A typical fishing harbour of Nova Scotia is shown in the upper picture. Lunenburg boats have ways been foremost among the fishing fleets and in the foreground can be seen schooners in various stages of con- struction, while anchored in the back- ground are a number of the Filipe waiting. to leave for the banks. 'At the bottom is a scene reminiscent of the old world, but one not unusual in the Nova Scotia fishing towns. It shows an ox team bringing a catch of cod fish from a schooner upon itsarrivalin port. following was the inscription--"In memory of Pierre du Gaust; | Sieur de Monts, and Samuel de Champlain, who sailed from France to make the first real attempt at colonization in Acadia. made the first landing in Liverpool on May 12, 1604." Students of history well know the rivalry between France and England, and this little extract from "The Land of Evange- line gives an interesting sidelight on the history of Nova Scotia: "Great Britain's first effort at colonization was made in 1622, when, conceiving that she had some claim on the country through prior discoery, her King, James of England, VI of Scotland, granted Acadia to Sir William Alexander, a gentleman of his court, the name Novae Scotiae used in the document conveying the grant was the suggestion of Sir William, who said to the King, "There is a new France and a new England, let us have a new Scotland." In this document, too, lies the origin of Nova Scotia as a province, : Sir William Alexander dreamed of a feudal state, with him- self as Lieutenant General, and for the purposee of taking posses- sion of his lands after a feudal fashion, Nova Scotia was made a part of the County of Edinburgh, and he entered upon the owner- ship of his barony with accustomed ceremonial at Edinburgh Castle. An interesting growth of ghat undertaking was the creation of the Baronets of Nova Scotia, a Scotish order of knighthood be- stowed upon each of the gentlemen who subscribed 3000 marks to- wards the exploration and colonization 6f the new land. In all, the order was conferred upon a hundred and forty persons. Each creation up to 1638 carried with it a barony of four by-six miles in Nova Scotia. The order was not wholly bestowed upon court favorites. All parts of Setland and Scottish life were reflected in the roll of honor. Though the baronets raised a total of 480,000 marks (about £26,000) the expeditions they sent out were unsue- cessful, and the cession of the town of Port Royal back to France in 1632 brought the enterprise to an end. 'Now in the hands of the English, then back to the French, the political state of the country was unsettled till 1710, when it was finally reclaimed for Great Britain by the officers and troops of New England." : There are many such passages as this in Nova Scotia history. Finally we reached Yarmouth, and saw the big boat leaving for Boston. Toronto and Ottawa are far away, Boston is near. The failure of the reciprocity treaty may or may not have been a good thing for Canada. Just now we do not feel a bit like reci- procity ; but it is easy to see that closer trade relations with the United States would have béen very welcofne in Nova Scotia. As. it is the customs officers are verv busy and not over welcome among among the passengers on the train going te Yarmouth. These officers seem to have the right to ask all manner of ques- tions, and should be familiar with the family history of hundreds of travellers. Yarmouth has a population of 7000. Its houses are sub- stantially built. Some of these homes are quite iniposing, and one or two of the properties were estates something like those seen at Cobourg. TRe business section is not" impressive; but it is likely that they are doing better in unpretentious quarters than some more showy places of business. The sidewalks are of asphalt, and the frost has roughened the surface until. the poorer of the walks are like gravel paths. Of the life and ambitions of such a people, the traveller knows nothing. Here as elsewhere, life has its tragedies, comedies, and romances. How could it be otherwise when the book says-- Yarmouth men were bold sailors, their keels swift. Her captains, after plucking the flower of 'adventure in strange lands, and gathering abundant gold into their capacious pockets, turned home, and settled down." They have settled down to trade in fish, lumber, and seaweed, and to produce cotton duck for the making of smocks and overalls for | the workers of Canada, Telling a story in chronological or geographical order is not an easy Pask. There is always something: turning up to lure you from the path of duty, and there are always items of interest that { did not seem to fit in at the right place chronologically. This | story is just the same, overlooked pictures, that are worth pre- | serving, are forgotten. hg : One of these pictures is that of a wooden church in Halifax, which was built in 1749 by King George II. It is known as St. | Pauls, and is an Anglican church. Among the presentations made | to the church by King George 11 was a silver communion service made by the silversmiths of Queen Anne in 1712. With character- istic modesty, the king had his own initial engraved on the plates instead of that of Queen Anne. In fact he had the godd Queen's initials removed in order that his own might appear. Now it reads "G. R." instead of "A. R.". The set consists of chalices, heavy silver plates for the bread, and a flagon fo rthe wine. All aré very heavy solid silver. This set is kept in a great safe, and near by is a treasure chest captured from a Spanish galleon. Theybuilt this church with a special pew for Royalty, and in 1919 the Prince of Wales occupied the Royal pew. We saw the pew and the Prince's signature. We also placed our own signa- tures in the visitors' book, which is likely as close as we shall get to Royalty. There were also special pews for General Wolfe and Lord Nelson. Under the church there is a charming collection of bones be- longing to the heroes of the past.A funeral in the old days was a spooky sort of affair, for they had to rgise part of the floor, and lower the coffin through the hole. Then a torch light procession conducted the remains to their last resting place, as nearly as pos- sible directly under the tablet which records the virtues of the departed. Once they buried a General with all his jewels (by They who knew that dead men tell no tales, went down into the gloom, gathered the jewels, and departed without informing the police. To-day he would likely stub his toe, for the way is not so clear as it used to be on account of certain pipes and wires that civilization has introduced.
