WEDNESDAY Marshfield Women’s ‘Link. “w” °‘ ‘h’ Institute .. .‘.’.‘Z“:.'..‘.:.;“:.‘.fi:’;.-. great

Btafe-smen. the name of the Hon- orable Donald Ferguson occupies a prominent place. Donald Fergu- son was the son of John Ferguson, and his mother was Isobel Stewart descendents of thrifty S c o t e h Farmers who emigrated from Perth Shire. Scotland in 1807 and settled in Marslifield, Prince Edward Is- land. Donald Ferguson was born on March 7th, 1839. 9B vears ago. his education was obtained in Marshfield School and on the farm. H: was one of those who finds books in the running brooks, ser- mons ln stones and good in every- thing, for him all the world was a college and he took care to store away in his exceptionally retentive memory the lessons he received. While still a young man lie became prominent when he Wrote a series of letters in the press in favour of confederation. This brought replies from Hon David Laird, one of the Islands leading politlcaris and afterwards Lieutenant Governor of the North West Territories. Mr. Ferguson's ability as a writer and platform speaker was recognized. With great vigour he supported the interests of the strongly advocated railway oon- struction. At a. mass meeting of the electors held in Charlottetown in the winter of 187i, Mr Ferguson was the mover of the resolution which was adopted, in favour of the railway. and this was the be- ginning of the service we enjoy t0- day. Mr. Ferguson was appointed to the important position of col- lector of inland revenue in 1873, secretary of the railway ap- praisers. Three years later he was elected to the legislative, became Minister of Public Work and formed part of the Sullivan-Fergu- son Admlnstration.

Like that great Scotch Colonlzer, Lord Selkirk, Hon Mr. Ferguson possessed a. keen mind, a shrewd business sense, an aptitude for detail and an honest regard for labour. He was a delegate to 0t- tawa on several occasions, and with Hon M1‘. Sullivan presented at London, Engiand, the claims of the Island in regard to winter com- munlcations with the mainland. At the request of his party to enter Federal politics he resigned from Queens County against the Hon. small majority- In 1893 he was called to the Senate by the Gover- nor General ihe Earl of Derby and in. the following year entered the cabinet of Sir MacKenzie Bowell. He was also a valued member of the Sir Cliaries Tupper Govern- ment of 1896 and to Mr. Ferguson particularly the people of -ihe Is- land owe the credit of several marked improvements in trans- portation and other matters. After the defeat of the Tripper Govern- ment in the following election Senator Ferguson became one of the Chief Parliamentary critics on behalf of the opposition, and wa; recognized as one of the Senate's most able debaters, when Sir. Mac- Kenzie Bowell resigned from the leadership of the Conservative party the name of Senator Ferguson

gested as his successor, and there is reason to believe that ne would have been clioosen but for the fact that he himself suggested he was rather too advanced in years for a position that required physical health as well as mental ability. Senator Ferguson was an out- standing farmer and live-stock man and his beautiful home known as Tullock Farm was one of the beauty spots of the Island All his life a total abstainer and many an officer of temperance Societies, a men greatly respectd in his own community. Donald Ferguson with the ordinary advantage of a farm- er's son, without a college educa- tion, became a. leading farmer, a distinguished citizen, one re- cognized as a. leading apeakei-from the eastern to the western ex- tremities of the Dominion, one oi Casiadals great legislator. Member of the Senate of Canada, privy councillor of England. (Patriot Please Copy)
