} HEREAS it has come to our noties that the Board of Commissioners managing the Provincial Agricultural and Industriai Exhibition for 1883, in Prince Edward Island have suggested that steps be at voce taken to secure, by application to the Lominiwn Government, a grant for the purpose of holding a Dominion Exhibition next year (1884) in Charlottetown, and we believe it to be advisable to support the above propotition by holding a Public Meeting. We, the undersigned, therefore request that you will cail a meeting of the inhabitants of Queen’s County (inviting the attendance thereat of the inhabitants also of King’s and Prince Counties), st an early day, in Char- lottetown, to take the above proposition into consideration. lated 7th December, A.
