Christie, owing to delay in the train. the Vice President, Adjutant Stevens presided. Matters pertain- ing to the lord's Day observance, evangelism and temperance occu- pied the time largely.

It has been recommended that per- sons (male and female) from l5 years and upwards align the peti- tion.

Her many friends learned with regret that Miss Tattle Mawley is leaving Summeraide to take up her residence in Charlottetown at the Charlotte Ladies Home.

Miss Mawley has been associated with the business and social life of Summerside for many years. Her father and mother, the late Edwin and Sarah Mawley opened the Clifton House, which was built by a. Mr. Campbell in the early days of Summerside. ‘This hotel remained in the hands or the Maw- ley family, until quite recently. Mr. M. P. Titus is the present propri- etor. The Clifton House has always been associated with the commer- cial and social life of Summerside. Under the management of the Mawleys it was known to the trav- elling public as one of tile nicest family hotels in the Maritime Prov- inces. On the occasion of the visits of the Governor Generals of Canada to Bummersidc the Clif- ton House was the scene of many brilliant functions and many noted and distinguished people have slept beneath its roof.

The Mawleys were an old Eng- lish family and resided in Char- lottetown before coming to Sum- merside. On the death of their parents, Miss Georgie, now de- ceased and Miss Tottie carried on the Clifton House and their two sisters, Janie and Carrie ran the Mawley House. which is now under the management of Mrs. Bruce Davidson.

A photograph of the portrait of His Excellency, Sir Charles Augus- tus Fitzroy, Lieutenant-Governor of the colony of Prince Edward Is- land, 1837-1841, has been taken nad hung in its proper setting be- tween his predecessor and success- or in the Confederation Chamber. The portrait, e. mezzo-tint‘ en- gravlng, which was received a few months ago, also hangs in the Con- federation Chamber. It is the gift of the Rt. Hon. E. A. Fitzroy. Speaker of the House of Commons, Westminster, and pletes tho array of the Provinces twenty-six governors from 1770 until the present, save one.

The discovery of tho portrait ended a search over a period of years and today Mr- l-I. R. Stewart, Deputy Provincial Secretary- Trcasurer and Archivist, has reu- on for the satisfaction he feels in its acquisition. Unearthing por- traits of the great in Prince "Ed- ward Islandb past and the discov- ery of interesting relics to add to the collection in the Confederation Chamber has been his joy since taking over the office.

‘trains on Prince Edward Island experienced more difficulty with snow yesterday than they have at any previous time this winter. The heavy ground drift Sunday and Sunday night filled all the cuttings and the high wind packed the snow hard making it exceedingly difficult for snow plows to operate. V

The train from Tlgnish, which did not arrive in Charlottetown un- til 7.30 p. m., over six hours late, was stalled for some time at De- Blois, and found the track very heavy from Tignish to O'Leary. The Summerside train arrived in the city on time. On the Murray Har- bor line the truck between Lake Verde and Charlottetown was vely heavy, the train being stalled for four hours in a heavy drift at Bun- bury, and for about an hour and a half near Hazelbrook. The Murray Harbor train arrived in the city at 6.45 last evening and left on return at 8.00 p. m,

The Georgetown train arrived at 2.15, over two and one half houm late. It was stalled for an hour at Roseneath on the Montague branch. The Souris train, which was stuck for three and one half hours in a drift just east o! Mt. Stewart. ar- rived ln the city at 4J5, five hours late. Last night ‘Tignish reported a heavy drift. so it is expected that there will be trouble with snow on that line again today. The train from the mainland arrived in Char- lottetown at 8.30 last evening, most o! the delay being caused by late connections on the mainland. ‘The car ferry made the’ crossing in an hour and twenty minutes.
