In his early years he was a carpenter, and was em- ployed by John Malcolm, a prominent con- tractor. Later he entered the business of a contractor himself, and one of his first enter- prises, along with Hon. Alexander Macken- zie, was the erection of one of the martello towers that guard the entrance to the city. Many of the prominent buildings in the city were also constructed by him. About i850 he became the leading member of the firm controlling the Kingston foundry, and ever afterwards had an interest in the company. He saw the business increase until it was considered one of the best marine foundries in Ontario. In business Mr. Davidson was energetic, able. and, above all, conscientious. It is only within the past six months that his familial` face has been missed from the utiice of the foundry.

He remained conscious to the last, and as his voice failed his lips were seen to breathe a prayer. and a faint whisper told that those most dear to him on earth were the objects of his tender solicitude.

Moln- tvre, G dersleeve, McGuire, Muckleston, Hasty and Captain Gaskin, waited u n the minister of Justice, Hon. J. Sf D. `hemp. son yesterday, and _laid before him the ' scheme for the building of_ a dry dock by convict labour. `It was. mted out that a great many convicts had n removed from industrial pursuits. and that as the marine dock at the eastern end of Lake Ontario it was feasible to employ the convicts in its construction. They would not be placed in competition with free labour, but would rather be an aid to it, for the dock, when completed, would give employment to a large number of mechanics and labourers. The minister could not see anything objec- tionable in the proposal. If the ministry concluded that the dry dock .was a useful and needed institution in Kingston he thought from seventy-ve to one hundred convicts might be put to work u n it. The matter was then laid before Sir ector Lan- evin and he said the proposal appealed to im. However, as other places securing simi- bilties it might be necessa for Kingston to do the same. For instance ' the rent secured was inadequate to pay a proper percentage on the capital it might be necessary for the municipality to meet the deficiency. Such a contingency was a matter for future comi- deration. The deputation assured the minis- ter that no such diiiicnlty as he surmised would occur. If the scheme was judicio usl carried out, it would rent for enou ii to meet all expenses. Sir John Macdona d was called upon and he was already inform- ed about the matter. The only objection he saw as to the employment of convict labor, was that a cry might be raised against the government. However, if the deputation could show him that the peopie of this locality would not look at the matter nbjectionably he thought the scheme could be accomplished. Both conservatives and reformers upon the deputation informed the premier that the employment of the con- victs was not of a permanent character ; that without the overnment taking the matter up a dry doc could never be built in Kingston; that it would be the means of giving much work to mechanics and labor- ers hereafter ; and they were satised that the proposal would meet with the almost unanimous sanction of the citizens. They would give him evidence `upon that point at a later period. The minister of public works intimated that he would semi an en 'neer to report upon the matter, and he so said, when the deputation spoke to him about the slmuls, that the work of removing them would be begun on an extensive scale this hlllllllll`, we an un com. um onuomon unto the an. the b on can tho och.
