Rains is cast as s. soft-spoken ra- dio personality‘. whose weekly alr-

Governor of the day. General Fan- ning. for the use of the Adiriiiri- istrator of the Government for the time being; Ind. in order to effect this purpose, a. grant of this land was made to Loni Dorchester (Sir Guy Carleton, then Governor of Lower Canada and Govemor Gen- oral of British North America).

"About one-half oi’ the farm is wilderness. A few years ago it was the site of a smallpox hospital. It was urged in 1793 as a reason foi- granting the land that such a pro- ceeding would tend to the im- provement of the locality. The like and other reasons now demand its reconvaysnce to the public. To re- store one-half the farm to the in- habitants of Charlottetown would be to afford them one of the mosh beautifully situated parks in the lower provinces. and supply a place of retreat from the dust and filth of the town. and the roads leading

into it, where in carriages. on horseback. or on foot, the people might enjoy the healthgivlng

breezes from the water. free from dust and annoyances of the public commercial thoroughfares."

Governor's Residence

The writer finds that General Panning. after consulting some of his friends. placed before His Mai- esty's Council on the 26th Febru- ary. i789. the matter of his handing over grounds for tho ‘residence of the Governor as same had not been previously provided. At a later meeting of the Council. held 2nd March of the same year. the Gov- ernor was unanimously advised that such a step would be expedient. General Fanning then by deed dat- ed 16th May. 1789. conveyed 100 acres of land “bounded northerly by Pasture Lots 1. 2. and 3. easterly by a sinall creek. and all other parts by the saltwater" to "Guy, Lord Dor- chester, Captain General and Gov- ernor-in-Chlef of the said Island of St. John. and the Captain General and Goverrior-ln-Chief of the said I-sland for the time being. and in his or their absence from the Is- land. to the Lieutenant Governor and Commiauder-in-Chlef of the said Island for the time being. for their use and accommodation re- spectively for ever."

In the first part of the deed it was stated that the land was then considered by some as useless in its waste and uncultured state. and even as a nuisance and obstruction lo the settlement. of the town. The deed was registered on 4th Novem- ber. 1793.

Park Committee

In the "Argos" of 10th June. i873. lt is noted that after long discus.» ion at the City Council meeting in the Council room of the Market llall on May 26th of that year (he following resolution, moved by Coun. Fletcher and seconded by Coun. Allen, was carried unanim- ously: "That the portion of Gov- ernment House Fanm secured tn the City by the recent delegation to Ottawa. be vested in the Corporat- ion of Charlottetown. and that a committee of five members of this Board be appointed to wait on the Government immediately in order lo carry out. this intention and lo make other necessary arrange- ments."

The following were appointed a committee for this purpose: Couns. ldetcher, Murphy. Kennedy. Currie and Stewart.

At this time the proposed park was not the only burning question before the public. Some wanted the Colonial Building moved off Queen square as it blocked Great George Street, through which citizens had had the undisputed right to go for nearly half a cen- tury. Its erection there .had caused depreciation of property On that street and business men had been compelled to move their places of business to another street where. it was claimed. the politicians of the day had greater interests. Then there was the great ques- tion of a water supply for the City from Winter River. which proposal was the cause of heated discussion and which was later shelved, The proposal to use the Holy Bible as a text book in the schools of the Island was also a hotly contested question.

A bill transferring about forty acres of Government Farm, west of the road from Brighton Road to Fcrl. Edward. to the City pass- ed the local Legislature on the 14th June. 1873. "for the sole pur- pose of a park. promenade and pleasure ground for the use of the citizens, the inhabitants of this Island and all Her Majesty: sub- Jccts." Buch things as circuses. shows or exhibitions of any kind are forbidden in the Act. The City Council was given power to make rules. regulations and hy-laws for the management and rqulatlon oi the park.

Heated Discussion

The “Argos" of 16th Juli‘. i879. reports a heated discussion of the City Council held on the 5th July, 1873. One of the Councillors pre- sented a bill of $30 for 1'2. dozen Cihampagne ordered by sOmc of the Councillors to help secure a ennooth passing through the Legislature of the transfer of Government Farm and the water legislation. This revelation crentcd qultc a furore and is said to have hail a decided effect at the next civic election.

In a document dated Govern- ment Ho-use. Ottawa. 19th June. 1114, and signed by W.A, Hims- worth. Clerk. Privy Council, it ls slated that on recommendation of the Hon. the Minister of Public Works. His Excellency the Gov- ernor General in Council had been pleased to order that the Government House nt Charlotte- town and its grounds and prem- ises. together with the farm st- tmehed and hold therewith, i» approvprlswd to the use of the Government and Legislature of the Province of Prince Edward Is- land.
