411100211! WIN MCMURDO CUP-The Sluggers clinched the Town League championship Friday night on the school ’ ’ by winning their third straight vic- tory over the Eagles, 8-1. “Bifi" Howatt pitched a wonderful game and was only robbed of a. shut-out by “Pansy” Daley, who scored the Eagles lone marker in the 8th in- ning on a passed ball. Although the Eagles worked hard from start to finish they could not cope with the sensational brand of ball dished up by the Sluggers. At the conclusion of the game amid the cheers cf fans and players Dr. McMurdo pre- sented Manager Harris of the Slug- gers with the cup which he so kindly donated to the Town League. Thus concludes the most successful ball season that Summerside has enjoyed for a good many years, and it is the sincere hope of not only the players but also the many ball fans that next year will prove equally succe ui. The line-up was as followsz-Sluggers: Catcher, J. Schurman; pitcher, "Biff" Howatt; 1st base, W. Peters; 2nd base, D. Stewart; 3rd base, A. Wilson; short stop, H. Warren; left field, L.

In fact, it was the‘ custom, as it was the custom oi later years, for the British North American and West India squad- ron to summer at Halifax and win- ter in the West Indies, and I have it in black and white that while in the West Indies Horatio Nelson took unto himself a wife. Down in the little Island of Nevis, near St. Christopher's, there is a. little church called ‘The Fig ‘Tree Church.’ When Canadians visit that Island they seek out that church, especially on Sundays, and after the service the pastor will ask them l.‘ they would care to see Horatio Nelson's signature at one shilling per. ‘I. C. R.’ paid his shilling along with a lot of other Canadians and: the preacher pro- duced the marriage register and displayed Horatio Nelson's signat- ure. He married a widow Nesbit, perhaps none too readily, but he married her legally and formally, and she wasn't Lady Hamilton either. A tablet to the memory oi Dr. Neshit, his wife's first husband, is there on the wall and in the main aisle is a memorial slab to the memory of Alexander Hamil- ton, one oi the signers of the Dec-

That is all the proof I have to offer that Nelson was in Halifax for it stands to reason that if the fleet hem was attached to sailed up our harbor he was on board one 0i the ships. Unless, perhaps, he did not want to come in and and they placed him on the outer automatic or what- ever buoy was there at the time. and left him there till they picked him up a few months or weeks later. Of course it is understood that at the time Nelson is pre- sumed to have been on this station he was not ‘Lord’ Nelson, but a middy or a sub-lieutenant andi at

shipmates called him ‘Roch’ or‘

some appropriate nickname. The British navy from its very begin- ning always had lads, sons of tit- led parents, among the compliment of petty, officers, but they never
