D1-:An SIR : The announcement of our approaching departure has been eceived by ue with feelings of he deepest regret. It is in- eed an event as unexpected as unwel- come.

Guests.

The banquet in honor of Major W'eek.=, Corporal Brown and the other men return- ing from South Africa who were not be- fore banqueted took place last night at the Queen Hotel. The banqueting hall was lavishaly decorated with flags of various kinds and there was feas ting, toasting music and song and possibly no imilar event has ever passed oil' more leasantly. Lieut.-Col. Moore, D. 0. C. resided and on hisright sat Major Weeks and Corporal Brown while on the left was Premier Farquharson. The vice chair was occupied by Surgeon Major \Va.rburton.

At 10.30 the feasting ended ani the

chairman proposed the toast to “The King.” Prof. \Vatts played the accom- pxnied for the national anthem and the toast list proper began.

Col. Moore read letters regretting

absence from Attorney General Peters and Mr. John F. \Vhear. He also regretted the absence of the Lieut.- Governor, who was unavoidably detained, after which he proposed the toast of the Lieut. Governor which was replied to hy Mr. F. de St. C. Brecken in eloquent language, which was frequently punctuat- ed by applause.

The vice-chairman then proposed the

toast to the Local tiovernmen-t,-responded to by Premier Farquharson and Mr. Geo; E. Hughes. _gg

The toast to the City and C01‘P0l!B_tlon, proposed hy thechairman, was responded- to hy Mayor Warburtoti.

Mr. March of St-_ John enlivened the

proceeding, with nn excellent recitation after which the chairman proposed the most important; toast of_ the evening, “Major \Veeks and the members of thc South African Contingent."

The Colonel-in proposing the toast paid

a high tribute to the worth ofthe person- nel of the Contingent who went forth to do battle for the Empire and to bring hon- or upon Canada and the province to which they belonged.

Major \>Veeks on rising was greeted

with prolonged applause. He said he could hardly find words to express his gratitude for the kind man- ner in which hennd Corporal Brown had been received on the 'occasion of their return to their native province. ‘The reception of Saturday and the event of this evening certainly indicated that
