from a century and eighteen years ago
they have patrons in both hemi-spheres. '

THE MONTREAL GAZETTE.
Though circumstances do not admit of a full account of this old and influen
tial educator of the people of Canada, the chance of preserving a few facts
for some future historian is not to be slighted.
The first number of the Gazette was printed in the old Chateau, on Notre
Dame street, near Jacques Cartier square, where the inferior law courts are
¦now held, and bore date 3rd June, 1778,— less than a year after the thirteen
colonies made their Declaration of Independence.
It was the first newspaper in Montreal, and was started by Fleury Mes-
plet, former employe of Benjamin Franklin.
Though Franklin failed in his mission to Montreal, he paved the way for
Mesplet's success.
The subscription price was 2^ Spanish dollars, per year; single copies, 10
sous. Day of publication, Wednesday.
The following advertisement appeared in the first issue :—

In 1833, Armour & Son (the son being Andrew) were established on the
south side of T.ittle St. James street, near St. Lambert hill, and behind the
the English church. The paper was then tri-weekly, and edited by Andrew
Armour. In the year of the Rebellion (1837) the north-west corner of St-
Frangois Xavier and St. Sacrament streets became the place of publication.
Soon afterwards, Robert Armour's retirement occasioned his son Andrew's
taking Hew Ramsay as a partner ; and, in 1842, Armour & Ramsay had a
printing office, on St. Paul street, two doors west of St. Gabriel street,
enjoying a view ofthe St, Lawrence.
In 1845, Robert Abraharn bought out Armour & Ramsay, and made the
Gazette a daily paper, published on the south side of St. Paul street, one
door west of Custom House square, whence he removed, in 1848, to the south
side of Hospital street, about mid-way between St. John and St. Frangois
Xavier streets.
In 1850, Mr. Abraham sold the paper to Messrs. Ferres and Milne, who
continued its publication where the City & District Savings Bank now stands

and where Messrs. Lowe & Chamberlin, who became proprietors of the
Gazette, in 1856, so increased its circulation that, in i860, larger premises
were required and taken, on St. James street, opposite St. John street.
In 1866, John Lowe, managing director of the Montreal Printing &
Publishing Company, was editor-in-chief of the Gazette, with which the
Evening Telegraph, previously edited by Edmund Parsons, had been
amalgamated. Fortunately for the public, and for all concerned, in 1870, the G.izette
was purchased by the brothers, T. & R. White, natives of Lower Canada>
who had been prepared for ihe enterprise by the successful publication of a
leading paper in Upper Canada, and agreed and understood each other so
well that they made a most prudent division of labor.
The elder brother, Thomas (since the Honorable, but now deceased),
united an economist's knowledge of statistics, a statesman's grasp of public
and international affairs and a happy and vigorous style, which made
the Gazette's leading articles the study of commercial men and of politicians.
Richard White, on the other hand, though probably a readier and, possibly,
an tqu.illy trenchant writer, being also a thorough man of business, took the

LYMAN, SONS & CO.
The pioneer drug house of Canada was established, as a retail business.

by Messrs. Wadsworth and Lyman, in the year 1800, and, after passing
through several changes in the personnel of the firm, became a wholesale
business as early as the year 1829, though a retail department was
continued in connection with the establishment until after Confederation.
At that time the firm was Hedge & Lyman, which had been formed in 1816,
and the [.subsequent changes of name were William Lyman & Co. in 1836,
Lymans, Savage & Co. in 1855 (at which date the main building of their
present commodious premises was erected), Lymans, Clare & Co. in i860,
and Lyman, Sons & Co. in 1879.
A large, perhaps the chief, part of the business of the house consists in
the importation and sale of drugs, chemicals, druggists' sundries, pro
prietary medicines, etc., but a large and well equipped laboratory is devoted
to the manufacture of pharmaceutical preparations, fluid extracts, elixirs,
syrups, tinctures, chemicals, etc. There is, besides, a surgical instrument
•department, stocked from the best sources of supply in England, France,
Germany and the United States, and, also, a very complete chemical
apparatus department, for the supply of these goods to colleges, schools,
mining companies and assayers, — the greater attention paid to chemistry in
the public schools and the development of the mining industries of the
country causing a steady and increasing demand for chemical appliances
of all kinds. In addition to the extensive premises on St. Paul street, com
prising three buildings, with a fiontage of eighty feet, and extending back to
Capital street, Lyman Sons & Co. occupy Nos. 9 and 11 DeBresoles street,
which they use as a drug and spice grinding mill. The firm were formerly
large manufacturers of linseed oil, oil cake, paints, etc., and obtained
medals for these products at nearly all the great exhibitions, from that of
Paris in 1855, to that of 1878, in the same city; but this branch ofthe
business was discontinued in 1887. The youngest, but not the least pro
mising, department in the house is that for the manufacture of fine
perfumes, after the French process, by steam machinery. Not only has
considerable success in this line been achieved in the home market, but the
firm's success with its exhibit in London, at the Colonial and Indian Exhibi
tion, has led to the estabhshment of an export agency there.
A.D. 1801.
ist Jan.,— Union of Great Britain and Ireland.
6th Jan., — Sir R. S. Milnes, having complained of the emancipation of the
R. C. clergy from State control, the Duke of Portland, Secretary of State for

invested with holy orders, or be charged with the cure of souls, without the
sanction of the Governor." The Duke desires the laws amended to give
Government greater control of the militia.
5th Feb., — To cement the Union, Pitt has introduced an Act to relieve
Roman Catholics of disabilities. As the king opposes the measure, Pitt
resigns the office of Prime Minister, which he has held for seventeen years,
and is succeeded by Addington.

greater than in 1800.

Canada, which has the honor of having the finest water-way and the
longest railroad, is also distinguished as the home of, doubtless, the chief
individual miller in the world.
The mining business, now carried on by William W. Ogilvie, Esq., at
many points, hundreds of miles apart, was begun, in 1801, by Mr. Ogilvie's
grandfather, who, in that year, erected a flour mill at Jacques Cartier, near
Quebec. Subsequently, displaying the foresight and energy which have
distinguished his descendants, he perceived that Montreal, which was then
inferior to Quebec, would become its superior, and, as the Lachine Rapids
offered unhmited water-power, he there, shortly afterwards, erected a mill,
of which the foundation is still to be seen.
In 1852, A. W. Ogilvie (now the Honorable) with his brothers, the late
John Ogilvie and W. W. Ogilvie, the present proprietor, erected the
Glenora Mills, on the Lachine Canal, and, at subsequent dates, the Royal

Mill at Montreal, and the Mills at Goderich, Seaforth and Winnipeg.
To these Mr. W. W. Ogilvie, last year, added, by purchase from his only
serious competitor, in Montreal, the City flouring mills of Messrs. Gould
& Sons, for which he paid a quarter of a million dollars.
In 1876, the wheat-growing capacity of Manitoba was still problematical,
and when the problem could only be worked out by enterprise and
capital, Mr. W. W. Ogilvie gained the confidence and gratitude, of the early
settlers of that Province, by going, purse in hand, to buy all the wheat they
had to sell.
In that year, he could only find a few hundred bushels ; but, in 1891, he
purchased, in that Province, for his own mills, over four million bushels of
wheat, which was temporarily stored in his thirty-nine elevators, in the
West. Mr. Ogilvie aims, always, to have the best possible machinery, and was
among the first to adopt the new mode of grinding, which, though partially
invented in 1866, only came into use, in Hungary, in 1868, the same year it

was utilized by Mr. Ogilvie, who went, to Hungary, to ascertain whether
it could be worked, and, finally, improved upon it.
The entire capacity of Mr. Ogilvie's mills being 7,500 barrels per day, it
is easy to see that he can put out over a miUion dollars' worth of flour in a
single month ; but a large income impUes proportionate expenditure ; and
he disbursed, last year, in wages alone, over a quarter million dollars
and for the Gould's mill another quarter of a million.
He does more than merely pay his assistants ; he takes an interest in,
and makes them comfortable. Recognizing their right, equally with his
¦own, to the- Heaven-sent blessings of light and air, he, recently, erected
spacious, lofty and well lighted offices, panelled and furnished with oak.
The clerks who have helped to make the fortunes of Mr. Ogilvie and his
family can, when opportunity favors, enjoy the well furnished reading-room
or the adjoining recreation-room. To counteract the influence of restaurants,
Mr. Ogilvie has thoughtfully added the convenience of a kitchen and dining-
xoom.

A.D. 1801.— Continued.
Like several of Montreal's men of business, Mr. Ogilvie makes leisure to
do a great deal of public and philanthropic work. He has been president
of the Corn Exchange, is always a leader in carrying Conservative candi
dates to the top of the Poll and, to show that his heart comports with his
success, it may be mentioned that he, recently gave $i,ooo to aid sufferers
by the fire in Newfoundland.
In order that the Board of Trade may open their new building under the
most favorable auspices they, in 1893, unaminously elect Mr. Ogilive to be
their President. A.D- 1802.
2nd Aug., — Napoleon becomes Consul.
The King assents to the endowment of a College, at Montreal, and of
another at Quebec.
The Lower Canadian Legislature declares one Bouc disqualified to sit in
Parliament for having been convicted of swindling and undergone infamous
punishment. P6re Cazeau, survivor of the Jesuits, in Canada, dies ; whereupon, the
Governor claims their estates for the Crown. A majority ofthe House prefer
devoting them to educational purposes, and require a copy ofthe Titles. The
Governor complies, though he reprehends the course taken as disrespectful
to the King.
Canada exports 1,010,033 bushels of wheat, 28,301 brls. of flour, and 22,.
051 cwt. of biscuits, exceeding the exports of any previous year.
Highest price of wheat, in England, per quarter, 79s.
A.D. 1803.
A projected invasion of England, by 150,000 Frenchmen, for whose trans
portation ships are ready, is disconcerted by the raising of 300,000 Enghsh
volunteers. Highest price of wheat, per quarter, in England, 64s.
A.D. 1804.
loth May, — Pitt succeeds Addington, as Prime Minister, with Canning as
Treasurer of the Navy.
1 8th May, — Bonaparte becomes Emperor.
— Dec, — Spain, influenced by France, declares war against England.
There are 142 slaves in the District of Montreal and more_than twice as-
many in the Province.

A.D. 1805.
JOSEPH FORTIER, 254 St. James Street, Montreal.
The business of importing and manufacturing mercantile stationery and
of ruling, printing, and lithographing as well as of manufacturing account-
books and relief stamping, now carried on by Mr. Joseph Fortier alone, is
the legal continuance of the famous wholesale and retail stationery house,
estabhshed, in 1805, by Robert Weir & Company of Glasgow.
The firm was successively Robert Weir & Co.; Weir & Dunn ; Robert
Weir &Co.; James Sutherland; Akerman, Sutherland, Fortier & Co., in
1879 ; and, in 1881, Joseph Fortier, who has since remained sole proprietor.

65
In speaking of this celebrated house. La Presse, ofthe 6th of June, 1885,
said it was one ofthe most important stationery establishments in Canada,
and probably the oldest; that it was intended, in 1805, merely as a branch
ofthe parent house in Scotland ; but the liberal support, which the excellence
of its goods commanded, soon justified its separate existence.
As clerk and proprietor, Mr. Fortier has now had ^thirty years'
experience of his customers' requirements, having entered the late James
Sutherland's employ in 1863.
Owing to their excellence, Mr. Fortier's goods and manufactures are in
favor with the leading Railway Companies, Banks, Insurance and Commercial
offices, in the city of Montreal and throughout the country.
A D 1805.1
5th Jan., — First issue of the Quebec Mercury; Thomas Gary, publisher.
As to the manner of conducting it, he finds that, for once, " even lawyers and
doctors administer advice gratis."
i6th Feb., — Specimen of advertisements in the Quebec Mercury : —
" Walking, not long since, near the machinery of a mill, I was caught and
carried between two cog-wheels, and every bone in my body broken to pieces
A phial of Ramrod's Tincture of Gridiron being thrown into the mill-pond,
I found myself restored, and as whole and sound as a roach."
1 8th Feb., — Alex. Forbes, Esq., Lieutenant Governor ofthe District of
Gaspe. 2ist Oct., — Nelson wins the battle of Trafalgar ; and almost destroys the
French and Spanish fleets with which Napoleon intended to invade Eng
land. Nelson has given his country an eye at Calvi ; an arm at Santa-Cruz ;
and at Trafalgar, his life and the saying, " England expects every man to
do his duty. "
Vermont passes an Act to estabhsh the line between that State and
Canada. Highest price of wheat, per quarter, in England, lois. 5d.
A.D. 1806.
— Sept.,— This year is fatal to Fox as well as to Pitt and Nelson.
_Nov.,— Z^ Canadien, the first French newspaper, in Quebec, appears.

i6th Jan.,— Sir John Moore, with 14,500, after retreating, through Spain,

3rd Nov., — John Molson's steam-boat "Accommodation" starts for Quebec.
It is 85 feet over all, has a 6 horse-power engine, makes the distance in 36
hours, but stops at night and reaches Quebec on the 6th. The "Accommoda
tion " is the second steam-boat in America and, probably, in the world. The

29th Dec, — Birth of William E. Gladstone.
The Governor, after the second expulsion of Ezekiel Hart, an Enghsh
Jew, from the Assembly, dissolves Parliament, saying : " You have wasted
in fruitless debates, excited by private aud personal auimisity, that time
and those talents to which, within these walls, the public have an exclusive
title. You have, thereby, been forced to neglect the consideration of matters
of moment and necessity, which were before you ; while you have, at the
same time, virtually prevented the introduction of such others as may have
been in contemplation. A general good uuderstandiiig is scarcely to be
looked for without a new Assembly." A.D. 1810.

The newspaper Le Canadien resentfully says : — " The King's representa
tive has power, by law, to dissolve the House when he thinks fit to do so ;
but he has no right, whatever, to make abusive remarks upon the action of
the Legislature, a body independent of his authority. The respect due to
this branch is as sacred and as inviolable as that due to his Excellency.''

Montreal follows suit.

The steamboat " Comet " begins to ply the Clyde.
President Madison, in his message to Congress, says : " We have seen the
British Cabinet not only persist, in refusing satisfaction demanded for the
wrongs we have already suffered, but it is extending to our own waters that
blockade, which is become a virtual war against us, through a stoppage of
our legitimate commerce."

The business, of which this is the lawful sequence, originated in 1811

74
before the last war with the United States, and, at the outset, bore the
name of Robertson & Co. Beginning with a good introduction, both to the
merchants of London and to the retail dealers of Canada, a happy com
bination of Scotch caution and French energy made the business an imme
diate and permanent success, more particularly in its competition for
French Canadian custom. The first change in the style of the firm was to
Robertson, Masson & Co.
The house afterwards assumed the names, successively, of Robertson,
Masson, Larocque & Co.; Robertson, Masson, Strang & Co.; in 1832,
Robertson, Masson, Bruyere & Co. ; and, in 1845, Masson, Bruy^re, Thomas
& Co. In 1849, the style became Thomas, Thibeaudeau & Co.; in 1867,
Thibeaudeau, Genereux & Co. ; and, finally, in 1879, Thibeaudeau Bros.
&Co.
The parent house, at Quebec, is under the immediate direction of the
Honorable Isidore Thibeaudeau, whose son and partner, Alfred Thibeau
deau, has charge of the Branch at Monti eal. The house has a further
Branch in London, England. Few Canadian firms have yielded so many
or such ample fortunes to retiring members or an equal number of men
competent for the direction of banks and other corporate bodies and to
assist in the administration of Government. The Hon. Isidoie Thibeau
deau, of Quebec, is a Director, and has been President, of the Banque
Nationale, was a member of the Government formed by the late Hon.
John Sanfield Macdonald, and has represented both Quebec East and Quebec
Centre in Parliament. Alfred Thibeaudeau, though still young, is already,
an active member of the Board of Trade. The Hon. Joseph Rosaire Thi
beaudeau, who lately retired from the firm of Thibeaudeau Bros., upon
accepting the shrievalty of Montreal, is still a Senator and holds many high
offices in financial and industrial companies.

THE BANK OF MONTREAL.
[Established 1817 ; incorporated 1821 ; Act sanctioned 1822.]
The inhabitants of Montreal are proud of their Mountain, River, Bridge,
Railway-Stations, Churches and great Monetary Institutions — headed by
the Bank of Montreal, which stands fourth in the World's List. It was
first opened with ^^87,500 capital, on Monday, 3rd of November, 181 7, as
the adventure of a number of merchants, and was incorporated by Act of
Parliament, passed on the 14th of December, 1820, in the first year of the
reign of King George IV. The petition for His Majesty's sanction of the
incorporation, setting forth the advantage that would result to commerce, to
agriculture and to the Province generally, though presented on the 7 th of
March, 1821, appears not to have been sanctioned until the i8th of May,
1822, as declared by the Governor on the 22nd of July, 1822.
The Petitioners represented that the stock of their Association, amount
ing, under their articles of agreement, to ^^250,000 currency, divided into
5,000 shares of ;^5o each, had been fully subscribed, and in part paid.

Robert Gillespie, M. J. Hays, Benjamin Holmes, Wm. Yule, Jas. Buchanan,
Robert Griffin, Noah Freer, George Symes, James Ross and Andrew Moir.
In 1820, the Association's place of business was destroyed by fire; and,

84
¦on the site subsequently occupied by, successively, La Banque du Peuple
and the Post Office, they built another costing £ii,ooo.
The present Bank building, fronting on St. James Street, and over-looking
Place d'Armes Square, is one of the most extensive, sohd, ornate and com
modious in America.
In 1827, Hon. John Molson, the (then) President, was also a Justice of the
Peace, entitled to sic in Quarter Sessions, Captain in the Cavalry, Right
Worshipful Provincial Grand Master of the Provincial Grand Lodge for
the District of Montreal and Borough of WiUiam Henry, vice-president of
the General Hospital, on its Committee of Management, and one of its •

Member of a committee for the promotion of Education and Industry in
Canada, President ofthe British and Canadian School Society, of which the
Governor, the Right Hon. Earl of Dalhousie, was Patron, and President of
the Bible Society.
The Hon. James Leslie, Director, was a Justice of the Peace, Captain in
the Militia, Vice-President of the British and Canadian School Society, a
Director of the Agricultural Society and Vice-President of the Montreal
Auxiliary Bible Society.
Peter McGill, Director, was a Justice of the Peace, Captain and Adjutant
in the MiUtia, Junior Grand Deacon in the Provincial Grand Lodge for the
District of Montreal, and Senior Warden in Lodge No. 8, Vice-President of
the British and Canadian School Society and Vice-President of the Auxiliary
Bible Society of Montreal.

Ceremonies in Lodge No. 8, a Director of the Montreal Library and Trea
surer of the Advocates' Library; while Henry Griffin was a Justice of the
Peace, Captain and Adjutant of Militia, Secretary of the Agricultural
Society and a Director of the Montreal Savings Bank.
As the early Directors were generally patriotic, brave, religious and phil
anthropic, as well as sagacious and thrifty men of business, the Presidency
and other offices, in later years, have naturally fallen to those who, like Sir
Donald A. Smith, conjoin capacity to accumulate wealth and enlightened
philanthrophy, to guide its distribution.
Among the numerous positions of trust and of honor, held by members
of the present Directorate, a few may be mentioned :
Sir Donald A. Smith, President of the Bank of Montreal, has for many
years been Governor of the Hudson Bay Company, is Chancellor of McGill
College, Director of the Canadian Pacific Railway, Member of Parliament
for Montreal West, and holds as many more Presidencies and Directorships
as he can be induced to accept.

the Canada Sugar Refining Company and President of the leading Coal
Mining Company of Canada.
Sir John Abbott, K.C.M.G., a Director of the Bank, was recently Prime
Minister of Canada, in succession to the late Rt. Hon. Sir John A. Mac
donald, is a Senator, has been a Director of, and Attorney for, the Canadian
Pacific Railway and a Dir.ector of tne Merchants Bank, and for years
enjoyed the largest professional income of any advocate in the Province.
Hugh McLennan, A. T. Paterson and W. H. Meredith (son of Chief

86

branches of the Commercial activity of Montreal.
R. B. Angus, a Director of the Canadian Pacific Railway, was for some

Merchants' Exchange and is one of the Governors of McGill College, etc.,
etc. Of W. C. McDonald, Esq., another Director, the Earl of Derby has made
known that his gifts to McGill College amount to nearly $1,000,000.
The share-holders of the Bank must feel great confidence in the manage
ment of their interests, supervised, as they are, by men of such distinguished
ability and high character.
Among the principal Directors of the past have been the late James B.
Greenshields, by whose liberal benefactions McGill College has much
benefited, John G. McKenzie, Sir John Rose, subsequently of Morton, Rose
& Company, Bankers, of London, England, and Dr. Geo. Campbell.
In 1851, the Board of Directors consisted of the Hon. Peter McGill,
President; T. B. Anderson, Vice-President; James Logan, John Molson,
John Redpath, WilHam Molson, Harrison Stephens, John Torrance, Hugh
(afterwards Sir Hugh) Allan, John Brook, John Boston (sheriff), Thos. Ryan
and Henry Thomas.
Among the officers, clerks, etc., wers Alexander Simpson, Cashier ; James
Bolton, Chief Clerk; F. Franklin, Transfer Clerk; and R. A. Lindsay,
Exchange Clerk.
At that time Frederick GriflRn still remained Solicitor of the Bank and John
C. Griffin had become its Notary.
The Bank had, in 1851, but two discount days, viz.: Tuesdays and
Fridays. It had, even then, eighteen agencies in Canada, eleven of which are still
in the hst, while seven have been discontinued.
Belleville, Brantford, Brockville, Hamilton, Kingston, London, Peterboro,
Picton, Quebec and Toronto are continued, and although Bowmanville,
Cobourg, Port Hope, Port Stanley, St. Catharines, St. Thomas and Woodstock
have been dropped, the Bank has, in 1893, about forty places of business.
The Bank's total assets amount, in 1893, to nearly fifty millions of dollars.
The General Manager, E. S. Clouston, Esq., has had twenty-nine years'
experience in this largest and oldest Bank in the Country.
He was educated in Montreal, and, having risen through many grades of
clerkship and office-holding to the highest administrative position, is famihar
with the working of every department. He has had the advantage of an

87
acquaintance with the methods of those masters of finance, the late E. H.
King, R.B.Angus, Esq., and the late C. F. Smith ers.
After being for some years Assistant General Manager, upon the retirement
of Wentworth J. Buchanan, Esq., Mr. Clouston became General Manager.
Having recently laid all the leading Banks of Canada under obliga
tion, by assisting to shape the course of legislation regarding Banks and
Banking, he has, in the eyes of shareholders, achieved a still greater success,
by capturing from all competitors, for the Bank of Montreal, the Financial
Agency of the Dominion, in England.
Among the Chief Officers ofthe Bank are E. S. Clouston, General Manager ;
H. V. Meredith, Manager ; A. Macnider, Chief Inspector and Superintendent
of Branches ; and A. Buchanan, Assistant Superintendent of Branches.
The paid capital, which was $350,000, in 1817, became $650,000 in 1819 ;
$850,000 in 1829; $2,000,000 in 1841 ; $3,000,000 in 1845 ; $4,000,000 in
1855 '' $6,000,000 in i860 and, in 1873, $12,000,000. Its rest of $4,168, in
1819, reached $197,828, in 1837, $740,000 in i860, $3,000,000 in 1870,
$5,000,000 in 1880, and is now $6,000,000. Dividends have ranged, in
general, from 8 to 16 per cent, or equal bonus, though neither bonus nor
dividend was paid in 1827, or 1828. A.D. 1818.

(Established in 1820).
GEORGE BRUSH, Proprietor,
14/(7 34 King Street'; 30 to 40 Queen Street,
MONTREAL.
In 1820, John D. Ward, from Vermont, built the Eagle Foundry, on
Queen street, and, with his brothers, Lebbeus and Samuel, provided engines
for many steam-boats on Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence.
In 1838, when J. D. Ward had moved to Jersey City, and George Brush,
sr., had improved the firm's reputation, by importing his twenty years' ex
perience in building and running steam-boats, the foundry was honored with
instructions from the Admiralty, for an engine for the " Sydenham," built at
Quebec, and she proved the swiftest steam-boat in the Navy.
In 1847, S. Ward moved to Hartford. The other brother having pre
viously removed to New York, Mr. Brush was thus left sole proprietor, until
90
his son and namesake, a barrister, who has been for many years Director of
the Banque du Peuple, accepted a partnership, which, at his father's death,
imposed upon him the whole responsibihty ofthe business.
The Eagle Foundry is the oldest of its kind in Canada; and, having
suffered few changes in nearly three-quarters of a century's management,
begun by men experienced in making and running almost the first steam
boats, it has advantages over all competitors.
The Works produce Marine, Stationary and Portable Steam-Engines and
Boilers ; Mill and Mining Machinery ; Hydraulic, Steam and Hand Eleva
tors, Stone-Breakers, Road-Rollers, and a variety of gears and general
machinery from a most extensive stock of Patterns.

Sherman & Co., who were followed by Mr. Hyatt, Hyatt & Company,
James Mavor, uncle of the present proprietor, and Robert Reid, who, for a
long time, carried it on under the style of James Mavor & Co.

the skill and taste of the sculptor, remarkable ability as a man of business.

desire representation by population, with a low property qualification. They
would have councillors excluded from addressing the Assembly, and wish
their mother-tongue to be the language of the debates.

Established 1824.
THE ALLIANCE ASSURANCE COMPANY.
GEORGE H. McHENRY, Manager,
159 St. James Street,
MONTREAL.
The Alliance is one of the best known and strongest among the British
insurance institutions. Besides its subscribed capital of $25,000,000, with
unUmited liability, the subscribers representing vast resources, the com
pany has funds amounting to over $14,000,000, and, adding paid-up capital
— $2,750,000 — and other holdings, its assets reach a total of nearly
$17,500,000. Its income for 1890 was $3,509,600, of which $1,379,760
was from the life branch and $2,124,800 from the fire branch. It will be
seen that the company does a very considerable life business, though its
Canadian busi es will be confined to fire insurance.
The Alliance was organized in 1824, and has always been under vigorous
and conservative management, and has never lost the impetus given it, at its
birth, by the backing of a large body of shareholders, counting among their
number some of the leading monied men of the United Kingdom, among
whom were the Barings and Rothschilds. Among the presidents of the
youthful days of the company were successively, John Irving, M. P., a

96

prominent London merchant; Francis Baring, of Baring Bros.; Samuel
Gurney, Nathan M. Rothschild and Moses Montifiore, the latter (afterwards
Sir Moses), if we mistake not, being president of the company at the time
of his death. See page 102.

THE OLDEST
BOOT AND SHOE MANUFACTORY
IN MONTREAL.

The firm of J. & T. BELL is engaged in the manufacture of Fine Boots
and Shoes ; and is one of the oldest manufacturing houses in Canada.
The business originated with Alexander Bell, in 1824, and was continued
by his sons, Joshua and Thomas, from the year 1845.
Their first shop was in St. Paul street, whence they moved to Notre Dame
street. In 1857, Samuel Bell joined the partnership, which, in the course of that
year, removed into the premises the firm still occupies.
In 1863, Joshua Bell died ; Thomas survived him until 1880. In 1881,
the remaining brother, Samuel Bell, retired ; and the business is now carried
on by John I. Hagar, nephew of the late partners, under the old name of
J. & T. Bell.
Within the long period of the firm's continuance, there have been many
changes of style [and mode of manufacture, but, through the whole, this
house has kept pace with the requirements of fashion and good taste, and
remains, as of old, so far in advance of all competitors that the name of
J. & T. Bell is a recognized standard of excellence in style, workmanship
and material throughout the Dominion.

NOTARY PUBLIC,
Commissioner of the Superior Court and Justice of the Peace.
15 St. Lambert St., MONTREAL.
Joseph Augustin LaBadie, admitted to the notarial profession on the 26th
of June, 1826, was long the leading, and senior, notary in Montreal, and was
finally head of a firm representing three generations, of which firm all but
the deceased founder still practise under the old roof.
2oth Nov. — Mr. Papineau is elected speaker, over Mr. Vallieres de Saint
Real. 2ist Nov. — The Governor enjoins the election of a different Speaker, to
be presented for approbation, on Friday.
The usual injunction is : — " It is therefore His Excellency's pleasure,
that you. Gentlemen of the House of Assembly, do forthwith repair to the
place where the sittings of the House of Assembly are usually held, and
there proceed to the choice of aft person to be your Speaker, and that you
present the person who shall be so chosen to His Excellency, in this House,
on — next, at — o'clock, for his approbation ;" thus reserving the privilege
of disallowance. The speakei: generally says : " May it please your Ex
cellency. The honor which the House of Assembly have conferred on me, in
choosing me their Speaker, is as great as the important duties of the office
are above my abilities. My zeal, however ardent, not sufficiently com
pensating for my incapacity, I most respectfully implore the excuse and

101
commands of your Excellency," — a formula used by both Papineaus, and
answered as follows : —
" I am commanded by His Excellency to observe to you that, as the
office to which you have been chosen calls for great experience and discre
tion, so he can not but augur well of the future proceedings of the House of
Assembly from this early instance of their judgment in choosing a person of
your knowledge and capacity for their Speaker. He does, therefore, allow
and confirm you to be their Speaker."
Usage thus tacitly admits that the Governor may declare distrust of the
Speaker elect.
On M. Cuvillier's motion, the Assembly declare that,: " The choice of a
President of Assembly ought to be free."
The Governor prorogues Parliament, and so, possibly, prevents a rebel
lion. The Rideau Canal is begun.
McGill College is founded.
King's College, Toronto, is founded.
The Natural History Society of Montreal is organized [ Vide 1832].
Sir Harcourt Lee suggests founding Orange Lodges in Canada.

The late Thomas Mussen, Esq., wholesale and retail merchant, in dry
goods, at Nos. 1651 to 1655 Notre Dame street, Montreal, was born at Bur
ton Pidsey, ten miles north of Hull, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, Eng
land, on Tuesday, 6th of March, 1804. The family sailed from Hull, for
Quebec in the spring of 1818, and settled at Lacadie, in Lower Canada,
where the father kept a general store, but, after two years' experience, dis
posed of it, and bought a farm in Odelltown. The subject of this sketch
having no taste for farming, engaged, for a year, with the late William
McGinnis, storekeeper, at Lacadie, and, later, with James Douglas & Co.,
leading wholesale merchants in Montreal, with whom he remained until, in
the beginning of 1824, he accepted a better position in the house of Wm.
Smith & Co., wholesale dealers in dry goods and groceries.
In 1825, being the chief creditors of an insolvent at Cornwall, Messrs.
Smith & Co. intrusted disposal of the insolvent's stock to Mr. Mussen,
whose success earned him a bonus and a reputation that facihtated starting
in business, respecting which he reasoned that, having succeeded for others,
he might do well for himself. As his employers could not dissuade him,
they supplied him with goods, for which he made prompt payment. His
first store was opened in the spring of 1827, in Mrs. Ousteroute's building.

on the south side of St. Paul street, facing Vaudreuil lane, on what is, in
1892, part of the Amable Prevost succession (Nos. 266 and 268 St. Paul
street). His constantly increasing business was interrupted on the ist of April,
1830, by a fire, which started in the next building, and destroyed his store.
Seeing that this was inevitable, Mr. Mussen, and his neighbors, saved most
of his goods ; and the small loss by this, his only fire, was promptly paid
by Messrs. McKenzie & Bethune, the Alliance Assurance Company's
agents. His next place of business adjoined the hardware store of Thomas
Storrow Brown, notable in history, on the site of J. G. Mackenzie & Co.'s
present store (Nos. 381 and 383 St. Paul street). Though prospered, he
removed, in 1837, 'o Archibald Ferguson's premises, on the N. W. corner
of Notre Dame and St. Gabriel streets (Nos. 1611 to 1615 Notre Dame
street), where he had already profitably disposed of a bankrupt stock,
purchased there in 1836, Many predicted that the change would alienate
his custom, for trade had centred on St. Paul and Commissioners' streets,
between Custom-House square and Bonsecours street, while Notre-Dame,
Little and Great St. James, Craig and intersecting streets were the residen
tial part of the city. But Mr. Mussen's example was soon followed by so
103
many that Notre Dame became the principal retail street. In a few years
his store was too small for his business and, having, in 1841, purchased
the site of the present store, Mr. Mussen removed the old buildings and
erected the largest retail store then in the city (Nos. 1651, 1653 and 1655
Notre Dame street and 2, 4 and 6 St. Lambert street). Being prominent in
St. George's Society, he celebrated that Saint's day, (23rd April) in 1843,
by opening the new store, and, excepting six months, in 1865, when the
widening of Notre Dame street necessitated removal, the business has there
continued ever since. The temporary removal was to Theodore Hart's
premises (Nos. 514 and 516), Craig street. For the new store, Mr.
Mussen imported from the English manufacturers, plate glass, 30 by 38
inches, which, being the first made of that size, attracted much attention.
He was also the first merchant in Montreal who used rolling iron-shutters.
Having built the mansion, "York Place," 718 Sherbrooke street, he, in the
fall of i860, removed there, from over his store, thus making more room for
his increasing trade. Many leading merchants in the city, and elsewhere,
were trained in Mr. Mussen's employ, and know what close attention to
business led to his remarkable success. During the Rebellion, in 1837,
he Served in Captain Douglas' company, in the battalion commanded by
Col. (the Hon.) John Molson and Major Henry Driscoll, barrister, but,
though loyally first in obeying orders, to avoid the distraction of its respon
sibilities, he repeatedly dechned a commission. In 1852 and 1853 he
represented the Centre Ward in the City Council but business forbade
his continuance in that exactintr position.
Being disposed to bear his share of public burthens, he, for twenty-five
years, held a commission as Justice of the Peace. A staunch adherent of the
Church of England, he was for many years a warden of Christ Church
Cathedral, and was, at the time of his death, the oldest member ofthe con
gregation. He was an active member ofthe committee which supervised
building the Cathedral on St. Catherine street, the construction of which
was necessitated by the burning of the old Cathedral on Notre Dame street,
next to which stood Mr. Mussen's store. While the Cathedral was burning,
part of the spire fell through the roof of his store, with, fortunately, but little
damage. Sixty -five years' store-keeping, on his own account, made Mr. Mussen the
oldest merchant in Canada. Possibly he directed a large commercial busi
ness longer than any other person in America. He was twice married,
successively to Ehza Sarah Frazer, daughter of the late Alexander Frazer,
Esq., a merchant of Dublin, Ireland, and Maria Eleanor Kay, daughter of
John Kay, Esq., a merchant of Montreal, whom he survives.
Of his eleven children, six are sons and five daughters. He always

104
adhered to the Conservative party, deeming that its principles tend to
cohesion ofthe Empire and, so, to the good of the country. Of one who
proved honest, persevering, courageous, loyal, patriotic, generous and bene
volent, what remains to be said, except that he was also successful ? He
died at his residence, "York Place," on the 5th of April, 1892. The City
papers of the following day speak of him with great respect.
One of them says : —
" He was noted for his charity ", which best entitles him to the respect of
mankind. A. D. 1827.

It is proposed to exclude Judges from the Legislature, to accord propor

In the Commons, Mr. Huskisson declares that the Lower Canadian
constitution, though drafted by great Statesmen, fails through ignorance of
the country's wants. He reprehends introducing British Law and Pro
cedure. He attributes the Assembly's withholding supplies, to the Crown's
pretended control of the revenues (£100,000) and assumed right of determ
ining which officers shall be salaried.
Mr. Labouchere, a Commoner of French descent, regards "The Act of
1791 as the Magna Charta of Canadian freedom." He says : "True, the
intent of Pitt was to combine a nominative Council with a representative
chamber ; but not to compose the former entirely of the British race, which
forms but a small proportion of the population."
Sir James Macintosh says : —
" The Assembly has ' an indisputable right to regulate the employment of
all monies accorded by its votes.
" * * * In 1827, the assembly passed 31 bills ; the Upper House refused
to pass any one of them ! Who is answerable for this ? The Governor, is
my reply ; for the council is but an instrument in his hands ; a Legislative
Council, constituted like that of Canada, forms no constitutional barrier
between executive and representative power, * * *
" I understand that a Council minority is virtually non-existent ; for,
wearied with bootless struggles against the influence of the majority of
placemen at the Board, the independent members have ceased to take part
in the deliberations of their paid colleagues.
"The Colonial minister has appealed to the sympathies of this House in
favor of the Colonists of British descent.

" Now, can anyone show a law, passed by the Canadian Assembly, to the
detriment of our compatriots ? * * * Are British Colonists to be separated
from the general population ? Are they to be privileged, to the disadvantage
of the common population ? " Is the numerically inferior race to be exclu
sively protected ? Are its religious sympathies to be fostered, to the point
of Protestant domination ?

J. G. MACKENZIE & CO.,
WHOLESALE DRY GOODS IMPORTERS,
381 & 383 St. Paul St.,
MONTREAL.
A sketch of the progress of Canadian commerce, or chronicle of the City
of Montreal, would be incomplete without mention of this old established
108
firm, whose name has been identified with everything that has tended to
increase the influence of the Dominion and improve the trade of the City,
since the beginning of the century, and whose business ramifications
extend to every corner of the provinces.
This concern, which, in the very early days of Montreal, was one ofthe
many business adventures of the late Horatio Gates, a merchant of great
renown, and one of the original corporators ofthe Bank of Montreal, was
established, under its present style, by his son-in-law, the late John Gordon
Mackenzie, in 1829, and has always kept in the foremost rank among the
leading business houses ofthe Dominion.
The premises, centrally located, occupy a substantial warehouse, built of
Montreal limestone, and comprise five flats, 100 x 50 feet, in which the business
furnishes employment to 50 persons, and it has representatives in all parts of
the Dominion. The estabhshment of a branch house in London, Eng.,
besides affording a depot for the firm's foreign buyers, also enables them
to secure, at all times, the latest and best that the European market can
produce, and to place their goods on the market at rates advantageous to
the trade. Without a doubt, no finer class of goods is to be found in Mon
treal than is displayed in their spacious and handsome sale and sample
rooms ; all of which is indicative of the enterprise that has characterized
this old house from the outset.
The founder of this business, the late John Gordon Mackenzie, having
passed away at a ripe old age, on the 12th of May, 1881, the present members
of the firm are his son, Mr. Hector Mackenzie, and Mr. J. P. Cleghorn,
gentlemen whose social and business talents, have rendered them well
qualified not only to carry out the ideas of their worthy predecessors, but
to enlarge on them, to an extent beyond their first conception, and, by fair
dealing, to preserve unsullied a reputation that is synonymous with every
thing that goes to make up straightforward business integrity.
The high personal esteem in which they are held in the community has
called them to positions on the direction of many pubhc companies. Mr.
Mackenzie, the senior member of the firm, is a director of the Merchants'
Bank, the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Company, and the Montreal
Telegraph Company. He is also president of the Philharmonic Society,
and a warm supporter of whatever tends to the social, as well as commercial,
welfare of the City. Mr. Cleghorn, the managing partner, is a director of
the Sun Life Insurance Co., the Intercolonial Coal Co., and the Merchants'
Manufacturing Co., and has filled the highest position in the gift of the
merchants of Montreal, having been twice elected president of the Board
of Trade, during which period many useful projects were advanced, not the

109
least of which were the selecting of the site and laying the plans of its
new building recently erected. Mr. Cleghorn is also actively interested
in the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, the Montreal General
Hospital and other benevolent and philanthropic objects.
— MANUFACTURER OF —
Ranges, Heating Apparatus, Refrigerators, Filters,
COLINflRY UTENSILS AND DINING ROOM
AND
No. 224 ST. JAMES STREET.

This old business was established by George Fabes Prowse, who was
born in Davenport, England, on Thursday, the 5th of December, 1805.
At the age of 21, he entered the hardware business in Davenport ; but,
after learning a useful trade, sailed for Halifax, Nova Scotia (nearly a
four months' voyage in those days). He stayed in Halifax long enough to
get married, and came, in 1829, to Montreal, via Quebec, — from the latter
place by steamer, which was drawn up St. Maiy's Rapids by oxen.
With but $1,50, in his pocket, he started business on St. Lawrence Main,
at the corner of Vitr^, Street. In a few years he removed thence to a house,
which is still standing, near the Quebec Gate barracks, on St. Mary Street.
In 1837, the Rebellion having necessitated re-enforcements, the furnishing
of requisite supplies to the Government afforded Mr. Prowse a start of
which he never lost the advantage.
While Dalhousie Square, three-quarters of a mile east, was still con
sidered the centre of trade, Mr. Prowse had the foresight to buy the site on
St. James Street, upon which he and his son have, successively, carried on
business. After attaining exceptional success, due to a combination of qualities and
circumstances — among others, to foresight and energy, and to his conviction
that only the best wares are sure of a market, — he retired, in i860, in favor
of George R, Prowse, his oldest son, who has proved an enterprising and
public-spirited citizen, as well as a successful man of business. The leisure

gained by retirement was utilized by the late Mr. Prowsej in seeing Europe
and many parts of America, in the course of which he found, in Colorado,
investments which greatly increased his already ample means.
But kind as all lands proved to him, he was attracted to his adopted
country, where he died on Wednesday, the 22nd of August, 1883.

This business, which has enjoyed the patronage of royalty, nobility and
the mihtary, as weH as of the Canadian people generally, was established, in
1833, by Dr. Michael McCuUoch, who was succeeded by Alexander
Urquhart. Mr. Urquhart continued the business, with and without asso
ciates, until about 1850, when he sold its good will to the late Dr. William
McDonald, who, in turn, rehnquished it to Messrs. Carter, Kerry & Co.,
for whom it was carried on by John Birks, brother of R. Birks, of McGill
street. The next proprietor was Johnson Beers, brother of Dr. George
Beers, dentist. When Mr. Beers died, about the year 1856, Kenneth Camp
bell, the present proprietor succeeded, and has greatly extended the business.
Among his most valuable specifics is Campbell's Ehxir of Life, a duplex
tonic, which restores the system in cases of general debility, preserves vital
energy, prolongs life, and is a beneficial alterative for the young of either sex,
safe-guarding them, as it does, at critical periods of growth and development :
as a nerve tonic, it counteracts the effect of over-taxing the brain, at school
or college and in business.

This important Colonization Company, which was projected by John
Gait, the famous novelist, father of Sir Alexander Gait, was organized in
1834, to settle the Eastern Townships as the Canadian Company had
helped to settle Upper Canada. Delegates from the Townships of the old
county of Sherbrooke met at Lennoxvihe, in 1832, and resolved to co
operate with the promoters.
Lord Aylmer, the Governor, having visited the Townships, wrote the
Secretary of State : —

me the most eligible, for settlement, of any I have yet visited. The climate

Edward Wheeler Mills, John Shuter, Lewis Stride and Wilham Pemberton.
One of the original auditors was James John Cummins, a surname well
known in the townships, where his nephew acted as an officer of the com
pany. The commissioners, in Canada, were Hon. Peter McGill and Hon. Geo.
Moffatt. The villages of Robinson and Gould and Shuter street, in .Mon
treal, were named after some of these officers.
The company purchased from the Government, 847,661 acres, and,
subsequently, the balance of 1,044,272 acres, for ^170,321 9s. sd. sterling
of which _;^6o,ooo might be used for improvements.

126
A. D. 1834.— Continued.
By applying part of this to making roads and bridges, the company
facilitated the marketing of produce and gave employment to immigrants.
At Port St. Francis, midway between Quebec and Montreal, and nearer
to Sherbrooke than either city, property was purchased, to secure a port of
entry where ships could be loaded or unloaded, to further which the com
pany made the " Port St. Francis Road."
To avail of Sherbrooke's water-power and central position, for administra
tive purposes, land was purchased at that place. For many immigrants
from Norfolk and Suffolk, England, small clearings, log-houses and food
were provided, principally in the townships of Bury and Lingwick.
Although the want of return from the soil, the ingratitude of immigrants
and protracted daily expenditure made the enterprise unsatisfactory, the
company continued to promote manufacturing, at Sherbrooke, by erecting
buildings and making advances. The Rebellion, in 1837 ^^'^ ^838, so
increased existing difficulties, that, in 1841, it became impossible to pay the
Government an instalment and interest ; and the company surrendered
part of their purchase.
In or about 1844, Mr. (now Sir) Alexander Tilloch Gait was appointed
Commissioner, and, by his remarkable abihty and energy, put new hfe into
the enterprise.
Seeing that many of the Company's debtors had cattle, but no money, he
sent agents through the country to take payment in kind.
The beef-cattle, so acquired, were driven to Quebec, to provision the gar
rison, and the store-cattle were sold to the farmers, in New England.
Debtors were often allowed more than could be realized for their stock, par
tial payment being preferred to losing the whole debt.
The country benefited wonderfully, from the construction of the St.
Lawrence & Atlantic Railway (now the Grand Trunk), of which Mr. Gait
was an active promoter. As Commissioner, he took stock in the Railway to
the amount of $100,000 ; and, to prevent collapse of the project, loaned the
company $100,000, additional.
Upon Mr. Gait's retirement from the commissionership, in 1855, ^^ ^^^
succeeded by Richard William Heneker (now D.C.L. andLL.D.), son of a
British officer, from whom he took his second name.
Mr. Heneker, who was educated in the University College Schoo 1, and
under private tuition, in London, studied architecture, under the celebrated
Sir Charles Barry, who designed the new Parliamentary Buildings, at West
minster, England.
Though his training was not wholly in the direction of the ultimate

127
employment of his abilities, Mr. Heneker's appointment has proved very
advantageous to the company and to the community in which he has so
long resided.
Without knowing the company's intentions, he was sent out because Mr.
Gait was about to devote his attention exclusively to the Railway, which is
now the Grand Trunk ; and arriving in season to learn his predecessor's
mode of administration, and perceiving its correctness, Mr. Heneker so
successfully continued the same policy that, by sales of land, he has reduced
the company's property to 141,864 acres.
Mr. Heneker has been, from the beginning, a director, and is now presi
dent of the Eastern Townships Bank. He was one of the promoters and a
director of the International Railway (now part of the Canadian Pacific
Railway); is Chancellor of Bishop's College; was a promoter of, and is a
shareholder in, numerous manufacturing enterprises, including the Baton
Manufacturing Company, which employs about seven hundred operatives,
paying them over $150,000, /«' annum, in wages.
Many years ago Mr. Heneker, as Commissioner ofthe British American
Land Company, caused pamphlets to be distributed and lectures to be
delivered throughout Great Britain and Ireland, favoring settlement in the
Townships, and, with the same object, personally visited England, Sweden
and Norway.
Regarding Sherbrooke as the most suitable place to keep Canadian
operatives from Lowell and other manufacturing towns in the States, he
invested his own means, in manufacturing, at the Capital ofthe Townships,
and induced others to do the same ; and has, consequently, seen Sher
brooke grow from a village to a town and from a town to a rapidly
increasing city of over 10,000 inhabitants.

This prominent wholesale business was established by the late Samuel
Mathewson, on the ist day of May, 1834, on St. Paul street.
From 1842, to 1854, the style of the firm was Samuel Mathewson & Son.
Afier the decease of Samuel Mathewson, H. Mathewson, a relative, was
admitted into partnership, and continued a member ofthe firm until 1865,
su!)sequent to which time, J. A. Mathewson was sole proprietor until he
associated with himself his sons, under the name and style of J. A. Mathew
son li Co.
The firm was prominent in introducing Japan teas to Canada. This they
did in the face of a strong prejudice, owing to the appearance ofthe teas,
which have now come into general use.
Mr. J. A. Mathewson, though 71 years of age, is still an active associate
in the firm of which he has so long been a member.

— Jan., — The King has appointed an arbitrator to settle questions
regarding customs dues between the Canadas.
— Jan., — The King will not make the Legislative Council elective, as it
would be inconsistent with monarchy, but he will favor measures for tlie
Council's independence.
— Jan., — The Secretary of State for the Colonies writes :— '-If coming
events should constrain the British Legislature to interpose its supreme
authority to appease the internal dissensions of the Colony, it would then,
indeed, become my duty to submit for the consideration of Parliament, som
modifications of the charters of the Canadas, not, however, for introducing
institutions inconsistent with monarchy, but to preserve and cement their
connection with the Mother Country, adhering ever to the spirit of the
British Constitution, and confining within their legitimate bounds the rights
and privileges of all His Majesty's subjects."
23rd Jan., — The Castle of St. Louis (Quebec) is burned.
6th March, — Incorporation of Toronto, heretofore York.
9th Dec, — Foundation of the " Canadian Alhance,'' at Toronto.
Before a committee of the British Commons, Hon. Edward Ellice suggests
remedies for troubles in Canada.
At Stanstead, Hon. Mr. Papineau addresses many inhabitants of the local
ity, and from Vermont and New Hampshire.
Speaking, in the House, upon resolutions, which he frames and Mr. Bedard
moves, Mr. Papineau says : — " It is certain that, before long, the whole of
America will be republicanized.
" If a change be necessary in our present constitution, it is to be under
taken in view of such a conjuncture as I have just mentioned. Would it
be a crime, were I to demand that it should? The members of the House
are ail answerable to their constituents for whatever decisions they may
come to, in this regard. And, even though the soldiery should slaughter
them ior it, they ought not to hesitate, lor one moment, to pronounce for
any change which they consider beneficial to their country."
Mr. Neilson replies : —
" The American revolutionists and the British Liberals contended for the
maintenance of franchises already acquired; we oppositionists are reaching
out our hands for freedom which we never possessed. The Resolutions
can not be justified, for they favor the refusal of supplies, without which there
would be no means of defraying the expense of governing the Province."
The 92 resolutions are passed by the Legislative Assembly of Lower Can
ada. The complaints relate, chiefly, to nominations of Councillors, partiality
in fining offices, of which 47 are alleged lo have been distributed among
525,000 Frenchmen, against 157 higher positions, among 75,000 of British
origin.

129

A majority of the Assembly pray for Lord Aylmer's impeachment for
maladministration, and invite Daniel O'Connell and others to assist them.
The Council and British Canadians counter-petition. The Assembly omit
voting supplies.
Adopting revolutionary tactics, Papineau advises wearing homespun cloth
and buying nothing British, in order to diminish misused revenues. Bank-
stocks being of British ownership, he advises a generaldemandof gold for
bank-notes. A. D. 1835.

BanqU© clu PeUpIe
Head Office,
. (ESTABLISHED IN 1835) • •
97 Sf. S^mes St., CQONTRSaC.
J. S. BOUSQUBT, Cashier.
This important Bank, which has $1,200,000, of paid up capital, and
a reserve of $550,000, started, in 1835, as a private Bank, under the style of
Viger, De Witt & Cie.
In 1843, change of organization was deemed requisite to enable the Bank
9
130
to further the businessof the immense undeveloped country whose waterways,
stretching half through, and three-fifths across, the land, promised future great
aess, on the way to which the registered tonnage of Canada's shipping already
(in 1892) exceeds that of France, Russia or Italy.
Accordingly, on the 9th of September, 1843, Messrs- Louis Viger, Jacob
DeWitt, John Donegani, Pierre Beaubien, Augustin TuUoch, Hosea Ballou
Smith, Romuald Trudeau and Pierre Jodoin, esquires, of Montreal, Alexis
Sauvageau, Esq.,ofLaprairie, Timothee Franchere, Esq., of St. Mathias, Joseph
Frederic AUard, Esq., of Chambly, and Alexis Montmarquet, Esq., of Carillon,
petition for incorporation as"La Banque du Psuple."
This petition received Her Majesty's sanction, on the 23rd of May, 1844.
as proclaimed by Governor Sir Charles Metcalfe, on the 27th of June, 1844,
Their charter gave the corporators and their successors exclusive gestion
and made them jointly and severally responsible for the Bank's debts, while
dormant share-holders' liability was limited to the amount of their shares,
payment for which was to entirel)' acquit them towards the Bank and its
creditors. As incorporation enabled the Bank to utilize the people's savings, for the
accommodation of the community, the Bank's name proved no misnomer.
It has been the People's Bank, — affording deserved accommodation, without
regard to race or creed.
The Charter differs in its provisions from those of successive general
Banking Acts, but its share-holders are indisposed to exchange permanence
and interested supervision for decennial fear of corporate extinction and the
miseries of double liabihty.
Query : — Will not the cause of this tenacity deserve Legislative conside
ration when another general Banking Act is discussed?
The first President was the Honorable Louis Viger, whose name is per
petuated by a Public Garden.
He was followed by, successively, Jacob De Witt, the Hon. F. A. Ques
nel, Hosea B. Smith, a wealthy merchant, John Pratt, andC. S. Cherrier,
Esq., Q.C., partner ofthe late Chief Justice Sir Aime Dorion.
In 1838, the United States and Upper Canadian banks, having suspended
specie payment, the Government allowed the chartered banks of Lower
Canada to discharge their obligations in money of their own issue, to prevent
the Country's being drained of gold and silver.
Accordingly, an Act, ist Victoria, Chapter 24, provided that the Chartered
Banks of the Province, and the Bank of British North America, might sus
pend specie payment, for the term of one year, without liabihty to any con
sequent suit, penalty or disability, and, paying Viger, DeWitt & Cie. the
high compliment of implying their equality with Chartered Banks, extended
to them, alone, of all private Banking Houses, like exemption and immunity.

131
Ofthe Directorate, in 1851, when the Banque du P euple and the City
Bank were domiciled on either side of the Bank of Montreal, where the
Post Office and the Imperial Assurance Building, respectively, now stand,
Henry Starnes (now the Hon.) is the only known survivor.
His co-Directors were the Hon. Louis Viger, Jacob DeWitt, J. AUard,
Hon. F. A.. Quesnel, Messrs. Hosea Ballou Smith, Pierre Jodoin, Alexis
Sauvageau, A. E. Montmarquet, S. B. Bonner and J. Bruneau.
The late Benjamin H. Lemoine, Esq., a gentleman of great ability and
ofhigh social standing, was then cashier.
Of the present Board, the President, Jacques Grenier, founder of the house
of Jacques Grenier & Co., sat nearly thirty years in the City Council, over
which he has presided as Mayor, after many years' chairmanship of the
committee of Finance, and he has been the city's delegate to England,
where he successfully negotiated a large civic loan.
George Brush, Esq., Vice-President, brings, to the councils of the Bank,
a knowledge of Law, which he practiced before becoming proprietor of the
oldest Canadian manufactory of steam-engines, through which he keeps
acquainted with the country's industries and their history. He has been
nearly half a lifetime a Director of the Bank.
Moise Branchaud, Esq., another Director, is a Queen's Counsel.
William Francis, Esq., is au fait of the hardware business ; Charles La-
caille, Esq., of wholesale groceries, and Alphonse Leclaire and Albert Pre
vost, also directors, are Wholesale Dry Goods Merchants.
The pubhc and the Press agree that J. S. Bousquet, the Cashier, discharges
his arduous duties with ability and courtesy.
As the Banque du Peuple is the first of French Canadian Banks, in im
portance, as well as in age, its cashier has superior means of observation,
which make it Mr. Bousquet's duty to his constituents, and kind to the pub
lic, to sound occasional notes of warning regarding the trade of the country.
Accordingly, at the annual meeting, in 1887, he gave timely advice of
dangers ahead, to the surprise of those who attributed, to two or three Eng
lish bankers, a monopoly of financial prescience ; and, although some were
disposed to criticise the forecasts of a new prophet, time proved his predic
tions true and brought him deserved credit.
Since then, his annual utterances upon the state of trade, pronounced
indifferently in either language, have shown that the warnings of this close
observer merit general heed.
He has the happy faculty of being able to refuse, without aggravating
denial by brusqueness and contempt, which reflect upon a Bank, and ultim
ately hurt the officer, if, in the whirligig of time, the borrower becomes
a capitahst.

132
Mr. Bousquet's reputation as a financier is the more remarkable, as, at
the retirement of Mr. Trottier, in 1886, youth was the objection to Mr.
Bousquet's promotion from assistant to be chief cashier. But, as lack of
age is a curable defect, it was deemed impolitic to supplant him by one who
might be too old to learn duties of which Mr. Bousquet already had twelve
years' experience in the Bank itself.
Results have justified the appointment, for, in seven years, since he took
office, viz., — from the first of March, 1886, to the 28th of Febiuary, 1893,
the Reser e Fund has risen from $200,000 to $550,000, and the Bank's cir
culation has increased from $537,059 to $752,446. In the same time the
Deposits, — which are a more satisfactory test of public confidence, — have risen
from $1,809,419.67 to $5,262,766.37, about 91 per cent, more than double the
amount on deposit when Mr. Bousquet took office.
In the same period, the Bank's assets have been augmented, without
change ofthe authorized capital, from $3,957,373.87 to $7,566,679, — an in
stance of progress, without parallel, in Canadian Banking.
The cashier is ably assisted by William Richer, assistant cashier, and by
Arthur Gagnon, inspector.

A.D. 1835.
2 ist Feb., — The Governor's speech, proroguing the Assembly's last
session, is expunged from the Journals.
2nd June, — The first steamship from Britain to America arrives.
nth July, — The Banque du Peuple is opened.
The railway from Laprairie to St. Johns is opened for traffic.
Mr. Gugy, having declared his preference for a government of men born
in the Province, Mr. Papineau replies : — " Now, I have no such preference ;
the government I long for is one composed of friends of legality, liberty and
justice, — a government which will protect, indiscriminately, every proper
interest, and accord to all ranks, and to each race of the inhabitants, equal
rights and privileges.
" I love, I esteem all good men, as men, not preferentially, because they
are of this or that descent ; but I detest those haughty dominators, who come

135
among us, and dispute our right to enjoy our own laws, customs and religion.
" The call is made upon us, — ' Let us be all as brothers ! I respond, so
let us not be, if you, who thus adjure us, keep a selfish grasp of aU place.
power and endowment. That is unjust, and we cannot suffer such injustice.
Briefly, we demand for ourselves such political institutions as are in
accordance with the rest of the EmjDire and with the age we hve in."
To Mr. Bedard, who declares that, as the address refuses all the Governor
asks, he cannot support it, Mr. Papineau replies :
" The force of circumstances compels us to put aside accustomed formali
ties, and to express, unrestrainedly, what we deeply feel. It would be a
libel on Britain to assume that she may possibly pass a coercion Bill against
us, and send ten regiments over to enforce it. If such were the case, how
ever, we ought to be prepared, all the sooner, to rid ourselves of so tyran
nical a Domination."
This revolutionary speech reduces the Country Party in the House to less

The Governor wiU not sign a warrant for sessional expenses, until past
payments are ratified. He jirorogues the House.
In the British Parliament, Mr. Stanley says there is no evidence to justify

Sir Robert Peel announces that a Commission will investigate Canadian
affairs, and report; but that no change of Constitution will be immediately

13th Dec, — Sir John Colborne, Governor General, Messrs. Moffat,
Stuart and Badgley go to England, to represent British Canadian views.
Lord Howick declares: — " If I thought the great mass of people were
hostile to Britain, I should say that what ought to be done woi Id be to see
how a final separation between them and us could be effectuated without
sacrificing British interests ; but I do not think that British Canadians are
opposed to British domination, for our alliance is more necessary to them
than their connection is important to us."
Of the French Canadians, he says : — " If it be only for their laws
and particular usages that they are struggling, surrounded, as they are,
by people of other races, they must be aware that they would be made
to undergo, if they lost British protection, a much more violent change
than any which they have yet had to endure ; and, certainly, greater

144
and more general than any which we may mean to prescribe for them."
He adds that : — " Unlimited executive responsibility i: irreconcilable with
the relations which ought to exist between a colony and the metropolitan
power." Mr. Grote says : — " If the violation, in part, of the Constitution
determined the Canadians to arm in defence of their rights, how will they
endure the suspension of the Constitution entirely and the confiscation of
popular freedom ? "

In 1838, when this important industry was founded by William Rodden,
it could hardly have been foreseen that a lad, then of five years, away in
County Cavan, Ireland, was destined to become its proprietor.
William Clendinneng who was born in Cavan, in 1833, came to Montreal
in 1847, 3-"d, in 1852, was employed by William Rodden, in the busi
ness of which he is now the senior proprietor. From a clerkship, Mr.
Rodden advanced him to a partnership. He was afterwards sole owner,
until his son and namesake, William Clendinneng, jr., became his partner in
1884. Ofthe younger partner a recent publication says : —
" Much of the success of the firm is due to his talents and energy."
So supported, Mr. Clendinneng, sr., is at liberty to exercise his natural
aptitude for engaging in public affairs, in the course of which he has been
repeatedly elected a City Councillor, and has had the honor to represent
the city in the Legislative Assembly.

145
He has also been the acting Mayor of Montreal and its delegate to nego
tiate a loan in England, is a Governor of the General Hospital and of
several other humane and charitable institutions.
A complete list of the firm's manufactures can hardly be made, but
among them may be mentioned ;— Railway and Agricultural Castings,
machinery of m.my kinds, hall, parlor and kitchen stoves (including the
Leader, with its famous round fire-pot), furnaces, ranges, bed-steads, balco
nies and railings, brackets, crests, funnels, builders' castings, house -furnish
ing goods, in tin, iron, copper and various compositions.
Messrs. Clendinning cSt Son employ a regiment of strong, skilled men;
and, more or less directly, give support to four or five thousand ofthe popu
lation of Montreal and its suburbs.
They have three acres of works, some of which are conducted on several
flats. William Clendinneng, jr., is president of the Canada Pipe Company and
is prominent in an Association which tends to promote the industrial and
political interests of Canada. A.D. 1839.

170 McGill Street, - MONTREAL.
The late Joseph Mackay, Esq., began business alone in Montreal, in 1840.
He subsequently took into partnership with him his brother, the late
Edward Mackay, and, at later dates, their three nephews, the late Hon. Hugh
Mackay, the late James Mackay and Robert Mackay, the present head of
the firm, entered the business.
The house has enjoyed for many years a large and profitable busi
ness, with the most reliable class of retail merchants throughout the
Canadas and the more distant Provinces, and has become, consequently,
one of the wealthiest in the Dominion.
Since the death of the Hon. Hugh Mackay, whose hopeless ill health
compelled him to resign political honors, Robert Mackay is the sole repre
sentative of the family continuing in business, from which the management
of a large estate and social and public demands upon his time, incline him
to retire before his sons are of an age to replace him.
The family name is connected with only one of the numerous beneficent
charities to which they have liberally contributed, viz., the Mackay Institute
for deaf mutes, which was so named out of gratitude for large endowments
by the late Joseph Mackay, to which his nephews and niece have since
made liberal additions.

JAMES JOHNSTON & CO.,

-IMPORTERS OF-

English, French and German Dry Goods,
Dealers in Gonadian and American CQanufactnrers.
26 ST. HELEN ST., Cor. of Recollet St., - MONTREAL.

The late James Johnston, founder of this well known House, was born at
Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotland, on Tuesday, the 2ist of April, i8i8.
Having, in 1835, visited Canada and returned to Scotland, he was so
pleased with the land he had tpied out, that, in 1842, he left Scotland to reside
permanently at Montreal.
After a short engagement with Mr. Cornell, then one of Montreal's leading
retailers of Dry Goods, he, in the latter part of 1842, began a wholesale
Dry Goods business, on his own account, on St. Frangois Xavier Street.
About the year i860, John Binmore became associated with him, under the
style of "James Johnston & Co".
In 1869, the expanding business warranted a third partner, and James
Slessor, a native of Aberdeenshire, Scotland, who had been .n resident of
Montreal since the Spring of 1857, was taken into the firm. The next change
was Mr. Binmore's retirement in 1878.
On Saturday, the 27th day of May, 1882, the existing partnership was ter
minated, by the death of James Johnston, the senior partner; whereupon, his
son and namesake, James Johnston, joined Mr. Slessor under the old name
of James Johnston & Co.
The business is carried on in a laige, well designed and massive structure,
which was built by the late Mr. Johnston, in 1867 and '68, and was first
occupied in May, 1869.
Doubtless the late Jefferson Davis (ex-President of the Southern Con
federacy) had this, among other buildings, in mind, when he remarked, to the
author, that Montreal had the appearance of having been paid for and was
the most substantially built city he had seen. He had not then crossed the
Ocean. On his return from Europe, he mentioned having seen one equally
well built.

153
The firm traditionally avoid ofifice-holding, but, as it relates to commerce,
Mr. Slessor has accepted election to the Council ofthe Board of Trade, the
Presidency of the Dry Goods Association and membership of the Com
mittee who have helped sufferers by the recent fire in St. John's, Newfound
land, to the extent of more than $40,000,
The firm do not forget the example of its founder, of whom, it is historic,
that he always adhered to principle and to his convictions of right, regard
less of consequences. . , . ESTABI.ISHEO 1842 . . .

Charles Alexander was born in Dundee, Scotland, on Thursday, 13th of
June, 1816.
One brother, when mate of an East Indiaman, was drowned off Good
Hope. Another commanded the " Dundee,'' on the Upper Lakes.
Charles became book-binder, rope-spinner, sailor, ship's-cook, baker, and,
finally, apprentice to the principal confectioner in Dundee, who lodged and
educated him.
On the sth of April, 184c, with wife and child, he sailed from Dundee, to
fill a situation in Montreal.
Whether in rebuke of the ship's name, " Atlantic," or of her weighing
anchor on Sunday, she foundered, at night, on the coast of Newfoundland.
The passengers lost their effects, and one boy his life.
Mr. Alexander, with his child in his arms, was drawn up to an over
hanging rock.
The Scotchmen of Newfoundland fed and clothed his family and for
warded them to Montreal.
In return, Mr. Alexander, in 1892, assisted the people of Newfound
land, who lately suffered by another destroying element.
In June, 1840, Mr. Alexander began working for John Keiller, confec
tioner on Notre Dame street, and soon became his partner ; but when the

154 .
business prospered, Mr. Keiller persuaded him to try London, U. C,
whence he went to Kingston.
Returning, thence, to Montreal, he was introduced, by the Rev. Mr.
Wilkes, to a capitalist who enabled him to begin business on McGill street,
where his wife's assistance"" and his habit of paying for one supply before
ordering another, brought him out of debt in two years.
Having, in 1843, purchased a store on Notre Dame street, then the centre
of business, he was able to pay the price, ;^4,Soo, in five years.
He was a member of St. Andrew's Society, until the incorporation, in
1863, of a broader charity, the Protestant House of Industry and Refuge.
As the fourth President of this charity, for the provision of homes for
the aged and of temporary shelter, he followed, in office, the late John
Redpath, the late WiUiam Murray and the late Wm. Workman.
He is active in promoting out-door rehef, which annually succors hun
dreds of families in Montreal.
His public services as Councillor, Chairman of Committee and negotiator
of a Civic Loan in England procured him a seat in the Local Legislature.
He brought about the classification of prisoners, so that the young, instead
of being contaminated by association with older criminals, are instructed in
useful trades.
In 1872, the recollection of youthful hardships prompted Mr. Alexander
to erect a Boys' Home, of which he has ever since been President.
Last year, the boys had deposits in the Savings Bank, amounting to
nearly $2,000, on which, to encourage them, Mr. Hague generously paid
them 10 per cent, interest.
Mr. Alexander has been President and Vice-President of the Society for
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. He has aided McGill College, but
without forgetting that food and fuel are prior necessities to education.
He was President of the Institute for the Instruction of Deaf-Mutes,
from the 7th of January, 1869, until the late Joseph Mackay's benefactions
led to its having his name and presidency.
Mr. Alexander is probably the oldest office-holder of the General Hospital,
of which he has been Treasurer and Vice-President.
Through others, he, in 1879, 1°^' t'^^° hundred thousand dollars; and
when sixty -five years of age, began again, at the lower rungs of the ladder
of fortune, as bravely as if nature had promised renewal of youth, without
deprivation of experience.
As his genial, kindly sons and partners, Charles and John, have proved
willing and able to lighten the weight of such business as he will resign , the
community may hope that further years of usefulness remain to this other

155
" Grand old man."
The firm's goods are praised by almost universal patronage. Their
Temperance dining-room is a boon, in a city where almost every second
corner bears the invitation '' Licensed to sell"
Mr, Alexander's promotion of the Protestant Insane Hospital and of the
" Fresh Air Fund " are beyond praise, but too recent to be historic.

The late William Henderson, Esq.', who estabhshed this business was
born of Scotch parents, at Derannanning, Fermanagh County, Ireland, on
Friday, ist of June, i8io.
In June, 182c, his father, David Henderson, migrated to Quebec, and
became a lumber merchant, having also a general store in the vicinity of
his timber limits. Upon William Henderson's attainment of majority, he
joined his father; but removed, in 1841, to Montreal, and, in 1842, began a
lumber business which had the success due to integrity, energy and good
judgment. He was a member of Trinity Church. P^ecognizing his duty as
a citizen, he was a City Councillor, from 1867 to 1871, and a hfe member of
the Protestant House of Industry and Refuge, until he died, on the ist of
October, 1891.
His sons, David H. and Norman B. Henderson, worthy sons of a good
father, are the present proprietors of the mill, which is the largest about

exactly half a century ago, and which, owing to the excellence of his man
ufactures and to his habit of dealing fairly with his customers, has long been
the largest as well as the oldest wholesale and retail furniture establishment
in the Province and the one which has taken the most medals and prizes at
exhibitions at home and abroad.

-^COL^OISri AL. * Housei*-
St. Catherine St., NlONTREAL.

The business of Henry Morgan & Co. was begun in 1B45, ^Y David
Smith and Henry Morgan, at number 204 (now 1826) Notre Dame street.
The firm then employed nine clerks.
Of their early competitors in business, Thomas Mussen died last year, and
only Francis Dolan is still active.
In 1851 Mr. Smith removed to Chicago, where he was enriched by the
drug trade.
In that year, the firm advertised, in the Canada Directory, that, through
connection with the first houses in London, Glasgow and Paris, they were
enabled to have the latest fashions, almost as soon as they appeared in those
cities. Following the departure of David Smith, the late James Morgan, senior,
who was, in 1838, junior partner in the thrifty firm of Muirhead & Morgan,
in Glasgow, Scotland, desirous of joining his brother Henry, left the Glasgow
business, which afterwards made the late Mr. Muirhead very wealthy, and
is still continued by his former employes.
The two brothers were so prosperous that, in 1858, they added a St.
Joseph street front to the premises, at 208 and 210 McGill street, which
they occupied for several years, and found room and employment for one
hundred clerks.
In 1866, the late Harrison Stephens built fiir their use a larger store, on
the site of the old American Church, on St. James street, with a view of
what is now Victoria Square ; and they were enabled to increase their staff
to 120.
In 1874, an additional storey made possible the addition of carpet and
tailoring departments and the employment of two hundred assistants.
In 1888, James Morgan, the elder, retired from business, and his son James,
and nephew Colin Morgan, joined Mr. Henry Morgan, without change of
style. In 1889, to the alarm of a considerable number of people, the firm
resolved to move up town, and somewhat westward, about half a mile from
their then place of business ; and bought, for the purpose, land fronting on St.
Catherine street, Union Avenue and Aylmer street, whereon to erect the
largest store in Canada, plans for which were not drawn until after consult
ing the principal architects, and visiting the largest stores, in America.

Ifil
The building which was opened on Tuesday, 21st of April, 1891, has
110,000 square feet of floor-room. The first storey is twenty feet in height,
and the building cost over $400,000.
It enabled the firm to add departments for furniture, china-ware, kitchen
utensils and drugs and to employ over four hundred assistants.
To give an idea of the relative extent of the Morgan's business, it may be
remarked that the premises recently left for larger ones now house a com
bination of iwo large retail firms (one of which filled the old St. George's,
Church building) and four wholesale stores and manufactories, with room to
spare. Many leading merchants throughout Canada were schooled in this famous
house ; and its occasional customers comprise the Hite of all Canada.
The year 1888, in which James Morgan, senior, retired, was the jubilee
year of the business of Muirhead & Morgan, which he helped to establish
in Scotland.
He was not permitted to see the fiftieth year of H. Morgan & Co., for
on the 28th March, 1893, in the fourth year after he had left business for the
seclusion of his charming residence, '¦'¦Milton," a name equally suggestive
of its poetic surroundings and of the misfortune which befell the merchant
philosopher in common with the poet, he died respected by all who knew
him. One can hardly help speculating upon the future of a house which, in
forty-eight years, has advanced from the employment of nine to over four
hundred assistants, among which it recently distributed a bonus of $10,000,
and which, if it continues its past rate of advancement, must, within its
second fifty years, extend to four streets and require thousands of clerks to
wait upon millions of customers.
Those friends ofthe firm, who, in 1889, doubted the wisdom of their deter
mination to remove, have their answer, for already Morgan & Co.'s removal
has influenced scores of other establishments to follow to St. Catherine
street, in which vicinity the price of real estate has consequently advanced
millions of dollars. A. D 1845
ist July,— Lord Cathcart, the new governor, arrives.
ist Oct., — Bishop's College, Lennoxville, is opened.
— Dec, — John Dougall issues a specimen Witness.
The Rebellion Losses Commission sits.
The Welland Canal is opened.
The Mechanics Institute, Montreal, is incorporated.

GRAND TRUNK RAIbWAV
OP< CANADA.
It is said that no one should hold more land than he will improve.
Even if subjected to this test, the vast extent of the British Possessions
has been justified, by earnest endeavors to su facilitate inter-communication
as to consolidate the Empire and enrich its inhabitants.
On the 30th of November, 1809, nearly two years before the steamer
" Comet" was placed on the Clyde, the late John Molson's " Accommoda
tion," which was the second steamboat in the world, began running from
Montreal to Quebec.
On the 2Sth of July, 1814, George Stephenson placed the first locomotive
steam-engine on the rails at Killingworth.
163
In the following year, money was voted to begin the construction of a
canal from Montreal to Lachine, in order that navigation might not be
interrupted by the Lachine Rapids.
In 1816, Lake Ontario had its first steamboat ; and, after an interval of
two years, Lake Erie was navigated by steam, in the year 18 18.
In 1819, a steamship crossed the Atlantic, and a steam-boat was placed
on the Ottawa.
In 1822, money was provided to complete the Chambly and Lachine
Canals. In 1825, the Erie Canal was began; and, within the next twelvemonths,
steamers were placed on Lakes St. Francis and St. Louis.
In 1828, the Rideau Canal was begun; and steam navigation between
Quebec and Halifax was subsidized in 1829.
In September, 1830, the Liverpool & Manchester Railway was opened.
In the course of the next year (1831), a Railway, to extend from La
Prairie to St, Johns, was chartered.
In the same year a steamer began running regularly, from Quebec to
Halifax. The Railway from La Prairie to St. Johns was opened, in 1836 ; and in
1849, the Line from Longueuil to St. Hyacinthe (subsequently part of the
Grand Trunk) was completed.
In 1851, the St. Lawrence & Atlantic Railway was complete to Richmond ;
and, on the nth of September, 1852, its opening to Sherbrooke was cele
brated. In 1853, the Atlantic & St. Lawrence Railway was carried to Island
Pond. Also, in 1853, Messrs. Peto, Brassey, Betts and Jackson undertook to
construct railways from Montreal to Toronto and from Quebec to Trois
Pistoles, and, a Railway from Sarnia to Toronto was placed under con
tract. It was to be a " first-class single track railway, with the foundation of all
" the large structures provided for a double track, up to the earth level, and
" to be superior to any Canadian or American railway," then " known or
"used, and equal to the first-class English railways,'' and such " as would
" be approved of by the railway engineers of England of the highest stand-
'' ing and experience."
In 1853, fi'^e roads were united as the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada,
As, without a bridge, there would have been two roads, each with rolling-
stock, which the other could not use, the Victoria Bridge, designed by
Robert Stephenson, was begun in July, 1854, and opened, for traffic, in
1859.

164
The G.T.R. Company, having taken a lease of the Atlantic & St. Law
rence Railway, to Portland, for (,99 years, extended their Line, to Brock
ville, to which place it was opened on the 19th of November, 1855, and to
Toronto on the 27th of October, 1856.
The Great Western (now part of the Grand Trunk Railway system) was
completed in 1858.
In 1854, there were 471 freight cars from Montreal to Poitland.
In 1892, there are over 22,000, on the whole Line, mostly of double the
former capacity.
In 1882, the company had 1,418 miles of road, now it has 4,500 miles,
and employs over 20,000 men.
As the Company has never disregarded the axiom that "a straight line
is the shortest distance between two poin's," and has kept to the English
standard, it enjoys general respect, confidence and patronage.
Its tnterprise is shown by its passenger station, at Montreal, and by its
tunnel under the St. Clair River, as well as by numerous short lines,
recently constructed, for the public accommodation.
At the inception of the enterprise, which culminated in, and took the
name of, the Grand Trunk Railway, Canada's population was sparse and
poor. The chief outside market for cattle ai)d grain was found in the States,
which produced the same commodities in abundance, and the expense of
driving the former and the carriage ofthe latter almost consumed the farm
ers' profits. At a distance from navigable streams, large quaniiiies of
lumber decayed, while waiting for a purchaser, even by way of barter.
All this was changed by the Grand Trunk Railway. Therefore, in the
distribution of public favors, Canadians should never allow their Repre
sentatives to forget that, to the Grand Trunk Railway is due the credit
of enhancing the value of every acre and every product in Upper and
Lower Canada; and they should not forget that the majority of those who
originally promoted and fostered this great enterprise, which wrought the
salvation of this country, almost entirely lost the money they invested, and
that, among their number, were many widows, orphans and retired officers
and merchants, who could not protect themselves or make good their
losses. In particular, the people of Canada ought never to be ungrateful to that
upright and able politician, Sir Alexander Tilloch Gait, who was the first
person in Canada to subscribe for stock in the company, and who, besides
adventuring his whole fortune, gave to the undertaking the advantage ofhis
counsel and direction and ofhis great influence, until the project became an
accomplished fact.

165
The company's general manager, Lewis James Seargeant, Esq., sees, like
his most eminent predecessors, no incompatibility between the interests of
the company and of the country. His experience has included the
working of the South Wales Railway, The Great Western (Eng.), the
South Devon, the Cornwall and West Cornwall Railways, on some of
which he held the general managership. He refused the manager
ship of a leading system of Railways in India, to come to Canada. Having
arrived, in 1874, he acquired a thorough acquaintance with the road before
succeeding, in 1890, to the position vacated by Sir Joseph Hickson. He
has, fortunately, the assistance of William Wainwright, assistant general man
ager ; J. Burton, general freight agent; Herbert Wallis, mechanical superin
tendent: Robert Wright, treasurer; and other experienced ofllicers.
When the late Mr. Brydges retired, Canadians presented him with a large
sum of money, to testify their respect ; and Her Majesty, in making Joseph
Hickson, Esq., Sir Joseph, for Imperial services, did not anticipate popular
commendation, which has been shown by frequent invitations to accept of
banquets and of a seat in Parliament, representing important constituencies,
to which he always courteously replied that his time was the Company's.
While no prediction of Royal favor, which is of grace only, can be made,
it is safe to say that the people of Canada are prepared to support the pre
sent administration of their ^old and good friend, the first great Railway of
Canada, which, with its ramifications, alliances and dependencies, now
reaches the older Provinces and the States of Maine, New Hampshire, Ver
mont, New York, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan. Indeed, its influence
extends throughout the continent and across the ocean.

This important business was established, in 1846, by the late John and
Robert Esdaile, brothers and natives of Scotland.
After accumulating ample means, John retired, leaving Robert the busi
ness, in which he continued active until he died in July, 1882.
Robert M. Esdaile, his son, having entered the office as a clerk, in 1867,
and become a partner in 1878, continues the business, and was lately
President ofthe Corn Exchange Association, an office which his father was
the first to hold.

171
G  ESTABLISHED 1847  O

This business was established in 1846, when the late Ira Gould leased
from Government hydraulic lots on the great Basin of the Lachine Canah
and erected the largest flouring mill in Lower Canada. He soon gained,
for the products of his mill, an enviable reputation in Canada and Great
Britain, where he came into successful competition with other American
millers. Finding the capacity of his mill — 500 barrels per day — inadequate,
he built a second, which increased his daily manufacture to 800 barrels of
flour. In i860, he associated with him two of his sons, under the style of Ira
Gould & Sons.
In 1872, in his seventy-third year, congestion ofthe brain suddenly ter
minated the useful life of the head of the firm, who died respected by the
whole community.
The chief management then devolved upon Charles H. Gould, under
whose direction the House has, for twenty years, maintained an enviable
reputation. Eight years ago, the firm converted a stone mill into a first-class roller-
mill, with a daily capacity of 550 barrels. Four years later, the second mill
was re-built, making the total daily output 1,200 barrels.
In these alterations, no expense was spared to utilize all known improve
ments. In 1891, Mr. W W. Ogilvie, whose extensive milling business is known
throughout the trade, purchased Messrs. Gould & Suns' mills and ware
houses. The general convictions that the high reputation of the " City
Mills," under their founder and his sons, will be perpetuated by the new
proprietor does equal honor to both firms.

The firm of Benning & Barsalou originated in the firm of Young & Ben-
ning, which was estabhshed in 1847, by James Young and James Benning.
In 1853, the style was changed to Benning & Barsalou, Joseph Barsalou,
Esq., who had long managed the firm's financial affairs, having become a
partner. Following Mr. Benning's death, Joseph Barsalou was the sole
member of the firm, until his son, Arthur Barsalou joined him.
In the crisis of 1874 and 1875, the firm lost a quarter of a million dollars,
beginning with a loss of $122,000 through advances on bills of lading, upon
which only locts on the dollar was realized, but the firm soon regained,
and even surpassed its former excellent financial standing.

ROBBRT LIlVTOItf & CO.,
Corner of ST. HELEN & LEMOINE STS.,
Bfltlsh and Foreign Dry Goods ^
CANADIAN TWEEDS, COTTON, ETC.

In, or about, the year 1848, the late William Stephen, uncle of George
Stephen (now Lord Mount-Stephen)^ established a wholesale dry goods
business at 198 St. Paul street. Afterwards, George Stephen, having come
from Scotland, entered the business, which was then styled William Stephen
& Co. Some years after William Stephen's death, George Stephen dis
posed of his business to the firm of Robertson, Stephen & Co., composed of
the late Andrew Robertson, Robert Linton, John A. Robertson and Francis
Stephen. Eight years ago, the late Andrew Robertson retired from the firm.
The business was then continued by Robert Linton and John A. Robertson.
About 2 years ago. Robert Linton bought out the interest of Mr. Robertson,
and continues the business, in conjunction with Mr. John Black, under the
style of Robert Linton & Co.

F. STEI>HEM & CO.,

@^\|ijaSI^\l » M@il!Ll!Hil

204 and 206 McGiH Slr^el, MONTREAL.

This House represents a business, conducted successively by three mem
bers of one family.
In 1848, the late Wm. Stephen was a wholesale dry goods merchant, at
198 St. Paul street.
Some years afterwards Mr. William Stephen took his nephew, George
Stephen, into partnership with him.
In 1867, George Stephen, who since became successiv jly Sir George
Stephen and Lord Mount-Stephen, having continued the business after his
uncle's decease, and desiring to engage in promoting the woolen manufac
tures of Canada, transferred his business to the late Andrew Robertson,
Esq., Francis Stephen (a younger brother of Lord Mount-Stephen) and
Robert Linton, under the style of Robertson, Stephen & Co.
George and Francis Stephen afterwards represented several leading Can
adian woolen mills, and, when the former abandoned commerce, to construct
the Canadian Pacific Railway, Francis Stephen, who already represented the
Rosamond Mills, at Almonte, was additionally charged with the disposal of
the entire product of the Pa ton Factory, at Sherbrooke, and, since, of
Willett's mills at Chambly.
A commercial publication says: — "The firm of F. Stephen & Co. is
fairly entitled to the distinction of being the leading one in what is known
as the Canadian Tweed trade."
It is characteristic of Lord Mount-Stephen, that, when Her Majesty hon
ored Canada, by calling one of her adopted sons to participate in Imperial
deliberations, in the House of Lords, the enterprises with which he had
been connected were in such hands that not a wheel stopped, of the
factories where, largely through his enterprise, thousands earn their
daily bread. The honor reflected upon Stephen & Co., by Sir George's
advancement to the peerage, for promoting a new highway to the East,
was anticipated by a popular patent of nobility, the gratitude of benefi
ciaries by endowments, hardly equalled in the History of Canada, except
by those of his friend and co-worker. Sir Donald A. Smith.

Jacques Grenier, who founded this house in 1850, being a skilled finan
cier, instead of seeking, has been sought by, many public offices.
He has been almost continuously, from 1857, ^ City Councillor, during
many years Chairman of the Civic Committee of Finance, and for a time
Mayor of Montreal.
He has long held the Presidency of the Banque du Peuple, the Vice-Pre
sidency of the Hochelaga Cotton Company, and, for a time, the Vice-Pre
sidency of the Board of Trade, besides numerous Directorships of Assur
ance, Navigation and Manufacturing Companies, etc., etc. Amidst the
perplexities of business, he has never been known to forget that he is a
gentleman, nor lightly to assume that another is not one.
He was born at Berthier, on Monday, 20th of January, 1823, but his 70th
year sits so hghtly upon him, that although his son, Gustave, is interested in
the business, he may not, in this century, take the helm from the hand which
grasped it, with skill and vigor, in the last year of the last half century.
JDUl^TCJ^lST BELL,
Merchant and Manufacturers' Agent,
15 Victoria Square, - MONTREAL.

The business established by Duncan Bell, in Hamilton, in 1850, in
Toronto, in 1854, and in Montreal, in 1863, is now carried on by the

185
founder's sons, among whose agencies for English and Canadian manufac
tures are some that have been held 30 and 40 years.

ROBERT GARDNER tt SON,
40 to 54 Ifazareth a^lI of ^mm anil Dalhousie Sts., WMWl

-MANUFACTUEEES OF-

Lathes, Machinery and Fine Tools, Shafting,
Hangers and Pulleys, Engines, Boilers,

Cracker and Biscuit Machitery, &c., &c.

The late Robert Gardner, who founded this business, was born at Loch
Winnoch, Scotland, and having been thoroughly trained as a mechanical
engineer at that home of machinery. Paisley, readily found employment on
arriving at Montreal, in 1842. But mechanical skill and ingenuity, being
then at a premium in New York City, Mr. Gardner accepted the foreman-
ship of the New York Novelty Works, until, in 1850, he was persuaded to

186
return to the Canadian metropolis, and established the works which still bear
his name and proofs of his remarkable ability.
As his eldest son, Robert, early discovered a preference for the paternal
business, his education and manual training were so directed, that, in 1868,
he became his father's partner, and succeeded him in the business, at his
death, which occurred on the 22nd of August, 1891.
The opinion of Robert Gardner, the present owner of the works, is so
highly esteemed, that his counsel is infrequent request by manufacturers,
schools of applied science, etc., etc.
Much of the machinery in the engineering building, presented by W. C.
Macdonald, Esq., to McGill College, .was made in Mr. Gardner's works.
Despite liis youthful appearance, Mr. Gardner has had twenty years'
experience in the Volunteer Force of Canada, and it is several years since
he resigned command of the Regiment of Fusihers (the non-pareils of
Montreal's soldiery), which step was necessitated by the demands of a
business that requires exclusive attention to the inventing, designing and
perfecting of the numerous novel machines and devices required by the
condition of modern life and the attainments of modern science. Mr.
Gardner was an ensign at the time of the first Fenian Raid, and was on duty
at St. Regis and vicinity. During the second raid, he was a captain at
Pigeon Hill.
The large works facing on three streets, and covering 50,000 square feet
of ground, are full of labor-saving machinery, under direction of a large
force of skilled operatives.
The steam which heats the works and the electricity which illuminate
them, are produced on the premises.
Praise of B. Gardner & Sons' specialties or machinery is unnecessary,
for are they not known wherever commerce can bear ihem ?

People who can travel, and agree with Valentine that ; " Home-keeping
youth have ever homely wits ", are always pleased to find themselves under
the roof of genial Henry Hogan, who has a gentlemanly wish to see his
guests well fed and comfortable.
From 1851, when Mr. Hogan opened the Hall, it has almost constantly
approached its present perfection.
189
It has enjoyed the patronage of the Queen's children, of distinguished
British Generals, of the late Dom Pedro, of foreign Princes, Presidents and
Vice-Presidents, of the late Jefferson Davis, of Governors, Lieutenant-
Governors, high dignitaries of Church, and the British and foreign nobility.
The spacious halls and dining room, unlike some, were not designed
merely to inspire awe, and the hundreds of bedrooms are furnished with
regard to the fact that a traveler is naturally fatigued.
As to the cuisine, the heads of well conducted households visit the Hall
for object-lessons in cooking and serving viands, etc.
It is impossible to apportion praise for the Hall's superiority, between
Mr. Hogan and his nephew S. Montgomery, who, without failing to note
everything of importance, overlooks this vast hostelry with the air of a mere
spectator.

OFFICE, loe-
FACTORY, 111
Windsor Street,
'rMm^
Bruno LeDoux, the founder of this important industry, was the son of a
thrifty farmer, at Verch^res.
Having, in 1849, attained the age of seventeen years, he turned his face to
the city and his back to the paternal farm.
Even a native of London, Paris or Berlin might have despaired of so
faithfully reproducing, in a new country, the graceful works of the old world
as to satisfy the exacting taste and the critical eye of a Queen's sons and
193
daughters, but that a youth reared in a country parish, where a well designed
carriage was seldom s;en, should have evolved the admirable combinations
of strength and beauty which have made the name B. LeDoux famous on
two Continents, is altogether marvelous.
It was venturesome of the lad to exchange the inlierited promise, that har
vest shall follow seed-time, for the uncertainties of city life ; but, he was made
bold, by the consciousness of genius, which is proved by scores of trophies,
won at home and abroad.
The medals and diplomas, which adorn the firm's ware-rooms, show
that the designs of the farmer's son have successfully competed, not only in
this and its sister Provinces, but, even in London and at Philadelphia.
Had the chapeau of the young farmer covered the head of a mere artist,
the name of B. Ledoux would have fallen short of its actual destiny.
Happily, in him, genius accompanied a dexterous hand, quickness of per
ception, knowledge of men and native courtesy, so that the assistants, whom
he chose with prudence, speedily became masters of their art, and so attached
to their employer that a number still remain, though the master is gone.
As a complete list of the late Mr. Ledoux's trophies would be tediously
long, it may suffice to add that he and his successors have enjoyed the
patronage of several Governors General, of the Princess Louise and most of
the Queen's sons.
Largely as the retention of the distinguished patronage of this famous
factory is due to the permanent influence ofthe founder's master-mind, it is
also, in no small degree, attributable to the son's following closely in his
father's steps, thus furnishing another of the rare instances of the inheritance
of exceptional talent.
As the Witness has not the reputation of exaggerating, it may be excusable
to quote from its obituary notice of the late Mr. Ledoux : " In social life
" the deceased was much beloved, and the respect paid to his memory by
" the carriage-makers of Montreal, at his funeral, shows that the title ' father
" of the carriage makers ' was not misapplied. His success in life should
" be a beacon to his fellow-countrymen to follow in the path of honesty,
" integrity and industry."
The following partial list of trophies may serve to interest and inform
the public : ist Prize and Diplomas at Provincial Exhibitions of 1868 and
1870; at the Centennial Exhibition, Philadelphia, in 1876; at the Sidney,
N.S.W., Exhibition, in 1877 ; and, in 1886, a medal from the Colonial and
Indian Exhibition of South Kensington, London, England.
Perhaps the best testimonial, the firm has received, is the recent order, by
the Ladies of Canada, of a wedding present, for the Duchess of York.

The proprietors are engineers, millwrights, machinists, bolier-makers, etc.
The works were established by the late John McDougall, native of
Jedboro, Scotland, who was President of the Cumberland Railway & Coal
Company. The works employ 150 skilled men.
They lately supplied the Spring Hill mines with a boiler weighing 40,000
lbs. It seemed immoveable, but was carried away by mere gravitation, on
the Canal, which provides motive power, from rapids capable of five millions
of horse-power. The intersection of rail and river leads, to these works,
the patronage of all the Provinces. Until a few days since, when a fire des
troyed many of them, forty years' patterns were stored, for making duplicates.
New patterns are made on the premises.
A pit 20 x 18 feet lately yielded the largest pulley yet produced in
Canada. A compound engine displays the skill of many workmen, who
have, separately, made the parts so accurately that the combination acts as
if produced by a single hand.
There is machinery for punching through 4 inches of iron, a steam-ham
mer, that could crush an oaken beam, yet a hand's pressure stops the blow
two hairs' breadth short of contact.
There is also the largest iron-planing machine in the Dominion.
Electric light is produced on the premises.
A pulp-machine, recently made, will render marketable, otherwise worth
less wood, cut in the idle winter.

HON. JA/VIES KGWIaEy WARD, ^.h.Q.&c.
The Hon. James Kewley Ward's names couple the surnames of his parents.
John Ward, his father, after serving in the 3rd Regiment of Dragoon Guards,
married Elizabeth Kewley, in the Isle of Man, of which Island she was a
native. On the ninth day, of the ninth month, in the nineteenth year, of the nine
teenth century, the subject of this sketch was born, at Peel, in the Isle of
Man. He can, therefore, claim the distinction of being a Manxman, although
his father was a native of England.
Mr. Ward survives all his three brothers. Two of them died on the West
Coast of Africa, and one at home, after tempting the perils of the sea for forty
years.

198
In 1842, provided with a common school education and a trade, Mr.
Ward sailed for New York. After a two months' voyage, he immediately
found employment at his trade, but, in 1845, exchanged it for a clerk
ship with a lumbering company in Western New York, where he afterwards
undertook lumbering on his own account. In 1853, he transferred his
lumbering operations to the MaskinongS River, in Lower Canada.
In 1863, the failure of Norcross, Phillips & Co. left idle the "American
Saw Mills," at Three Rivers, perhaps the largest steam-mills in the country,
at that time. Mr. Ward courageously undertook to run them, and succeeded
so well, that, in 1870, he was able to extend operations to the Ottawa and its
tributaries, including the River Rouge, the logs from which are sawn at his
mills, on the Lachine Canal.
To assist in building up the manufacturing interests of his adopted
country, Mr. Ward was among the original stock-holders in the Magog,
Coaticook, Valleyfield and Merchants' Cotton Mills, and has been a Direc
tor of aU and President of three of them.
He has not allowed his private affairs to exclude, or obscure, atten
tion to his duties as a citizen, and, in the past twenty years, it is probable
that few Canadians have held as many offices and attended as many
meetings, affecting the public weal, as he.
At such meetings, his opinions, though tendered with diffidence, always
command the respect due to common-sense and large experience.
If, after the day's labors, there aie still pubhc duties to be performed, he
leaves the comforts of home to begin again, as though he never felt fatigue.
Having joined in organizing Cote St. Antoine as a Municipality, he has
been nine years Mayor and twice nine years a Councillor.
In the same municipality he has been Chairman of the School-Commis
sioners, from the organization of the Board, until now, and, in concert with
the late Judge Sanborn, of honored memory, gave the Cote one of the best
schools in Canada.
He is on the Board of Management of St. George's Society, and has thrice
been its President.
The Liberal party have paid him the compliment of choosing him as their
Candidate to oppose, successively, two ofthe strongest Conservatives, viz.,
the late M. H. Gault, M.P., and Sir Donald A. Smith, M.P., &c.
In the latter case, the contest was hopeless, for, to say nothing of the pres
tige and patronage of the party in power. Sir Donald had made the people
of Montreal, and humanity generally, his debtors, by judicious and munificent
benefactions. Of the whole Liberal party, the one who least regretted the defeat was
Mr. Ward. But failure at the polls has not saved him the labor and

199
responsibility of assisting in the Country's Legislation, for he was nominated
to the Legislative Councilorship of Victoria, vacated, successively, by the
Hon. Mr. Ferrier's death and by the resignation ofthe Hon. Hugh McKay.
The appointment was the more acceptable, because unsolicited and un
expected, and because the Victorian Division includes the Western portions
of the City and Island of Montreal, with the interests of which his places
of residence and of business familiarize him.
Besides contributing liberally to charities in the Isle of Man, he has
given generously to the Wesleyan University, the Hospital for the Insane,
the Boys' Home and other charitable institutions in, and around, Montreal.
He is President of the Protestant Hospital for the Insane, at Verdun, a
Governor of the General Hospital, on the Board of Management of the Boys'
Home, and Governor of the Western Hospital. He has also been, five years.
President of the Protestant Infants' Home, and is actively connected with
the Protestant House of Industry, in Montreal and at Longue Pointe.
Remembering that he accumulated some of his means at Three Rivers,
he has assisted in securing that town a Park, and has given it a central site
for a Protestant School.
Of his ten children, of whom seven are daughters, four are married, his
sons-in-law being Mr. M. Davis, Charles I. Root and Charles Cantin.
One of his sons is married to a daughter of the late Mr. Reekie, who
helped Messrs. Morton, Peto & Brassey to build the Grand Trunk Railroad,
from Levis to Stanfold.
Mr. Ward's assistants in the lumbering business are Mr. J. H. Redfern,
Charles I. Root and J. Ward ; but, though in his seventy-fifth year, the
senior partner does not shirk his proportion of the work.
(Successors, in 1878, to James Gobdon, established 1853,)

N.B. — It is worthy of note that the late James Gordon, father of the
present leading Tea and Sugar Broker, in the city, was first, in the same
lines, when the direct importation of tea and the refining of sugar were in
their infancy, in Montreal.
He acted as Broker for Torrance & Co., at this year's (their first) annual
sale of Teas, imported direct from China.

^t/KS-XtRH T0WN6HIP6 BANK^
Prior to 1859, '^'^^ o"ly banking facilities enjoyed by residents of the
Eastern Townships, and, in fact, east of Montreal, were two small agencies
of the oil City Bank of Montreal — now defunct, — one at Sherbrooke, the
other at Stanstead Plain. Business and manufacturing languished, for want
of accommodation, which the Bank agencies could have supplied, but which
was withheld by the Management, at headquarters, owing to their want
of appreciation of the capability of the business men of the Townships.
205
That the field was a good one, and that a safe and profitable business
could have been done, has since been demonstrated ; but, this was not
believed, at the time, and the business men found their only recourse
was to endeavor to organize a Bank of their own. This seemed a gigantic
undertaking, in view of the fact that there were few men of wealth,
although there were many who were quite prosperous. It was thought, if
the scattered capital of the Townships could be combined, as it would be
in the establishment of a Bank, and carefully loaned out to foster manufac
turing and other industries, it would not only be a boon to the country, but
would, also, be found profitable. Accordingly, it was decided to apply for
a charter and endeavor to raise the necessary capital.
In 1855, an application was made to the Provincial Parliament, then
sitting at Quebec, and a Charter was granted, but fixing the capital at
£250,000, or $1,000,000. This was a much larger amount than the promo
ters contemplated, and it was considered impracticable to raise so much,
or, if raised, to employ it safely and profitably. The charter was, therefore,
allowed to stand, but the enterprise was not given up.
In 1858, an amendment to the charter was obtained, reducing the amount
to $400,000. This gave the promoters fresh courage, and they at once set
about a thorough canvass for stock -subscriptions. It was decided, if pos
sible, to get subscriptions from all sections of the Townships, with the view
of having the interest in the institution as general as possible. To accom
plish this, it was understood that three branch banks should be established,
as soon as the Head Office should be in working order. The necessary
stock was finally secured, and, in August, 1859, the Shareholders were
called together, in Sherbrooke, to organize.
The following gentlemen, who had been very active in promoting the Bank,
were elected the first Directors, viz. : —
Col. Benjamin Pomeroy, Compton.
Chas. Brooks, Lennoxville.
R. W. Heneker, Sherbrooke.
John Henry Pope, Cookshire.
A. A. Adams, Coaticooke.
G. K. Foster, Richmond.
H. R. Robinson, Waterloo.
The organization was completed by the election of Col. Benj. Pomeroy,
as president; Chas. Brooks, vice-president; and W. S. Foster, assistant
cashier of the People's Bank, Derby Line, as cashier.
On the 19th of September, following, the Bank opened its doors for busi
ness, with $100,000 paid capital.

206
It may justly be claimed, that the date ofthe establishment of the Bank was
contemporaneous with the start of the Townships, on the up grade of pros
perity. New life seemed to have been infused into all branches of busi
ness. The management were liberal, in lending assistance to all legitimate
enterprises. The farmers' requirements were also supplied, and, as a result,
the new Bank prospered beyond the most sanguine expectations of its
promoters. Carrying out the promises made, branches were established at the follow
ing points, viz.: Waterloo, G. G. Stevens, Manager.
Stanstead, A. P. Ball, "
Stanbridge, J. C. Baker, "
At the close of the first year, Mr. Foster retired from the Cashiership, and
Mr. W. R. Doak, of Compton, was temporarily appointed to the vacancy,
with William Farwell (also from People's Bank, Derby Line) as Assistant
Cashier. In 1861, Mr. Doak retired, and Mr. Farwell was appointed
Cashier, which position (the title, however, having since been changed to
that of General Manager) he still holds, having now been in the service of
the Bank over thirty-three years.
,The success ofthe Bank is evidence that the Directors and Officers have,
throughout, been men of good judgment and business ability; and it is
doubtful if any Bank can show a record of steady prosperity exceeding that
of the Eastern Townships Bank.
Owing to the general increase of business, it has been found necessary
to increase the Capital Stock of the Bank, at various times, until it now
stands at $1,500,000, with a Reserve Fund of $650,000. The deposits
have also increased very largely, standing, in June last (1893), at
$2,823,813, showing the rapid stride which has been made in the wealth
ofthe Townships during the past thirty years. This, however, does not give
the full extent of the increase in wealth of this prosperous section; as it
must be taken into account that there are now agencies of three other
Banks, competing for deposits and, in addition, the Post Office Savings
Banks, which undoubtedly receive a large share of public favor.
At the date mentioned (June, 1893), the amount of Bills of the Bank in
circulation, was $853,314. These several funds, in addition to large resources,
immediately available to meet any sudden demands, enable the Bank to
accommodate the public to the fullest extent required by them for the busi
ness of the country.
Amongst the names of those who were the original promoters of the enter
prise, and who were always strong supporters of the Bank, may be mentioned :
Col. B. Pomeroy, A. W. Kendrick, Charles Pennoyer and A. Stimson of

207
Compton; Chas. Brooks, Lennoxville; John Henry Pope, J. F. Osgood
and C. A. Bailey of Cookshire; Sir A. T. Gait, R. W. Heneker, J. G.
Robertson, Col. John Moore, Col. G. F. Bowen, L. E. Morris, J. S. Sanborn,
E. T. Brooks and R. D. Morkill, of Sherbrooke ; A. A. Adams, John
Thornton and Lewis Sleeper of Coaticook; T. Lee Terrill, Horace Stewart
and Israel Wood of Stanstead; G. G. Stevens, A. B. Foster, L. S. Hunting
don and H. L. Robinson of Waterloo ; E. O. Brigham and J. N. Galer, of
Missisquoi, and many other prominent men, too numerous to include in this
sketch. Of these gentlemen, some who have passed away served on the Board of
Directors ofthe Bank, and shared the credit of having teen associated in
establishing it on its present soUd basis ; notably, the late Hon. Messrs.
Pope and Terrill, as, respectively, President and Vice-President.
The present Board is composed of the following Shareholders, viz.: —
R. W. Heneker, Sherbrooke, President.
M. H. Cochrane, Hillhurst, Compton, Vice-President.
Israel Wood, Sherbrooke.
J. N. Galer, Dunham.
D. A. Mansur, Stanstead.
Thomas Hart, Richmond.
N. W. Thomas, Coaticook.
T. J. Tuck, Sherbrooke.
Gardner Stevens, Waterloo.
The Bank has now nine offices, at which its business is transacted, all
located at central points in the Townships, and under the management of
able men, trained up in the service ofthe Bank, viz.: — Entered in
Sherbrooke (Head Office), S. Edgell, Manager, 1861
S. F. Morey, Inspector, 1872
Waterloo, W. I. Briggs, Manager, 1861
Cowansville, Jas. Mackinnon, " 1872
Coaticook, B. Austin, " 1870
Richmond, W. L. Ball, " 1871
Stanstead, S. Stevens, " 1873
Granby, E. N. Robinson, " 1873
Huntingdon, W. H. Robinson, " 1876
Bedford, E. W. Morgan, " 1883
The following comparative statement shows the growth of the business of
the Bank, from its organization up to May, 1892, and is also an indication of
the marvelous growth of the Eastern Townships.
According to the sworn statement for June last, the whole authorised capi
tal, of $1,500,000, had been subscribed, and only $95 of it remained unpaid.

208
The customary dividend of 7 percent had been paid. The Reseive Fund
had been augmented to $650,000. The Deposits had increased to $2,735,047,
and the circulation had mounted up to $853,314,

The Molsons Bank began business on Monday, the ist of October, 1855,
with about $300,000, paid up, of ^^250,000, authorized, capital.
The Corporators were William Molson, Hon. George Moffatt, John
Ogilvy Moffatt, George Moffatt, Hon. Samuel Gerrard, Hon. James Ferrier.
William Dow and Johnson Thompson.
The first Directors were William Molson, president ; Hon. John Molson,
vice-president; Thomas Molson, John H. R. Molson (still a Director, after
37 years), and E. Hudon.
In the first year, the dividend was eight per cent., and a Reserve was
begun. Only in 1869, 1870, 1878, 1879, 1880 and 1881 has the dividend fallen
below 8, to from 6 to 7, per cent.
As there have been but two General Managers, four Presidents and four
Vice-Presidents in thirty-seven years, the original idea, of a rest equal to half
the capital, was constantly in view, until realized, and the policy of doing " a
safe, rather than a large, business," enunciated in i860, has made the business
large, as well as safe.
F. Wolferstan Thomas has been General Manager of the Bank for about
twenty-four years.
Notwithstanding his aptitude for finance, he was some time in finding
his vocation.
Scholarly relatives urged the delights of literature ; his father wished him
to enter the Church or the Army ; but, while awaiting a commission, he
received such very practical lessons in Canadian agriculture, as prepared
him to accept a position on the Grand Trunk Railway Engineering staff,
which he held until, in 1852, a clerkship in the Bank of Upper Canada dis
closed the profession for which he has displayed such great aptitude and
ability. A year later he entered the Bank of Montreal, and, in 1865, became its
Manager at London.
Upon the recommendation of E. H. King, ex-President of the Bank of
Montreal, the Hon. (now Sir) D. L. Macpherson nominated him to the
general managership of this Bank, the duties of which he assumed in
July, 1870.
James Elliot, who has been for fourteen years, Local Manager, has received
his entire training, as a banker, in this Institution, which he entered when
eighteen years of age.
A. D. Durnford, Inspector, was Manager, at Sorel, from 1872 to 1874, and
has been twenty-one years in the Bank's employ.

210
The late William Molson, a benefactor of McGill College, of whom the
late Judge Day said that he was one of the rare class " who know the value
of money, yet whose hearts are ever open to the appeals which are made to
their benevolence," was President nearly twenty years, until his death.
John H. R. Molson, to whom McGill College owes many debts of grati
tude, has been over twenty-six years President or Vice-President.
The late Thomas Workman was about thirty years Director and fourteen
years President or Vice-President.
Though started with but $300,000, the Bank, in 1891, loaned $10 429,-
698.81, and had $i3,oi4,2io.86''of assets. Public confidence was further
manifested by deposits of $7,529,357 04 and the average holding of $1,838,-
378 of the Bank's notes.
For the past year the Bank has paid a bonus of i per cent in addition to
its usual dividend of 8 per cent. In June 1893, its loans had increased to
$11,567,387 and its total assets to $14,679,150.
Diminished circulation of the Bank's notes during the U. S. Civil War,
necessitated branches, which, besides affording needed facilities, at neglected
points, greatly increased the Bank's earnings.
The Montreal Branch started in 1855 ; the St. Thomas, London, Owen
Sound and Sorel branches, in 1871 ; the Toronto and Morrisburg, in 1872 ;
the Brockville, Exeter and Meaford, in 1873; the Smith's Falls, in 1874;
the Ridgetown, in 1878; the Clinton, in 1879 ; the Trenton, in 1880 ; the
Aylmer, in 1883; the Woodstock, in 1884; the Hamilton, in 1885 ; the St.
Hyacinthe and Norwich, in 1886; the Waterloo, in 1887 ; the West Toronto
Junction, in 1888; the Winnipeg and Calgary, in 1891.
The annual statements record a "crisis " in 1858, reduced circulation in
1861, in 1863 little prospect of improvement, while the public "receive
foreign coins at more than their intrinsic value," — an evil to which the Bank
had not contributed by importing depreciated silver.
In 1861, when the U.S. war began, the public were carrying $351,261 of
the Bank's notes ; but, in 1867, owing to the glut of silver, the circulation fell
to $88,576. Upon the abatement of the silver nuisance, it rose, in 1871, to
$837,809, and,in 1891, it was $1,838,378, twenty and seven-tenths times as
much as in 1867.
Though Banks, like natural entities, are prone to complain, the reports,
generally, indicate prosperity. For example : in 1864, the Bank's premises
were found too small, but in 1885, 'he anxiety was to find safe employment
for accumulations.
In 1871, it had become desirable to increase the capital to $2,000,000.
In 1882, the Rest was increased from $250,000 to $425,000.
In 1883, it reached $500,000, and, in 1884, it was made $600,000.

211
In 1883, harvest and business were good, and the " vast sums of money
disbursed for construction of the Pacific Railway " eased the money market.
In 1885, the sum of $75,000 was added to the rest.
In 1886, the earnings being 14)^ per cent., the rest was made $800,000,
and in 1888, $1,000,000. In 1893, it stands at $1,150,000.
In 1889, the death ofthe President, Thomas Workman, beclouded prosperity.
The annual report of that year recalls his probity, manliness, tenacity of
purpose, quick perception and sound common-sense.
His last Will proved him a good friend of Canada's chief Institution 0 f

In Mackay's Directory of 1856-57 will be found " Parslow John, bookbinder,
paper ruler and account book manufacturer, 42 St. Francois Xavier Street."
The following year he removed to No. 32 of the same Street. In the year
186 I, we find him located at 252 St. Paul Street.

218
Those were the palmy days of bookbinders, before the business came to
be dabbled in by the majority of printers, booksellers and stationers, albeit
without the least training in this ancient and highly respectable art.
In the year 1870, Mr. Parslow returned to St. Francois Xavier Street, No.
47, and continued in the same place for 15 years. When trade began mov
ing eastward, to keep abreast of tlie times, he secured the handsome store.
No. t6o St. James Street, where he daily welcomes his old friends and makes
new ones.

And 129 Bay St., TOKOKTO.

Beli, Telephone 8149.

This business, which was established in 1858, was undertaken by Thomas
Robin and George W. Sadler, in 1876.
Since Mr. Robin's death, in 1884, it has been owned and carried on by
George W. Sadler, who has had twenty-six years experience of belt-making,
in Canada and the United States.
One's first impression, on entering Robin & Sadler's spacious premises,
is that he sees an over-stock of the finest oak-tanned belting, and he can
hardly believe it to be of home production. Its excellence is due to the
proprietor's practical and thorough acquaintance with the business, as con
ducted by the best makers, in two countries, to his tanning all the leather
he uses (which he does at his large tannery, in Stanbridge), and to his using
only the best portions of selected hides.
Formerly, the less scrupulous wholesale dealers habitually urged the firm
to stamp their goods as made in England or the United States.
Had Messrs. Robin & Sadler stooped to such a fraud, it is clear that every
improvement in their workmanship would have tended to strengthen the
existing prejudice in favor of foreign belting.
From many leading Exhibitions the firm have silver and gold medals,
and, in various ways, have become so widely known as to necessitate a
branch house at Toronto.
As this business is sensitive to whatever affects manufactures generally,
the firm is in position to say, that, under proper control, the National
Policy tends to a healthy development of the manufacturing interests of
the country.

The senior partner of this House may be styled one of the Fathers of the
Carpet trade of Canada.
Beginning as apprentice with the late Robert Campbell, in 1836, he conti
nued as clerk, and finally partner, till he branched out to found the present
business. He has seen the trade develop, from being the insigniticant ad
junct of a dry goods business, when the announcement of an auction sale of
6 bales of carpets was a noteworthy event in the town, and the purchase of
the whole lot by the firm looked upon as a venturesome thing and when
the sale of a Brussels carpet, to some luxurious citizen, was a rarity, up to
the present time of palatial stores, devoted exclusively to the sale of rich
goods, undreamed of in those simple days.
In 1859, Mr. James Bayhs opened up an exclusively " carpet, oilclotn and
curtain warehouse ", in Montreal, and bought out the existing one of R.
Campbell & Co., Toronto, which latter was subsequently discontinued.
In 1876, Mr. Samuel M. Baylis was admitted partner, and the firm stands
to-day, probably, the oldest house in Canada, devoting themselve - exclu .ively
to their special lines.
The firm have, during their long career, sought, by fair and honorable
dealing, close study of the needs of the trade and attention to their custom
ers' interests, to secure and retain the confidence of patrons, scatteiud from
Halifax to Vancouver.

ESTABLISHED IN I860
^Ae tats '^io'hard ^ohn ^evins, Qsq., (Shemist.

As the late Richard John Devins, chemist, who formerly carried on busi
ness at No. 4, St. James street, Montreal, was eminently successful, it seems
decorous to commemorate his estimable qualities, in a book of which he was
one of the most generous patrons, and which is intended for the permanent
use of commercial men.
Richard J. Devins, who was born, in Montreal, on Saturday, the 24th of
June, 1837, was the son of Peter Devins, a native of Sligo, Ireland, who
came to Canada about 1820, and, in 1827, married Miss Ann Maria Holla-
han, from the county of Letrim, Province of Connaught, Ireland, after
waiting for her the scriptural seven years.
Peter Devins combined a legal mind with a kindly nature, and was cre
dited with settling a great number of disputes, which would otherwise have
been decided in the Courts.
He joined, to great business capacity such ready wit, that upon seeing
him hesitate, for a repartee, Hon. Thos. D'Arcy McGee, said : " It is the
first time I ever knew you at loss for a reply."
In a different direction, Richard Devins' talents equalled his father's.
He took a course, at St. Mary's college, and studied medicine, at McGill, to
become a physician ; but the humane disposition, which attracted him to
medicine, made the dissecting room and surgery so repulsive, that he gave
his attention exclusively to chemistry and medicine, at first, with Mr. Burke,
who is still in business, on McGill street. He afterwards went to Lanman
and Kemp's, in New York, only returning when his mother died, in 1857.
He began business, in 1862, next the Court House, in the building which
his father had erected for the use of Alfred Savage, chemist.
In November, 1862, Richard Bolton (who is, in 1893, president and direc
tor of several manufacturing and financial institutions) became his partner;
and the success of Devins & Bolton has probably not been surpassed in the
history of the Canadian Drug Trade.
With courtesy, Mr. Devins combined energy and he was master of the
art of judicious advertising.
He was a musical genius, playing many instruments, by ear, which faculty
furnished him with recreation after the worry of the laboratory and office.
Messrs. Devins & Bolton were the first to introduce a number of medicines
to the Canadian trade, and soon found customers in nearly every drug and
general store in the country. Several years since, the firm was dissolved, but
Mr. Devins still continued to work, until, on Friday, the 19th of February
1892, the active mind and the cunning hand ceased from toil.
Why he, a bachelor, continued in business, after he had secured a compe-

230
tency, is disclosed by his last will and testament, according to which, his
sister (and yours). Sister Devins, of the Grey Nunnery, is directed to use his
ample estate for missions and in good works, at her discretion.
The bachelorhood of Mr. Devins, and the widowhood of Mrs. Thomas
Tiffin, had enabled the three remaining members of the family to live, for
some years past, under the same roof, to the great gratification of the de
ceased gentleman, who died respected and regretted by all who knew him.

MUNDERLOH & CO.,
-IMPOETEES OP-
Commission tSercl^ants and Tonoarders.
General Agents HAMBURG AMERICAN PACKET CONPANY (Hansa Line).
61 St. Sulpiee St., MONTREAL.
S^-MARINE INSURANCE. 
The late Wilhelm Christian Munderloh, founder of this well known House
was born in Elsfleth, Grand Duchy of Oldenberg, Germany, on the gth of
September, 183 1.
In i8S7> he left his native country for Canada.- After three years engage
ment in a wholesale dry goods house, in Montreal, he revisited Germany ;
234
but shortly returned to Montreal, where, in 1861, he commenced business
in the same line on his own account.
Having realized the want of direct communication between Canada and
Continental Europe, one of his first acts, after his appointment as Consul for
the German Empire, in 1871, was to show the German Government and cer
tain steamship owners the advisability of establishing direct steam communi
cation between Canada and Europe. The matter did not, immediately, re
ceive attention in Germany; so Mr. Munderloh tried Belgium, and with
better success, for he, there, found an enterprising firm, Messrs. Steinmann &
Ludwig, ready to send to Montreal a few steamers and sailing vessels, during
the season of navigation.
To secure a better and more regular service, Mr. Munderloh then asked
the Dominion Government for a moderate subsidy, which was granted, after
careful investigation, and a contract, for five years, was entered into; and a
similar one was also made, by the same Government, with the Hansa Steam
ship Company, of Hamburg.
After the expiration of these contracts, steamship communication between
Hamburg, Antwerp and Canada was continued by the Hansa Steamship
Co., of Hamburg, under the management of Messrs. Munderloh & Co., who
act as general agents on this side.
Tlie managing owner of this highly esteemed Line was F. Laeisz, of Ham
burg, under whose able management six new steamers, furnished with the
latest improvements, were built within the last five years, for the Montreal
service. These steamers are admirably adapted to carrying live stock, and
actually carried 9,100 head during the season of 1891, losing only 12, which
would probably have died had they been in the pasture.
Quite a large trade has, consequently, been developed, between Canada
and the continent.
Most ofthe steamers of the Hansa Line take full cargoes of grain, phos
phate and produce, to Hamburg and Antwerp.
Thus, new channels have been opened'to the trade of Canada; and if, for
eign trade does not rapidly increase, it will not be the fault of the Ham
burg American Packet Co., Hansa Line, or their agents, who not only issue
bills of lading to German and Belgian ports, but have arranged regular
connection over their lines, with most of the ports in Africa and Austra
lia, to which they can quote a moderate rate of freight, and grant through
Bills of Lading.
There is nothing to prevent building up a new trade, which, if properly
fostered, must attain a magnitude proportionate to the greatness of the
countries which now invite the merchants of Canada to deal with them.
The late Mr. Munderloh, besides enjoying the confidence Of three succes-

235
sive Emperors of Germany, as proved by his twenty-two years' tenure ofthe
consular office, appears, by his repeated elections as President of the Ger
man Society and by the following resolution of the Board of Trade, to have,
in equal degree, gained the respect of his fellow-citizens.
" Resolved — That the Council of the Montreal Board of Trade has learned,
with much regret, of the death, in Chicago, of Mr. W. C. Munderloh, second
vice-president of the Board ;
"That Mr. Munderloh, during his long residence in Montreal, earned the
respect of its citizens, by an honorable record as an able and successful busi
ness man, retiring in manner, of high character, kindly and courteous to all,
and that, in his death, this Board and the commercial community sustain a
great loss ;
" That the Council gratefully records its appreciation of Mr. Munderloh's
services to the Board, of which he became a member in 1874, and it recalls
with sad pleasure his valuable work, in the Council during the many years
he was elected to membership thereof, i.e., 1880 to 1888, and 1891 to 1895,
and, also, on the building committee, where his indefatigable energy contri
buted largely to the success of the committee's work ;
" That, the Council of the Montreal Board of Trade hereby tenders to the
widow and members of the family its most respectful condolences, in the sad
and sudden bereavement under which they are sorrowing ;
" That, as a further mark of regard for its colleague, the Council attend the
funeral, and that, the general membership of the Board is hereby requested
to join it, in paying that last tribute of respect to his memory."
There is a generally expressed hope that Henry Munderloh, son of the
founder of Munderloh & Co., being the natural successor to the shipping
business of the house, and having a thorough knowledge of consular affairs,
joined with a good share ofhis father's abiHty, urbanity and experience, and
having passed some time in Germany, to improve his acquaintance with
German laws, language and customs, will be appointed to the office which
was vacated by his father's sudden death.
It is understood that, the late Mr. Munderloh's other able and courteous
assistants, Messrs. Charles Byrd and Eugene Von Rappard, wih be asso
ciated with Mr. Henry Munderloh, in the house of Munderloh & Co.
The firm are doubtless the principal suppliers of German and Belgian
goods, to wholesale houses, throughout Canada.
They represent many leading manufacturers, in Europe : among others, the
principal glass-makers, in Belgium, and German manufacturers of dry goods,
novelties, and staples of all kinds, as well as a number of the chief manufac
turers in France.

236
Mr. Munderloh was, for years, President of the German Society, of
Montreal.

The inception of this important factor in Canadian trade was due to the
sagacity and energy of the late John Shedden, who was born in Kilburnie,
Ayrshire, Scotland, 1825.
Leaving his native country, after he had acquired experience in railway
construction, he migrated to the land of wheat fields and long distances,
in which, he assumed, that railways would be of prime necessity.
Soon afterwards, he undertook and satisfactorily completed several rail"
way contracts, in Virginia ; and came to Canada, in 1855.
Conceiving that narrow gauge railways, besides costing less, would admit
of greater speed than others, he was among the foremost promoters of that
system of roads.
Consequently, he was given, and executed, several contracts, for the con
struction of long sections of that class of railways.
His knowledge of the resources ofthe country facilitated his acquisition
of large areas of land for colonization purposes, on which he laid out sev
eral villages, which have all proved prosperous places.
Anticipating that, after the struggle for mere subsistence, characteristic of
a new country, there would follow a demand for superior cattle, he engaged
in importing and breeding high-class stock, and, for some years, held
annual sSles, which were attended by purchasers from distant portions of
this country and the States.
As railways multiplied, he perceived the inconvenience and loss attending
want of system in the delivery of freight, to, and from, the Railway store
houses, and, with great advantage to all concerned, contracted, with several
railway corporations, to do the work of a common carrier.
Consequently, in the Montreal Directory of 1863-64, appears the follow
ing, viz.:—
" Shedden John, general railway contractor and forwarder,

239
" Thomas Symington, agent, Grand Tiunk Railway.
" Office for collection and delivery of freight ; off. 7 St. Helen St."
Mr. Shedden was accidentally killed, on the 14th of May, 1873, ac Can-
nington Station, on the Hne of the Toronto & Nipissing R'y Co'y., of which
he was, then. President.
Owing to his decease, his private business was undertaken by a joint stock
company, of which Thomas Symington became managing director.
Mr. Shedden was uncle of the present managing director, Hugh Paton,
Esq., who, with his lamented brother, was induced to make his home in
Canada, — in the business and social life of which he takes a prominent part.

The proprietor of this business served his apprenticeship with John Hart,
painter, of Toronto, some forty-two years ago, beginning at the bottom of
the ladder, and working his way upward by steadfast application, stimu
lated by an ardent love for the higher branches of his chosen calling, which
he attained, in spite of many disadvantages, until he was regarded as the
i6

242
first man, in his line, in Toronto. He removed to Montreal, in 1862, in con
sequence of the great stringency caused by the panic of 1857, which left
many a well-to-do Torontonian penniless.
After some eight years residence in Montreal, not being satisfied with the
amount of patronage he received as a decorator, and anxious to improve
his ability, in that line, he removed to Brooklyn, N.Y.; but returned to
Montreal, in 1870, after only one year's absence. Resuming his business,
in Craig St., he, afterwards, removed to Bleury Street, and, finally, settled at
2301 St. Catherine St., where he now has one of the finest wall-paper stores
in the Dominion, selling, also, artists' materials and pictures, and carrying
on a large painting and decorating business.

This well known firm, which was established^Jby David Morrice, in 1863,
and now includes his sons David Morrice, junior,~and*W. J. Morrice,
244
represents the majority of the important Cotton Mills of the Dominion and
one of the principal Houses in England.
Among the great Factories, whose entire product passes through the hands
of Messrs. D. Morrice, Sons & Co., are the Dominion Cotton Mills Com
pany (Limited) of Montreal, having mills at Hochelaga, Magog, Coaticook
and Chambly, in the Province of Quebec, at Brantford and Kingston, in
Ontario, at Windsor and Halifax, in Nova Scotia, and, at Moncton, in New
Brunswick. They also represent the Canadian Colored Cotton Mills Company
(Limited) of Montreal, having mills at Cornwall, Hamillon, Merritton and
Dundas, in Ontario, and Milltown, in New Brunswick, and controlling the
products of the Hamilton Cotton Company, of Hamilton, in Ontario, and of
A. Gibson & Sons, of Marysville, in New Brunswick.
Messrs. D. Morrice, Sons & Co. further represent the Coaticook Knitting
Company, and the Cascade N. F. Company, of Coaticook, in the Province
of Quebec ; the Auburn Woolen Company, of Peterboro ; the Penman
Manufacturing Company, of Paris; J. B. Henderson, of Thorold ; J. Ellis,
of Port Dover ; and the Trent Valley Woolen Manufacturing Company, of
Campbellford (the last five in Ontario), and Rylands &: Sons (Limited) of
Manchester, England, the largest dry goods liouse in the World.
Messrs. D. Morrice, Sons & Co. carry a complete stock of every variety
of high class dry goods, and supply the wholesale trade throughout the
Dominion. Twenty- nine years' experience, as a middleman, makes Mr. Morrice, sen.,
an authority with regard to the wants of the Canadian market, and lends
such weight to his counsel as often serves to prevent calamitous over
production. His advice is the more heeded, as he is known to be animated
by philanthropic sentiments. Witness his gift of the Presbyterian Theolo
gical College Building.
David Morrice, jun., and W. J. Morrice, who were admitted as partners in
1883, have proved able lieutenants, under the mild captaincy, which they
have no desire to usurp.

Th? Merchants Bank of Canada^
Head Office, - 205 ST. JAMES STBEET,
This Bank, which was incorporated in 1863, started with only $100,000
of paid up capital, about one-eightieth part of the amount of its present
capital and rest.

248
The Provisional Directors, now all deceased, were men of note in the
commercial and financial affairs of Canada, viz. : —
Hugh (afterwards Sir Hugh) Allan, Damase Masson, Edwin Atwater,
Hon. Louis Renaud, Hon. John Young, H. H. Whitney and Harrison
Stephens. The Bank commenced business, with Sir Hugh Allan as President and
Mr. Jackson Rae as Cashier. For some time, it was purely a local Bank, for
doing the business ofthe City of Montreal, of which it obtained a considerable
share, gradually increasing its capital, for the purpose of carrying it on.
After some years, when the Commercial Bank of Canada failed, and its
business was offered for public competition, its whole assets were purchased
by the Merchants' Bank, and, immediately, a very large extension of its sphere
of operations took place. It became, at once, a Bank with a large number
of Branches, and issued new stock, and called up, a very large amount of
capital, to meet the new conditions. An office was opened in New York,
and also in London, England, while its Branches, in Canada, amounted to
the large number of forty-two.
The Bank, however, suffered most severely during the years of depression
that followed 1874, and its losses were very large. Early in 1S77, the stock
of the Bank fell steadily and a drain of deposits took place. Meetings of
stockholders supervened, which finally resulted in the resignation of the
President and Cashier, the former of whom was replaced by the Hon. John
Hamilton, and the latter by Mr. Geo. Hague, formerly Cashier of the Bank
of Toronto. The history of the Bank, since this time, has been so well known
that it need hardly be enlarged upon.
Public confidence in a Bank so largely depends upon the character of its
Manager, that a short account of one who directs the use of twenty millions,
or more, and has long been in the front rank of his profession, may be of
use, as well as of interest, to the reader.
George Hague, Esq., General Manager of the Merchants' Bank of Canada,
was born in Rotherham, England, in 1825.

249
Being an apt arithmetician, upon leaving school, he was taken into the
Sheffield Banking Company's employ, where he remained eleven years, until,
in 1854, a firm of Railway Contractors engaged him to take charge of their
finances, in Canada.
In 1856, he entered the Bank of Toronto, where he gradually rose, from
the position of Accountant, in the Head Office, to be Manager, at Coburg,
and, ultimately, Cashier (General Manager), at Toronto.
After fourteen years' tenancy of this responsible office, he retired, without
any intention of returning to the anxieties of banking. But he was too
young, and too useful, to be spared; and when, in 1877, the late Mr. Jack
son Rae resigned the management of the Merchants' Bank, Mr. Hague, at
the earnest request of persons of influence, consented to forego his well
earned leisure, and became General Manager of this important Institution.
That he was led to accept office, by a sense of the obligation attaching to
conscious ability to save the Bank from the natural effect of past mistakes,
is beyond doubt. Yet he, himself, could hardly have foreseen the excellent
results of his administration of affairs, which had fallen into great disorder.
Setting the example of working after hours, until the exact condition of
the Bank should be known, his sagacity and long experience enabled him
to suggest, and to use, the measures which have, for many years, enabled
the Bank to pay a dividend of seven per cent., and to increase its rest
from $475,000 to $2,900,000, thus justifying those, who, in their anxiety,
looked to Toronto for one capable of meeting the emergency.
Mr. Hague has not done with work when the Bank closes,N but, putting
off the Bank Manager, he takes an active and very practical interest in edu
cational, charitable and religious institutions.
He was, for many years, chairman of the Congregational College, (to the
endowment of which he has generously contributed) ; he is a Governor of
McGill University ; and has been President of the Young Men's Christian
Association.

250
Considering his known ability, it is not surprising that he was recently
made Chairman of a Royal Commission to devise improvements in the
organization ofthe Civil Service of the Dominion, nor that, on the formation
of a Bankers' Association for Canada, he was chosen its first President.

THE
MDHTiEIL BllSlHESS [OLLEGE,
S Gor. of UiQloria Square and Craig SireGi.
ESTABLISHED 1864
DAVIS S BVIE',
F>roprieiors.
This College was established in connection with the Bryant & Slratton
International chain of Business Colleges, located in the principal cities of
Canada and the United States. It commenced its career in Nordheimer's
Building, in 1864, and, in the following year, moved to Place d'.A.rmes,
where it remained for the extended period of over a quarter of a century.
253
The accommodation in these quarters had long proved insufficient, and,
on the ist of July, 1891, the College removed to the Victoria Block,
corner of Craig street and Victoria Square (late the Y. M. C. A. building).
This building is, in point of completeness, and suitability for the pur
pose of a business college, unsurpassed in Canada. The location is the most
central, the most accessible, and has the best possible surroundings. The
lighting, heating and ventilation of the building are perfect. The rooms are
finished with care, the decorations are harmonious and pleasing, and the
furniture and appointments of the most approved style. The arrangement
of space has been made with a view of estabhshing the course of study upon
broader lines, and with reference to better and larger results.
In 1873, the building was purchased for the college at a cost of $53,000.00,
and is now the largest and best patronized commercial educational institute
in Canada.
The curriculum ot the Montreal Business College is of a thoroughly prac
tical character; theory holds but a secondary position, and it is the aim of
the proprietors, in each department, to make it an actual counterpart of what
a young men may expect to meet, when he enters a business house. The
principal subjects taught are : — book-keping, arithmetic, penmanship, cor
respondence, commercial law and business forms, practical grammar, com
position, spelling and punctuation, shorthand, typewriting and French ; but
this enum:;ration affords a very inadequate idea of what is done to build up
a young man in the requisites of business life.
In addition to these courses is the practical department, a characteristic
feature of this College, where the students have opportunities of putting into
practice what has been acquired in other departments of the school. What
the parade ground is to the military college, the field to the agricultural col
lege, the dissecting-room and hospital to the medical college, and the moot
court to the law school, the practical department is to the thoroughly
equipped business college.
It has been the work of this institution, from its foundation, to meet the
requirements of business, in a city which is, in itself, the embodiment of
commercial life and progress. Nothing better, and nothing truer, can
be said of its course of study than that it has been shaped by the exaction of
the leading Montreal business houses. Mr. Davis has been engaged in the
advancement of this College, ever since its inception, so many years ago. In
fact, there has been no complete change of proprietorship since iis foun
dation, and it enjoys that sort of respect, and confidence an institution of
such established permanency deserves. It has an influence and standing, in
the business community, without parallel, and is acknowledged to be the best
medium, in this country, for giving a practical education.

Mr. Parks opened business, in Montreal, on Saturday, the 29th of October,
1864, and has been, successively, on St. Lawrence Main, St. James and,
finally, St. Catherine street, where the absence of factory-smoke favors good
and clear pictures.
He was the first artist, in Montreal, to retouch negatives, to enlarge pictures,
by the solar camera, and to make dry-plates.
To suit all occasions, he has forty lenses, ranging from microscopic size to
the "mammoth," which cost over $500 and a journey to New York.
At night, he turns on the electric Hght, and goes on photographing. He
takes nervous children, before they can move, and finishes pictures with
crayon, pastel, water-colors, or in oil.
For skill in grouping, his Methodist Conference is a masterpiece, which
presents scores of forms and faces in perfection.
Travelers buy many of Parks' photographic views of Montreal, the clear
ness of which is impossible to the climate of England.
As the first fire may destroy the negatives, of pictures covering a quarter
century, those interested should use diligence, in securing these pictorial
histories of Montreal.
The son who wishes to recall to mind his father's home, college or store,
and the landscape he admired, should ransack Mr. Parks' stock of stereoscopic,
and larger, views, in the taking of which he is the first of local artists.
His work is accredited by twenty-one first prizes.

Robert Forsyth, native of Caithness, Scotland, abandoned the position of
Harbor Engineer, at Montreal, in 1865, and began a business which, in
1893, has attained great importance.
As Scotch granites, the favorite stones for monuments, were too costly
for general use, he opened Canadian quarries of equally fine granite, and
erected works to saw and polish them.
These granites are adapted for monuments and ornamentation, as they
contain no discoloring matter and do not absorb moisture. Mr. Forsyth
imports all desirable foreign marbles, jasper and onyx, which make the finest
panelings. For sidewalks, floors, railway platforms, etc., Forsyth's " Improved Grano
lithic" is clean, cheap and durable.

THE PATOn MAMUFACTURING COMPANY,
SHERBROOKE, P.Q.
_y
This great corporation had its inception, in the year i856 in a private
adventure, under the style of A. Paton & Co., but, by the exertions of
George Stephen, Esquire (now Lord .Mount-Stephen), the late Hon. John
Henry Pope, Richard W. Heneker, Flsq., the late Benjamin Pomeroy, Esq.,
and the late Andrew Paton, Esq., who was long the Managing Director, it
was converted, in 1868, into a Joint-stock Company.
The mill soon afterwards had ten sets of machinery, which were increased,
in 1872, to twenty, and, subsequently, to twenty-two.
Within the past three years, a building 208 feet in length, by 57 feet in
breadth, and 4 storeys in height, affording forty-seven thousand square feet
of additional floor-room, has been aided, and is utilized for the manufac
ture of worsted goods.
The motive power is water; the lighting is by electricity ; and the healing
by steam, furnished by six large boilers, which, also, supply the dye-house.
266
Notwithstanding Sherbrooke's excellent fire brigade, and the fact that, in
nearly thirty years, no mill under Mr. Paton's management has caused the
Assurance Companies any loss, great precautions have been taken to pre
vent such a calamity, the works, being provided with automatic sprinklers,
from which the water is set free by a sufficient rise of temperature to fuse
caps, placed every ten feet throughout the buildings. There are, also, nume-
ous hydrants, in the mills and yards, supplied, by force-pumps, with water
from the Magog River, on which there are the B.A.L. Company's dam,
and storage dams, at Rock Forest and Little Magog. Moreover, the Paton
Manufacturing Company, and Messrs. Adam Lomas & Son have arranged
to afford mutual protection against fire.
The Company manufacture tweeds, military cloths, cloth for rubber over
shoes, worsted of all kinds, rugs, shawls, dress-goods, flannels and woolen
and worsted yarns, etc.
Slow as capitalists were to adventure their money in manufacturing, in
Sherbrooke, in 1866, since this company has attained eminent success, they
seldom miss an opportunity to acquire its stock.
The present officers ofthe Company are R. W. Heneker, President ; Lord
Mount-Stephen, Vice-president ; and E. Hargrave, Secretary.
The following is an extract from the Annual Report of the Montreal
Board of Trade.
"Mr. Andrew Paton, President of the Sherbrooke Board of Trade.
The death of this well known and highly esteemed gentleman, occurring
while he held the office of President of a Sister Board, the Council record
its esteem for his memory and its regret at his decease, in a resolution as
follows :
" Resolved, That the Council of the Montreal Board of Trade has
learned, with much regret, of the loss which the Sherbrooke Board of
Trade has sustained in the death of its President, Mr. Andrew Paton.
That Mr. Paton's long and honorable record, as an enterprising and suc
cessful business man, in various sections of this country, as an energetic
worker in the municipal affairs of the city of Sherbrooke, and as a private
citizen, won for him a general and widespread regard, especially in Mont
real, where he was so well and so favorably known, and that his death in
the prime of life is universally deplored.
That the Council of the Montreal Board of Trade hereby tenders to the
oflacers and members ofthe Sherbrooke Board of Trade its sympathy in
their loss, and, through that Board, its respectful condolences, in their be
reavement, to the widow and family of the late Mr. Paton."

This firm is one of the oldest, in its line, in Canada, and, from its in
ception, was one of the most enterprising, extending its business to the
nevver provinces, as they came into Confed;ration, and being among the
first to seize opportunities thus offered. They have recently sought foreign
business, sending one of their tr.ivelers to the British West India Islands ;
and, so encouraging have been their efforts in this direction, that their
representative made three voyages to ihose Islands during the year just
past, competing successfully with old connections, and securing a respect
able amount of business. Their make of goods has the highest reputation,
throughout the length and breadth ofthe Dominion, and their name stands
high for honorable and upright dealing.
The business was founded by the late Hollis Shorey, in i866.
He, some twelve years since, associated with himself his sons, S. O. Shorey
and Charles L. Shorey, who, being thoroughly practical, and knowing the
requirements of the trade, in their line, have continued the business
The family came to Montreal from the County of Stanstead, in the E.ist-
ern Townships.
It will encourage others to learn that, in his youth, the late Mr. Shorey
overcame seemingly insuperable difficulties. Early in his business career,
he was impoverished, by having to pay another's debts; but, confident that
he could repeat what he had already accomplished, he ultimately passed the
goal ofhis former hopes. Though the circumstances of his youth disfavored
large acquaintance with fiscal affairs, good reasoning powers, joined with
close observation and experience, made him one of the soundest political
economists among the broad-minded merchants of Canada's_ Metropolis ; and,
during the many years he was a member of the Council of the Board of
Trade, a dele^fation from that Body, to Government, was deemed incomplete,
without the presence of Hollis Shorey, Esq.
Owing to his enjoyment of the late Rt. Hon. Sir John A. Macdonald's
warm friendship, and to that eminent statesman's confidence in Mr. Shorey's
opinions regarding the Tariff, Insolvency Legislation and other Commercial
interests, his suggestions always engaged the respectful attention of the
Government, at Otiawa.

The George Bishop Engraving and Printing Co.,
CAPITAL, - S100,000.00
169 ST. JAMES STREET,
142 & 143 FORTIFICATION LANE. - MOntr<?al.
643 CRAIG STREET,

This flourishing business was organized by Mr. George Bishop (Managing
Director of the present Company), who began business, in November, 1867,
in the building then occupied by the old Herald company, on the present
site of the Standard Insurance building.
The lines which then received his special attention were general engraving
and the embellishment of note paper for private use, engraved invitations
and card work ; but, for a man of Mr. Bishop's enterprise, these lines did
not afford sufficient scope; therefore, he branched into a broader field,
catering to the needs of banks, commercial houses and larger corpora
tions, throughout the Dominion, steadily and surely developing a sound
and paying business, till the year 1887, when the present company was
formed. Since then, the business has made rapid strides, embracing new-
ideas, and adding auxiliary departments, till, at the present time, they have
one ofthe most complete lithographing and printing houses in the country,
having upwards of one hundred and twenty-five employees on their regular
pay list.
They occupy the premises extending from St. James to Craig St., connectedl
by a bridge over Fortification Lane, comprising, in all, some 25,000 feet of
floor space, equipped with the latest and best machinery, driven by electric
power. The premises are lighted, throughout, by electricity, and the whole
equipment of the concern is such that the Company are enabled to compete
with all comers, as regards quality of work, originahty of design and reason
ableness of price, in the following lines, viz :
Engraving and Lithographing, for all purposes ; Book, Job & Law
Printing ; Lithography, by photo processes ; Engraving, by photo pro -
cesses ; Book-binding, generally ; Relief-stamping ; Paper-ruling and Elec -
trotyping. General, commercial and fancy stationery, in stock.
The respective departments, being well organized, the Company are
enabled to get the best results, in the shortest possible time ; and, pride
themselves, on being able to turn out work quickly and, at the same time,
creditably. 18

A. A. AYER &, CO.,
.^^cporiers of ^tziier and Qheese,
This business is carried on by A. A. Ayer and John McKergow, and was
established in 1867, by Mr. Ayer. Frelighsburg, the centre of a dairy local
ity, was Mr. Ayer's birthplace. Hence, it was quite natural that, early in life,
his attention should be directed to making and handling dairy products,
and he has grown with the trade, from its very infancy, to its present
importance. Mr. McKergow is President of the Butter and Cheese Section of the
Board of Trade, and has been associated with Mr. Ayer almost from the
inception of the business.
That both buyers and sellers appreciate the way in which this firm s
business is conducted, is proved by the fact that, in 1891, they handled
300,000 boxes of Cheese, of which quantity they exported over 240,000
boxes; and, in 1892, they sold 329,562 boxes, of which they exported 264,-
976 boxes. A.D. 1887.

BISCUIT BAKERS

DRIED FRUITS
Cor. Albert and Vinet Sts., Ste. Cunegond<f,
ADJOINING MONTREAL.

This firm began in 1868, and, for a number of years, confined themselves
to the manufacture of Biscuits ; but thirteen years ago erected their present
premises, putting in the latest improved machinery ; and added the manufac
ture of Confectionery, for which they have, also, secured the latest appliances.
They make about one hundred different kinds of Biscuits and a very large
assortment of Candies. Their trade extends, chiefly, over both the provinces
of Quebec and Ontario ; and, notwithstanding the changes that have occurred
during their history, they have always been successful, in meeting and compet
ing with their new rivals. Their progress has been marked by steadiness, rather
than by spasmodical efforts. Their motto has always been strictly pure
goods a'ld upright dealings.
In addition to a large assortment of goodj of their own manufacture, they
keep in stock cake ornaments and other requisities for Confectioners, besides
being direct importers of nuts and dried fruits.

Canada, the universal Favorite

the history of British North America has

class newspapers of Canada.

1781 and 1783 Notre Dame Street,
Copnep St. Petep Stpeet,

^ONTHeAfe.

This well and favorably known house was founded in the year 1869.
Starting in a small way, the business has kept pace with the modern growth
of the city, and, at the present time, it is certainly one of the leading firms.
Perhaps the secret of its great success, apart from its strict adhesion to the
honorable principles of commerce, lies in its early adoption of the system of
buying and selling for cash. The advantages of this method are so patent
that even the ladies, who were formerly supposed to be altogether blind to
economical facts, are now thoroughly alive to its advantages. From the
standpoint of the moral philosopher, trade, so conducted, becomes an
educational and ameliorating agency in the social and domestic sphere,
and an incontestable argument in its favor is the existence of a firm
occupying the enviable position of John Murphy & Co.
Their Store is situated at the corner of Notre Dame and St. Peter Streets,
which, from time to time, they have been compelled to enlarge for their ever-
increasing business ; it has again proved too small, and looking to the
future they have now, in course of construction, a fine red sandstone
building, on St. Catherine Street (corner Metcalfe Street).
This elegant store will be three times as large as their present premises,
and, as St. Catherine Street is fast becoming the Broadway of Montreal, we
predict a much larger business for this enterprising firm.
When finished this magnificent building will be second to none in Canada,
it will have every modern improvement and two of the best elevators con
necting all of the six floors ; in fact, everything that will add to the com
fort and convenience of their customers will be done, with a lavish hand.
In addition to their headquarters in Montreal they have established another
store, at Ottawa, which is destined, in a few years, to rival the parent
business.

Alfred Waddington says : — " A Railway across British North America,
being the shortest, will command the majority of trade between Europe and
Japan. Considering that the distance to Sidney, from Vancouver Island, as
contrasted with the Panama Route, is as 7,200 to 8,200 ; that the distance
between Liverpool and Shanghai, by this route, will not exceed 10,400 miles,
being 4,000 miles less than by the Isthmus of Panami ; that the time, from
London to Hong-Kong, will be reduced to about 40 days ; and that English
trade to China, alone, amounts to ^^38,000, 000 stg. ; it is easy to foresee
what an amount of traffic will soon be running over this great highway of
Nations, with 700 millions of consumers, in Asia, — a traffic sufficient to employ
a fleet of first-class steamers, on either ocean."

The Malleable Iron Co'y. was established in 1873, in St. George street, near
Craig St., and was carried on, at that place, for over five years, after which the
Company bought the premises ofthe late W. P. Bartley. Since then, they
have been doing business there. Their principal production is the manu
facture of steam, and gas-pipe fitting, also, malleable castings for machinists
and other manufacturers.
This product is, from year to year, coming more and more into use,
taking the place of forgings, for carriage work, as well as other classes of
wares. It is also taking the place of ordinary castings, being made much
lighter and, at the same time, stronger and neater.

When this store was erected it was regarded as a triumph of architectural
design, realized in construction.
It was still more admired when filled with China, delf and other products
of old-world potteries ; but it remained for Mrs. Wright to compel univer
sal admiration, by presenting, in artistic harmony of colors, the finest
materials and the choicest shapes, in hats, bonnets, and other feminine appa
rel and decorations, imported from all the centres of style and fashion.
In undertaking a heavier rental than most wholesale stores support, Mrs.
Wright provoked not a few predictions of failure ; but time has proved that
the fashionable people of Montreal appreciate, and are delighted to patronize,
one who offers tasteful combinations of the best materials, at reasonable
prices.

The Journal of Commerce was founded in 1875, by M. S. Foley, who is
still the Proprietor and Chief Editor.
Decorum forbids to name the Financiers and Merchants who furnish to
this Journal the results of their business experience ; but there can be no
impropriety in mentioning that, among those who have contributed to its
past unparalleled success, was that distinguished authority on Finance, the
late Sir Francis Hincks, who, after attaining renown as Minister of
Finance and as Governor of a British Dependency, was Mr. Foley's
Associate-editor, from 1875, until his death, in 1885.
Some reasons why you should subscribe for, and advertise in, ihe Journal

WATERVILLE, '"^''::s:,°' CANADA.

In 1876, the late George Gale, Esq., saw a spring-bed, which suggested
one that would alleviate many diseases induced by mal-constructed beds.
Thenceforward, until nearly the time of his death, in 1892, Mr. Gale's
philantrophy urged his ingenuity to develop his idea, which culminated in
the " Dominion Wire Mattress."
To manufacture this, he abandoned the lumber business, and associated
with himself his sons A. H. and F. G. Gale, which firm opened a trade with
English makers of iron bedsteads, and established branches in Leeds, London
and Paris.
In 1882, the factory was removed from Smith's Mills to Waterville, P.Q.,
which, consequently, became a large village.
The business consumes, yearly, 1,000,000 feet of lumber, employs seventy-
five men, and supports several hundred people.
The mattresses are made from oil-tempered steel springs, warranted not
to sag.
The firm's specialty is protected by patents throughout the civiHzed
world. The firm took a first prize and medal at the Paris Exposition, in 1889;
but the best certificate is, that Canadian an 1 British Public Institutions use
this firm's combination Iron Bedsteads.
Cribs, hair and other mattresses are kept in stock.
Offices at Waterville, P.Q., Leeds, and London, England, and Paris,

Our Circulation and Advertising Departments are strictly worked on sound business
principles.
No Humbug ! No l^oasting !
We believe that every newspaper is a good advertising medium, and has readers of its own
that cannot be reached by other papers.

LA PRESSE,

LA PAT R IE,

Trr A "DXTTXTf^ f "WE HAVE NAMES AND PROOFS. Parties saying that
W XVXVXN XX\ KJ m "L'ETENDARD " has no circulation, is going to stop, or has stopped
its publication, are warned that we will, very reluctantly, take some legal proceedings to put a stop to such
libellous statements, and are advised to read the following :
OUR LAST CHALLENGE,
That has never heeu taken up, and is still open:
Montreal, gth November, 1891.
We have much pleasure in announcing that our circulation is larger than that of '* La Minerve " and
" La Patrie" and equal, at least, to that of " Le Monde."
This statement is made, not to depreciate or do any harm whatever to the papers mentioned, but in order
to let the public know the relative circulation of the French newspapers of Montreal.
If such statement be denied by " Le Monde," " La Patrie," or " La Minerve," we are ready to have our
books examined by expert accountants, provided said papers are willing to submit theirs at the same time,
and provided also that the result of such an examination, after having been sworn to, be published in all the
newspapers of Montreal, and sent to the advertising Agents of Canada, United States, and Europe, at the
expense of the one whose circulation proves to be, bona fide, the smallest.

Sabisfon Lithographic and Publishing Company.

-^ ^ ^
It may be news to many that the large brick block, at the corner of Craig
and St. Francois Xavier streets, Montreal, is the home of a Lithographic
and Publishing business that has, within the short space of four years^
developed from being, perhaps the smallest, to the largest and most progres
sive works, of the sort, in the Dominion. The Corporation spoken of is the
Sabiston Lithographic & Publishing Company.
Mr. A. Sabiston, the originator of the business, began, in a small way, as
general Hthographer, in 1887, and was working up an excellent business,
when, seven months later, the premises of the firm were completely destroyed
by fire, and a heavy financial loss was the result. Not daunted, however, he>
at once, recommenced business, and, with such success, that, within two
years, the firm had expanded into a joint-stock company. Since then, its
growth has been phenomenal. Not only has the Lithographing Department
developed to a remarkable degree, but other departments have been, from
time to time, added, all of which have made a steady advance since the in
ception. The four upper flats of the building are completely occupied by
the business of this Company, and even this large area is now felt to be
insufficient. In addition to the regular issue, Christmas Numbers have been
issued, as well as a number of specials, devoted to the various cities of
Canada. The Magazine, at present, is advancing rapidly into public favour,
and has attained a circulation never before reached by any purely Uterary
journal, in Canada.
The large Bindery, which occupies an entire flat of the establishment, is
another addition to the Company's business since its inception ; it is in
charge of one of the most experienced bookbinders in Canada, and the large
staff is kept steadily employed. No other outfit of machinery and appliances?
in the Dominion, is as modern and complete as that in the Sabiston Bindery.
Since undertaking the publication of the Dominion Illustrated, the Com
pany has introduced a most complete photo-engraving outfit, and can now
turn out hne and half-tone cuts, and, in fact, engraving blocks of all kinds
and of quality unexcelled in the Dominion, and in the shortest possible time.
The Lithographic department, proper (which is, of course, the main feature
of the business) has shown wonderful progress.
A large staff of artists of all classes are kept constantly employed in
making designs, sketches, etc., and every branch of the work is systemati
cally carried out. Large printing presses for colour work are unremittingly
busy, and the whole department is steadily progressing.

380
As a whole, the Sabiston Works, in their facilities for the special industries
to which they are devoted, can safely claim to be unequalled in all British
North America.

SHERBROOKE, Q.

Dudswell lime was known, early in the century, to take more sand, and to
yield smoother and more durable plaster, than any other obtainable. Bu t
though travelers envied residents of Dudswell their marble-like walls, there
was little trade in the lime, because, until the Quebec Central Railway was
constructed, the only means of transportation was by scows, down the River
St. Francis.
Including the large demand, from the United States, via the Maine Cen
tral Railway, there is a market for .about two thousand tons, per month ;
and $400,000 capital is invested in the business.
Being, scientifically, declared pure, Dudswell lime is indispensable, in
m.anufacturing paper and pulp, and in bleaching. Notwithstanding its supe
riority, in building, the lower price of inferior -material, produced about
Montreal and St. Hyacinthe, has excluded Dudswell lime from Montreal,
until certain proprietors have insisted on its use. If their example is fol
lowed, prejudice in favour of local products will crumble like the mortar
which is made from them.

" Now blessings light on him that first invented sleep," says Don
Quixotte; and blessings many and great on the inventor and introducer of
the BUTTERFIELD SPRING BED, which makes sleep quiet, con
stant and refreshing. Spring beds are generally made without any regard to
principle. Supporting the head and feet, they suspend the body in cramped,
unnatural positions, which, though constantly changing, afford no proper
rest, and the tired sufferer rises with a regret that he had not made his bed
on the floor, for, though hard, it would not have overtaxed every nerve in
his body.

The firm of J. B. Hutchins & Co., which began the manufacture and
importation of Ladies' and Children's Underwear, Bridal Trousseaux, &c.,
on St. Catherine Street, in 1889, found, to their cost, that trade was yet in
a transitory state and could not be depended upon in that locality. Mr.
Hutchins accordingly removed to another province, and the business fell
into other hands.

It has been said that the inventor of an article which must be used in
every household is certain to become wealthy ; and this is justified by the
experience ofthe late firm of E. & C. Gurney & Co., who, observing that
in this climate a good stove is a necessity of every family and that many
can afford the luxury of a number, devoted time, talents and money to
finding the best and most economical means of producing, distributing and
controlling heat, which all require ; and had such success that few well
regulated houses, hotels, colleges, churches or factories in Canada do
without one or more of Gurney and Company's stoves or furnaces.
Of a race who are distinguished for good and thorough workmanship

420
the brothers Gurney enjoyed the further advantage of being born in the
land of inventors. It is therefore not surprising that, at Edward Gurney's
death, in 1886 (see page 374), his mere personalty was sworn at $456,000,
and his brother, also, died a millionaire. (See below).
The business, begun fifty-two years ago (see page 150), was, in 1876,
extended to Montreal, where it started on St. James Street, on such a large
scale as to excite surprise ; but it soon required larger premises, and became
an exclusively wholesale business, on St. Paul Street.
In January last (1893) the business was taken over by the Gurney-
Massey Company (Limited), presided over, and managed, by Lieutenant
Colonel Frederic Massey, who, deeming himself entitled to retire, after
many years' military service (in the course of which he recently took charge
of the Canadian contestants in the rife tourney in England), resigned his
command to devote his attention, exclusively, to supervising the large
business, of which Montreal has become one of the principal distributing
points.

head with a kind heart. Mr. Loveil was born in the County of Cork, Ireland,
on the 4th of August, 1810, and came to Canada in 1820. In 1837, he
temporarily suspended business to defend the country against the rebels, and
proved himself a brave soldier as well as a good and useful citizen. Fortu
nately, Robert Loveil, who is the " son " in the famous publishing house
of John Loveil & Sou, jiossesses the ability and experience to continue
the usefulness of a business which has, for nearly sixty years, contributed
largely to the education of the inhabitants of Canada.

26th Oct., — The Revd. Edmund Botterell, an aged and highly respected
citizen of Montreal is killed by an electric car.
30th Oct., — Sir John Joseph Caldwell Abbott, K.C.M.G., late Prime
Minister of Canada, dies at Montreal, aged 72 years.

THE LATE SIR JOHN J. CALDWELL ABBOTT, K.C.M.G., EX-
PREMIER OF CANADA.
Theoretically the office of Prime Minister is a prize open to competition of
the entire male population of Canada ; but, as it has fallen to only four per
sons in a quarter of a century, many must be curious to know the conditions
which fitted the lately deceased statesman for the highest position in the
country. He was born on Monday, the 12th of March, 1821, at St. Andrews, of
which parish his father, the late Rev. Joseph Abbott, M. A. , was the first
Anglican incumbent. Being a profound scholar and an author of note, the
Reverend Mr. Abbott was peculiarly adapted to assist in educating his
gifted son, who repaid him by taking high rank at McGill College.
Having been admitted to the Bar in 1847, hs became a Queen's Counsel
in 1862, and, in 1867, Doctor of Civil Law. He was for years a Professor
of Law in McGill College, Dean of the Faculty of Law and one of the Gov
ernors ofthe Institution.
He refused a chief justiceship, possibly because the receipts of his office
were from five to eight times a judge's salary, but, being of a retiring nature,
he, perhaps, distrusted his fitness to sit in judgment, though he knew that
few could so convincingly present one side of a case.
He once advised a partner not to allow one case to engross his attention,
but daily to somewhat advance all his business. This suggestion indi
cated his own remarkable readiness in turning from one subject to another
without losing the thread of either, a faculty which enabled him to engage
in politics, railway enterprises and the command of a battalion on frontier
duty, without forfeiting the confidence of his clients.
Those who consulted him will remember with what a pleasant greeting he
suspended dictating to his amanuensis ; but comparatively few know how
easily he resumed, at the point of interruption, and how often this occurred.
His manner, at the Bar, was no less happy. Avoiding vain flights of
oratory, he, in a conversational tone, took court or jury into his confidence,
which; as he did not pervert facts, was reciprocal.
To serve a client's interests, he would turn night into day, unfortunately
without the compensation of rest when day returned ; so the wonder is not
that he survived threescore and ten by only two years, but that, in spite of
over-work, he reached the allotted term of well preserved old manhood.

435
A. D. 1893.— Continued.
No country has had a permanently satisfactory insolvent law, because of
the conflicting interests of creditors, who ought to be paid in full, and of
debtors who expect discharge because their estates have been taken from
them ; yet the late Sir John, deeming Lower Canada's saisie-arret to be half
an Insolvent Act, so ingeniously supplemented it, through the experience of
other countries, that he gave Canada an Act which had a long term of useful
ness, and, if (possibly) of abuse, it is remarkable that when Government
resolved upon a new Insolvency measure, they retained the Hon. Mr.
Abbott's assistance.
The late Sir John could the better use his deep knowledge of Commercial
Law in helping his clients, as he had mastered the principles of book
keeping and of commercial business.
Early in his practice he had for clients the Molsons, Allans, Merchants
Bank and Molsons Bank and, from its inception, the Canadian Pacific Rail
way, the solicitorship of which he resigned to take the rest that was soon
interrupted by the death of the Rt. Hon. Sir John A. Macdonald.
It then became evident that, while a number desired to be Premier, his
hand, though weakened by disease and advancing years, could best steady
the helm of State, and although he reached the Prime Ministership
without having manifested ambition for the position, and at a time when
he was unfitted for the cares of office, such were his resources and
adaptability that even his enemies do not charge him with one radical error.
The purity of his official life is evident, for his last will and testament
apparently disposes of a smaller sum than, in 1882, his well informed friend,
the late Sir Hugh Allan, declared him possessed of
The soundness of his opinions, his sincerity and faithfulness inspired such
respect that, in 1857, his old neighbors elected him to Parliament, and they
frequently repeated this, during a period of over thirty years, and when, in
the time of the Trent affair, war seemed imminent, they and their sons
volunteered to follow him as leader.
Beginning, like many notable Englishmen, as a Liberal, and ending as a
Conservative, he was called to be a member, first, of a Liberal Government
and, successively, member an d head of a Conservative Government.
In 1887, his fellow-citizens expressed their opinion by a majority of 2,000,
in a contest for the mayoralty, although his opponent was of the nation
ality of the majority. In 1888, his conduct had apparently converted the few
dissentients of 1887, for he was then elected by acclamation.
Capitalists, who are sensitive to their interests, elected him to the Direc
torship of the most important financial institutions, notably the Citizens'
Insurance Company, Merchants Bank, Bank of Montreal and Canadian
Pacific Railway.

A.D. 1893.— Continued.
Among recent testimonials, in the public press, occur these expressions : —
" As a man he was, in many respects, the most perfect I have met."
" He was polite and good-natured."
" Intercourse with him was always pleasant."
" Sir John will always be remembered as one of the cleverest lawyers
Montreal has had."
" In the defence of the St. Albans raiders, he proved himself of great
strength, and the peroration of his address will always be looked upon as a
gem." " He was probably the most successful lawyer of his time."
" As Mayor of Montreal, he undoubtedly was the best presiding officer
they ever had at the City Hall."
" As an opponent, I always found him loyal to the core."
" At a critical moment in the history of the Liberal-Conservative party
and Government of Canada, he nobly and patriotically assumed their
direction, and conducted the administration of our public affairs with credit
and distinction."
La Minerve says : — " He was a friend of our race."
La Patrie : — " With him there disappears one of the great men of the
Canadian Tory Party."
T\i&Star: — " When the great Sir John fell in the thickest of the fight,
the soldiery about him could unite, for the time, under no other leader than
J. J. C Abbott.
Lord Mount-Stephen and Sir Donald Smith engaged his presidency of the
Directors ofthe Royal Hospital, which cost them more than a million dollars.
In view of such unanimity of esteem, it is not surprising that, in 1892,
Her Majesty honored him with knighthood.
Hepeacefully died, at his home, on Monday, the 30th day of October, 1893.
His wife, daughter of the late very Reverend Dean Bethune, and four
sons and four daughters survive him.
His sons, John B. and Harry Abbott, Q.C, continue the legal business
their father began. William and Arthur Abbott are leading manufacturers,
and R. T. Heneker, one of Sir John's sons-in law, is solicitor of the Can
adian Pacific Railway.
That Sir John's smile and manner were no mask, is evident from his last
will and testament, which proves the astute diplomatist to have possessed
fine sensibilities and deep affection. Among hundreds who were present at
his funeral were Sir John Thompson, his successor as Premier, Sir William
Dawson, Chief Justice Sir Francis Johnson, Sir Charles Tupper, Hon. W. B.
Ives, Peter Redpath, John H. R. Molson, Andrew Allan, Hon. Judges
Baby, Tait, Hall, Wurtele, Mathieu, Taschereau, Gill, Jett6 and Davidson
the Hon. George Drummond, F. Wolferstan Thomas, R. B. Angus, Rich
ard White and many other distinguished persons. His Excellency the Gov
ernor General, whose Aides followed in the procession, was in the Cathedral,
attended by Lady Aberdeen.

31st Oct.,— -Peter Redpath, Esq., gives proof of his continued interest in
higher education, by presenting McGill College with a new Library building,
erected on land given by John H. R. Molson, Esq., and adds largely to the
library itself. In token of his gift, Mr. Redpath delivers to His Excellency,
the Earl of Aberdeen, Governor-General, a suitably inscribed golden key,
in the presence of a select company of distinguished citizens.
31st Oct., — His Excellency, Lord Aberdeen, presents McGill College
with a gold medal, for competition.
2nd Nov., — Burial of Sir John Abbott, whose remains are followed by
many hundreds of the leading people of Canada, including his successor as
Prime Minister.
2nd Nov., — The Antiquarian Society, presided over by Hon. Justice
Baby, presents Lady Aberdeen with numerous books relative to the history
of Canada, and of Montreal.

NAVIGATION.
The average date of first arrivals from sea for twenty years, up to 1892
(inclusive), was 2nd of May.
The removal of buoys from the channel between Montreal and Quebec
usually begins between 20th and 24th Nov., after which navigation is
dangerous. In 1893 the harbor of Montreal began clearing on the 21st of April,
and, before the close of the same day, the channel was clear of ice ; but owing
to the ice at Cap Rouge, [which left at 10 p.m., 2nd of May,] vessels from the
sea could not reach Montreal before the 3rd of May.
On the 5th of May, Lachine canal was open for navigation and the new
Welhngton bridge was swung.
The largest number of steamships in port, at Montreal, in 1893, was 40,
on the ist of August, one more than on the 12th of July, 1892.
The total number of vessels in port at Montreal, in 1893, up to 2nd
Nov., was 752 — 57 more than in 1892 to the same date.
The tonnage in 1893, to 2nd Nov., is 1,251,320, against 976,395 in 1892,
up to the same date.

ance of science. The building is erected within a lot of eighteen acres,
purchased by the founders for $90,000, to which other five acres, held under
long lease from the city, make a convenient addition.
The style of the structure is Scottish baronial, to which the limestone of
Montreal is well suited. The building, begun in iSgr, has employed 600
workmen and cost nearly $800,000. To construction, furnishing and main
tenance, the founders have devoted nearly $1,500,000, Designed by
H. Saxon Snell, an English architect of eminence, whose specialty is hospitals,
the structure combines, with peculiarities of its own, the best characteristics
of Mr. Sneli's previous efforts.

lency, the Governor General is informed that he is ex-officio a visitor of the
Institution, and will be always welcome.
Replying, His Excellency declares that, out of consideration for Sir
Donald Smith, whom he has with difficulty induced to attend*, he will substi
tute, for praise ofthe founders, congratulations of all concerned upon the
happy conclusion of this magnificent act of practical philanthropy and of
Christian benevolence.
He announces that R. B. Angus, Esq., successor of the late Sir John
Abbott as Chairman of the Board, has promised $25,000 towards the
support of the Institution, and hopes that the example will be followed in
¦sums large and small.

Not only are the physicians, surgeons and nurses elegantly housed, but even
the servants are to be envied their comfortable quarters.
A fine bust of Her Majesty, in prominent position, reminds visitors that
the inception of this admirable institution celebrates, in the name, and with
the approval, of Her Majesty, the soth anniversary of her coming to the
throne. Also, in imperishable stone, appear, with the coat-of-arms of the
founders, their mottoes, " lippen" (to risk or to chance) and "diligence," as
if to remind nurses and physicians upon how little life and health depend
and that they must not to be distracted, by luxurious surroundings, from

Sir Donald Alexander Smith, K.G.M.G., M.P., LLD.
If it be true that the life of any man would make an interesting story,
the biography of Sir Donald A. Smith, who in his boyhood turned his back
upon the luxuries of home to seek fortune in the wilds of British America
and, having succeeded, uses his wealth to alleviate the ills of his fellow-men,
has for Canadians an especial interest. Not to wish for better acquaint
ance with such a public benefactor would savor of ingratitude. But widely
as Sir Donald's public acts are known, his modesty precludes the giving
of more than a bare outline of his busy life.
This is the more to be regretted, as, in the absence of an authentic bio
graphy, even the time and place of his birth have been variously stated.
Sir Donald vk^as the son of the late Alexander Smith, of Archieston, Scot
land, and was born in the year 1820.
While still a youth, but after acquiring a good education, he entered the
service of the Hudson's Bay Company, carrying impressed upon his char-

446
acter, the word diligence, which, with the figure of a beaver gnawing a
tree, the stem of which is more than half cut through, is now engraved upon
his seal.
Industry and honesty paved his way upward, until he became the last
resident Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company, as a governing body, and
the trusted adviser of hundreds of the Company's employees and of their
families. He was Special Commissioner, during the first rebellion fomented in the
Red River Settlement, in 1869-70, by Louis Riel, and, for his valuable ser
vices, was thanked by the Governor General in Council. And it was for
these services he accepted the order of Knight Commander of St. George.
He was appointed a member of the Council which governed the North
west Territory in, and after, 1870.
He represented Winnipeg and St. Johns in the Manitoban Legislature of
187110 1884, and was elected M.P. for Selkirk, in the Canadian House
of Com,.nons, in 1871, 1872, 1874 and 1878.
In 1887 '''6 ^^s elected M.P. for Montreal west, over J. K. (now the
Hon. J. K.) Ward, undoubtedly the strongest Liberal in the Province. In
1891, he was re-elected, with a majority of thousands, and he still repres
ents the constituency.
He is Governor ofthe Hudson's Bay Company, a Director of the St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway, of the Great Northern Railway
of Minnesota and ofthe Canadian Pacific Railway.
He is, and has been, for some years President of the Bank of Montreal
and Chancellor of McGill University.
He is an Honorary LL.D. of the Universities of both Cambridge and
Yale, and was, by her Majesty the Queen, created a K.C.M.G., in 1886.
His Canadian places of residence are 1157 Dorchester street, Montreal
(where he has his famous gallery of paintings and his celebrated collection
of Japanese curiosities); " Silver Heights," Winnipeg, Manitoba ; and
^^ IVorway House," V\ciou, Nova Scotia. His London, England, address
is I Lime street, E.C, and Atheneum Club.
Unknown to Sir Donald, some of his many public benefactions have been
mentioned in these pages, and, donbtless, in the hundred and forty-two years
to which this Chronology relates, no other Canadian has been known to give
so much as he to alleviate misery and to promote science and the fine arts.
It is to be hoped that to forestall a fictitious biography and to set a use
ful Example, Sir Donald will soon permit the world to know how it has been
possible to accomplish so much good in so little time.
