COVEHEAD

Appropriate and Successiul Celebration ol the Anniversary ol the Coming oi First Presbyte- rian Minister to That Congregation-Large Attendance and Attractive Program.

__,_.__._--1-°'1*ii'-*

The manner in which the centenary of the arrival of the first Presbyterian minis- ter In Prince Edward Island was celebrat-_ ed at Covehead yesterday was most creditable to all vsho were in any way connected with the function. It will be one hundred years ago, this autumn, since the Rev. Peter Gordon was placed in charge of the congregations of St. Peters, Covehead and Fortune. Yesterday those who comprise the people of' those congregations, many cf litem descendants uf Mr. Gordotrs parish- ,, loncrs united to honor the memory of him f who was the iirst to teach their faith on Prince Edward Island. The attendance was large, those who attended being drawn to the scene through an earnest ,desire to show their interest in the occasion, and the splen- nidlynrrangcd and appropriate program was thoroughly appreciated by all. A number of eloquent addresses were made and valuable historical data was furnished by the speakers of the day wh acquitted themselves with distinctlo and were listened to with the kneencst interest. ’ His Honor Lieut Governor MacKinnon, presided and delivered the opening address in the morning. He contrasted the presentcondltlan of Prince Edward Island with what it was a hundred years ago. The present was a time oi great prosperity on the Island and he adviycti young men to stayin this good country which had plenty of splendid resources wh ich only needed full development. A prominent feature of the day was the unveiling of tablets to the memory of iievs. Peter Gordon, Robert Douglas and James Allan, formerly pastors of Cove- head Church. One of the tablets was unveiled by Dr.

Gordon; that to Rev. Mr. Douglas was un- veiled hy Rev. Dr. Falconer; and the tablet to Rev. Mr. Allan was unveiled by Lieul. Governor McKinnon. Those who delivered addresses included Ras George Miller of Brookfield, Rev W, H. Spencer, Rev. T. F. Fullerton, Rev Dr Falconer, Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly, Lieutenant (iovenor liIcKinnon,James Mcii. Baxter. M. D. of Chatham, N. B agrandson of Rev. Peter Gordon, and others.

The visits and labors of Rev. Dr.McGrcg- or a Presbyterian missionary who visited Prince E iward Island at intervals during the early days of the last century fcrunnl the basis of an excellent, and eloquent eulogy bylbis great grandson, Rev.Geor, e Millar. Those who have read the mem- ories of thc grand man who formed the subject of Mr. Millar's address will not need to be told that his words were listened to with plca~u re and that his topic was one deserving of the beat cratory. Many interesting incidents were recorded of the early missionary travels, and the condition of this province at that early day was graphically des- cribed. The theme of the Rev. W. H. Spenocr's

discourse was Rev. Peter Gordon, his sac- eessors, and the elders for 100 years inthe

Covehead congregation, and needless to sad the subject received elaborate and thorough treatment at the hands of the speaker. He recited all the in- cidents of the career of the ilrst postorand his successors and entwlncd in his address the history of many ui the early settlers, and recited many events of interest: Short accounts of all the pastors were given from the beginning of the con- gregation down to the present day.

The following ministers have had char-

ge of the parish since it was made a con- gregation: ~

Rev. Pctcr Gordon, 1800 to 1807.

Rev. Edward Pidgeon, 100'( to 1820. Rev. Robert, Douglass, 1821 to 1843.

was inducted October lst, 1000. The present list of elders consists of; James G. McCallum. David H. Auld, George Mnthieson, Alex McCallum, Ralph Carr.

Follovl ing Mr. Spenccr'| address came a

masteriy treatment by Rev. Dr. Falconer, Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly, of Prcsbyneritiulsm in Canada. Nccrlics.~'. to say this important subject was properly dealt with by the learned doctor.

Dr. Baxtcfs speech was entitled Then

and Now, and in its scope compared the advanccmnnt that has been made in ln- vcntion and science in the past 100 years, rcferring particularly to the great im- provements in electricity and the changes wrought in the customs of the people.

Rev. Mr. Dobson conveyed the -greet-

ings of the Methodist Church of Prince Edward in @ . gentle man spoke brieily but well.

Rcv. Mr. Woodroofe and Rev. Mr. White

were unblc to be present.

The morning‘s program was concluded

by singing the Doxology. ‘

In the afternoon a pleasant time was

spent on the grounds adjoining the church, where meals wareserved in dainty style by thc ladies. Therewas an attend- ance far exceeding all expectation; it was estimated that- there were 1500 people on the grounds. The results financially were such as to give the utmost satisfaot~

Incidents in thc Grounding of the Battleship Dominion

_1_____ »

llIc.\"rn1-;.\l., August 21-Details of the

accident to il. M. Dominion vvhilc on her way from Ilallfax have been divulged. It was about 8,30 Thursday last that the llominion stranded off Souris, Prince Edward Island. The navigating officer mistook thcllght which proved to have been caused by a bush fire for one of thc Souris rangellghts. The ship struck two obstacles, over which silo passed and grounded on the third. The shocks were so heavy that Mrs. Kingstnlll, the cay- tain’s wife, whobad boarded the ship nt Halifax, was prustrated and had to be attended by the ship's doctor.

The captain immediately tool: the

precaution of piping all hands on deck, the men with heavy bags con taining their kits. For double pur- pose of avoiding a panic and of a.~~ sisting thc ship oil`, the Domlnionk band was ordered to playa a jig and all hands danced to it the effect being to jig the vessel off thc rock with the assistance of her engines. As some of the fore compartments were making water thc ship'a pump> were at once set nt work,nnd it was found that even when ilonwd they were able to keep well ahead ofthe leakage, which it is reported is at the rate uf 60,000 gallons an hour. An attempt was made to send down divers, but this was found to be lm- `possibie, owlng to the tide. Most of the provisions on board wercidestroyed by salt. water, and canned goods were served out until the shipi-4 arrival here.

Nothing was reported of the disaster

until the ntimiraity was notified and the ofllcers and men were alike instrucierl not to talk of the affair at Quebec. When tho vessel arrived aboutdusk ,_on Sunday night, llarbor Master 0’Sullivan boarded ,her to point out her aucorage ground. facing the terrace. The captain said that asit was prctty dark he would run the ship np above the city until next day, and then bring her to an- chorage. Nothing was reported of the accident, but the ship anchored fer the night on a comparatively shallow part of the river. known aethe ballast gi-ound,opposits Coveltelds, when the tide is lighter, sud where divers were sont. down.
