Dave Lidstone called us up to tell us it was 41. He was a kid at the time (1924) t old enough to be interested in hock@y. We received letters from John (Wes) Nicholson, tonsorial artist from Charlotie- town, and F. C, Bowness, also of the capital city. These men also gave the score as 41, 80 that about settles it.
