The next Public Building to be

erected in Chaniottetown was a Manket`1-louse, suitable to the re- 'qulroments of that early period. A petitlvn of James Chalmers, to the Lieut. Governor in Council, dated 25th Qctober 1805, sets out:

:it your petitioner, during his

short residence in this town, has found that none of the inconven- iences attendant on an infant col- ony more generally lamented than the want oi’ a proper place of re- sort, for both buyers and sellers, of the common necessaries of life in .this town. '

That your petitioner therefore

humbly conceivcs that from the establishment of a Market House in a convenient situation and un- der proper regulations, many ad- vantages uiust result to the public at large. '

That your petitioner, at all

times ready to contribute his best endcav»;\'.i towards an accommoda- tion of :i nature so desirable, pro- poses to erect a House suitable |to the present exigencies of the community provided your Excell- ency may be pleased to approve of the same, and ordain such rc- ltrlctions as will enable your pe- titioner to carry`lt into effect."

This petition was granted, but

there is no further information rl- garding the undertaking '

was built on the - centre- of the Square on site now occupied by the Provincial Building, anti was afterwards removed to the ground where the Post Office now stands. -This building was fifty fect ln diameter, and formed a figure of sixteen sides. siirrunntfed by a colonade seven feet wide. The roof, which overliung the colonad-e, was supported hy sixteen large pillars and finished at the- top 'with ii. large cupola.

The question of better hotel

|ac<:oinmo<iations for the public has

int different times -been of consid- erable interest to many of the peo- `ple of Chanlottetown, and as early as the 5th of August, 1810 it seems to have _had an especial interest for Francis Garobbo, one of the public spirited citizens of that early day. in a petition to thc Governor in Council he says:

“That your petitioner having no-

ticed tlie inconveniences experienc- ed by thc public in general, but particularly by the gentlemen ob- liged to attend the sittings of thc General Asscm7hly_ of the want of a proper house of entertainment. in Charlottetown, affording suffic- ient accommodation for gentlemen and their families together with good stibling for their horses.

Your petitioner, patronlz-ed by

several persons of respectabiiiay, and hunibiy conceiving himself to be sufficiently capable of conduct- ing with propriety :in establish- ment of the ahovc nature, has pur- chased ground at a convenient sit- uation in -Charlottetown, being Lot. No. 60 fi.--st hundred, for the pur- pose of building a Tavern or Ho- tel with suiliabiie offices apprq- priatcd to thc above purposes, sole- ly to contain rooms of sufficient dimensions to conveniently accom- modate the most numerous societ- ies; to be called the "Freemasons Hotel, Italian Place."

Upon this petition the govern-

ment granted a loan of fifty pounds to Francis Garoibbo to assist him in his undertaking. In the con- struction of this hotel heevidcnt- ly mario considerable headway. for on the ‘_‘3rd of October of the same year he again petitioned the gov- ernment for additional aid and ask- ed that some gentleman -be appoint- e_d to icnpoct the place. as ii. guar- antee of the bona fides of his an plicatiou. This second request, however, was not granted by thc government,

The town lot on which this lio-

toi was erected is in the centre of the block which fmnts on King Street and is directly behind Notre Dame Academy.

This building had quite a his-

toric record. IHere, for more than forty years. people _ol all classes from town and country met-'twice a week to do business _ with each other and discuss the different topics of the day. On special oc- casions too it was a place for more than ordinary interest. ~in 1838 ai

celebration of the coronation of Queen Victoria. the Market House was throw open and all day Urged

paid two fuinds, fifteen shllllngsl and thirty four pounds or about.

A short sketch of the Provincial

Building that for the past seventy five years has occupied a com- manding site on the centre of Queen Square, Charlottetown, may be‘of interest at least to some of the. present -generation. The build- illl. which cost fifteen thousand pounds or about $48,000, is _one hundred and fifty feet long, /lixty feet wide and three stories high. It has u portico on each side and a wing on either side. Until Con- federutim it was called “The Colonial Building." A commission to erect the building -was appoint- ed in 1842 and plans and specifica- tions were atlopied, und the work of construction was at once coni- benced. The late leans: Sniltii was the Architect and inspector of the work.

On the ltlth, of May, 18431, the

imposing ceremony of laying the corner stone of the_(Tolonl:il iluild- ing took place. At tow o'clock ills Excellency Sir Henry Vere Hunt- ley, the Lieutenant- Governor in uniform and mounted, arrived with his suite. He was proceeded by tho St. John Lodge of Free Masons, and with the governor, was a pro- cession, consisting of the Chief Justice, the Building Coninilssion, Members of the Executive Council. the Speaker of the Assembly, Members of the llouse, Magistrates and other public officials.

The following coins wcre placed

in a gin:-s vial which was scaled and deposited in a cavity of the stone .ind covered by a plate of copper: A Sovereign, a Ilalf Crown, it Shilling, :i Sixpence. ii Folli- ponce. it Three pence, ii Two pcnco, u One i’Penny, at llalf Pcniiy and A Fzirthing, :ill of the reign of llcr Majesty Queen Victoria. A Royal Salute was fircd and I-iis Excel- icncy gave a short but appropriate speech. -

on the 26th. or June' 1s47. the first session of the Sovontccntlr General Assrenibly of Prince Eil- ward Island, was opened in the New Colonial Building and thc foi- owing June the Supreme Court be- gan its sitting there. _

For three quarters of a century

the Legislative Halls of this build- ig resoiinticd with the voices of the men who throughout that period nliiiiltluti the public destines of Prince Edward Island. Among, these were men oi’ the brilliant eloquence of Edward Whelan, Frederick D. Stl. Croix Brecken, \,ouls H. Davis and Robert Shaw; an‘fr»°.lie srong statesmandike type of Géoigu Coles, James -(‘. Pope, David Laird and Fredcritzk l’etei's.\

lt is a soirce of deep and lasting'

pride, not only to the citizens of. Charlottetown, `r,ut to the entire. Province, that it vas in this build-‘ ing the confeiiorafrria of the Provinces of iilanatla had its origin and that the first iuos-_ting of the Ftitliers oi' Ctinfeiicriitlon was ii

it may not bo out of place licro|

to say that tliosc who plunnod for' a bniltiiiig of the size und style of Government iioiise, and selected its location, iiiust have been rucii of strong fatltli :ind large- vision.; i When it ir rriiiciii-bercil that nine-|

ity years ago liiit ii small portioni of (iliarlottotown was settled, and that Victoria Park, now within such éasy reach, would at that time seem so far away, we must certainly say that they acted wisc- ly and biillded well.

In 1833 the Surveyor General

George Wright made it survey of Charottetown marking every -building in the town upon a plan ,und. acczirtiing to Wright's Survey.-, nit that period there were Jilin houses .ind one wharf in Cliariotto-_ town.

The first Steam Boat to parry

mails and passengers hctween this island an the Mainland was tho “I‘ocahoutas" that ran between Charlottetown and Picton. Sho made hai- first trip to Charlotte- town on the 15th, of May, 1832.

The Central Academy was erect-

ed on Kent Square, now known as the Prince of Wales College grounds, at the some time as the Government House was built, and under the management of the same Commission. The builders were James and Robert Donnell, and the cost of the building was `twelve hundred and ten pounds. lt was opeucrfln January, 1836.

This old Chapel had ibcen removed further west on Sydney Street, where for sc\'cr.il years is was used for a Sciiool House.

"Fairy Queen", a steamer running between iCharlottotown and 1'i<-tml carrying :nails and passengers was lost. There were thirteen puascn- KGFB anti a crow of thirteen -iii_~n on hoard. The Captain and crew took to the boats, but the pus- sengers were left on the sinking ship. Six of them who citing to it piece of wreck managed to reuch the shore. the other were lost.

~,At a public meeting lieid in Charlottetown strong resolutions were passed condemning the "base and inhuman conduct of the cap- tain and crew of the steamer who so treachcrously took away tho, two boats capable of containing all the passengers and crew when the steamer was in a sinking state.

The following is the first verse

of a poem written hy the into John Lollage on “The Loss of the Fairy Queen". and published in the first volume of "The Island 'Ministrel."
