Last November he returned from Ontario and was told that his property together with that of his neighbors was to be taken by the Government. He at once went to town and said to Mr. LePage, “my property is not for sale." He was taken to the Premier and told that they were very sorry but he would have to g0. He might stay during the winter but would have to move oil‘ in thr- spring.

Some of the men who lived east of the road w Dalvay went to town recently to see the Govern- ment about their property and were told that perhaps it. was not to be taken. despite the fact that

of May last that it had already been expropriated.

The speaker objected to the way _

tho Government went about the Park business. Aficr the survey- ing of boundaries W35 apparently completed nothing further was done for weeks and weeks. Finally on the 31st of May when the farmers had completed seeding they had a communication from the Provincial Government ln-i forming them that their land. ori a part of it as the case might be“ had been dccded to the Dominion ‘ Government.

One of the mcn who lived east of the road lo Drilvay and was in- cludcd in the group which was in- foi-incd that their land would pro-- bably not be taken had already: had his barn pulled down.

They had been informed that if they wished to move their build- ings they must do so before Nov-

ember of this year. Permission had been given to remove the buildings despite the fact that

the local authorities and deeded to the Dominion Government.

One man whom the speaker mcntioneci had been left with a. herd o" 16 head of cattle and i4 acres of cleared land. Another man had been left with three acres of clcared land.

Statute Vioiates Justice

"The essential feature of this

statute is that it. violates justice and is contrary to reason," Mr. W. E. Bentley. KC, said in the course of an explanation of the He had i

adie said he thought the principle involved in cutting the people ofl’ from the courts rather than the case of the individual person in- volved was the point of interest. He considered the Park of "no value to this part of the country."

1t was "outrageous that all!’ piece of legislation be allowed to remain on the statute books which took away the right of appeal to the courts," Mr. Malcolm McCal- lum of Btanhope, an associate of Mr. Ranicarb declared. He thought the Government "should be abso- lutely forced w repcal the legisla- tion and hand back our rights as citizens.”

Mrs. Alan Wyand of Cavendish told the meeting they were per- haps harder hit than most they iverq to lose their property‘ and their business which theyhad built up with hard iirork.

Mrs. M J. Doyle of Cavendish said “we arc descendants o.’ good old stock. English. Irish. Scot-ch and French and we cannot be co- erced“. In the course of her ad- dress she quoted from a report of a recent address by the Prime Minister of Canada, Rt. Hon. Mr. King, appealing for application 0i the arts of conciliation and co- operation in solving the broblclll-"r of this country.

Mr. D. L. Mathicson of Chm". inttetouin. the next speaker, told; that he had a two-fold interest ini his capacity as representing aper- son interested and in his right B5 i a citizen of the Province and a British subject.

"This is a matter not only for those caught in the tweezers but of every man and woman in the i Province because a fundamental,‘ iarinciple of British justice has‘ been violated." Mr. Mathieson said. From earliest time; it had been a l principle that in the case of two disputants the case must. be refer- i red to an independent tribunal.

Mr. Simpson and Mr. McNcill of Cavendsh were called on to speak, and briefly assured the meetingi their sympathies were with the previous speakers.
