A large meeting of the residents of Lot 4 and 7 was held at Campbelton on Mon- day, April 7th, Mr. Peter Doyle in the chair, and N. 8S. J. Murray secretary. The obiect of the meeting was to consider the exhibition question and petition Parliament to hold the Prince County Fair every other year at Messrs: J. McCarthy, James Gorman, John McDougall, James Dalton and Rev. A E. Burke, and the following resolution, moved by Mr. John Doyle, and seconded by Mr. Daniel O'Sullivan, was unanimously carried. Whereas, The people of western Prince County derive no benefit whatever from the County Exhibitions as now held at Summer- side, owing to the great distance over which they would be trave! to attend them, and the heavy expenses necessitated, And Whereas, These money grauts for Ex- hibitions are made for the whole County, and to encourage farmers and stock raisers to bet- ter efforts, And Whereas, This part of the County re- quires, perhaps more sothan any other, all the encouragement possible on account of the backward condition of agriculture, etc., be it Therefore Resolved, That we hereby call upon the overnment tu consider our interests by causing to be held in Alberton every other year the County Fair, and by disposing there of our just share of Stock Farm animals.
