NOTES
M
But, pardon the length of this let-
ter. I shall watch the movement
you are leading with interest. The
result cannot be very important here
as sleigh shafts that can be shifted
are little in vogue.
Sincerely yours.
J.E.B. McCREADY.
20th Feb., 1018.
Dear Mr. McCready:-
I am very glad indeed that
have writtenme in regard to
"rule of the road" matter, and
much interested in your letter. . But
I am bound to say that ll am not ab-
solutely convinced of the correctness
of all your facts. I feel sure that
there never was any change in the
-rule ol’ the road in Upper Canada,
and that it has always been to pass
to tlie right" may be as you say. May-
be too the example of Canada had
something to do with it. But, be
that as it may, he is a hundred
millions strong today, and his way is
the way also of seven-elghts of the
people of Canada. What, then, is
the good of the one-eighth holding out
against lt? Can the tall hope to
wag the dog Is it not better for
those small, but very lovely and very
precious Maritime Provinces oi' ours
lust simply mid with a good srnoe to
fall in with the rest
With klndest, regards io you and
Mrs. McCready,
Yours sincerely,
