D, of the Halifax Herald, Mr. Niekerson helieves George's Island, in Halifax Harbor, Is the | proper place for such a mohu ment, Nova Eeo visited by Halifax, seems veteran former Coast Glouces- Taunton, Interesting Reply Mr, Taunton declares the Norsemen not only landed at Prospect but lived there for some years, Ha would erect the monu- ment there and he has this to say to Mr, Nickerson: "I wonder how Mr, M arson got it into his head that (George's Island is the proper place to erect a monument to Leif Erickson, That Leif visited Nova Scotia one thousand years ago is an undisputed fact, But there is nothing to show that he landed on George's Island or any other part of Halifax Harbor, A former British Consul at Boston, in & book which he published last year, put in the claim that Eriek. son just 'touched' the shores of Nova Beotia and then proceeded to Cape Cod, where he sort of | 'established a residence.' The Shel burne Coastguard claims he land- ed near Sandy Point and states that others claim he landed some- where on Cape Island or in the vicinity of Tusket, As a matter of fact, there is abundant evidence that the Norsemen not only land- ed at what is. now Upper Pros- pect, but actually lived there, "Last year, in answer to the British Consul's contention that Cape Cod was the actual landing place of the Norsemen, a Halifax correspondent in a letter to the Boston Herald, gave the name of Rev, Fr, R F. Cragg, formerly parish priest at Prospect, now of Powell River, N.C,, as his aunthor- ity for the statement that he and others had discovered the actual landing place quite near to Pros- pect village and that thoro was every evidence that the Norsemen lived for some years on the spot which is now known as Upper Prospect, There is evidence 'of the fact that the environments of Prospect was covered with white spruce, To-day there is none, but occasionally ancient stumps are dug up, It is contended the Norse. men were partial to white spruce for the making of spars and oars for their boats, that they lived and carried on their business at that place until the supply of white spruce was exhausted, "The ancient landing, which Rev, Fr, Cragg claims that he and 'others discovered should be fair. ly good proof of the statement that the visitors of 1,000 years ago tarried long at Prospect, But H.

Another Reply Taunton again: "1 hope my friend did not take my remarks In a personal sense, offer harder work with less pay, "It 1s a faet which many must have observed that fn bad times a man's opportunity for employ ment is much less than a wo- man's.
