the citizens of Charlottetown yester-
day paid their last tribute. Laid to
rest in the Peoples Cemetery, the
remains of a veteran Jou.\'nal.iat were
interred with the honor and unspok-
en euiogy ot his friends in life. At
eleven o'clcck private services were
conducted at the home by Rev. R.
Moorhead Legate, B. D., pastor of Bt.
two o'clocir, conducted by Rev. Mr.
Iagatc and by Rev. Canon Malone.
of Bt. Petor‘s Cathedral
Mr. Isgste psid the following tri-
bute to the honored dead:
Another great Canadian has pass-
ed to his rest and his reward, and
will be deeply and sincerely mourn-
ed, not only within the Island Prov-
ince where his later work was done
and which was proud to count him
as one of her citizens. but far be-
yond; because his personality and
pen were so big and influential that
his sphere cannot be bounded by
geographical limits. .
I wish that someone who knew
him longer and batter than I were
here to speak his psnsgyric; and yet
I believe, from. what I did know of
him, that any fulsome eulogy spoken
over his bisr is the very last thing
which he himself would have desired.
Nevertheless it ,is .ri¢`iiuy1 _aww
hu memory tnatiwe-should here' rs-
call the very high and honourable
place to which he attained and which
he so well adorned in the great pro-
fession of fournallam, and the wide
and benericent influence which he
exerted by his high thinking and
_raceful writing. By the brethren of
his own calling he was known and
esteemed as the possessor in s high
degree of the qualities that go to
make a great Journalist; and the
reading public, no matter what their
politics, discerned in his work ii
purpose carried high. a spirit that
would not compromise where prin-
ciple was at stake, and a straight.
clean desire to advance tha true in-
terests oi the coniinunity for which
he wrote.
His capacity for good fellowship
and the charm of his conversational
powers will not soon he forgotten by
those who were admitted to the Priv-
ilege cl his society.
And the highest tribute be has
earned is to say that he lived and
died a Christian gentleman, cherish-
tha service the Dead March was
