D. Monk, as u member of Parliament for Jacques Cartier. There were probably not half u dozen men in the House who knew that the resig- nation had been banded in, though the prccsriousness of Mr. Monk's health for over a year past, milking it entirely impossible for him to at- tend the sessions, was realized to he n condition which be was very likely himself to terminate. As recently as January Mr, Monk expected to be able to return und even went to the length of arranging his rooms at the Chateau laurier but p roleuse came and he has been confined tn bis rooms in Montreal ever since. llealiz- ing that he would for a second ses- sion be unable to look after his duties he has resigned his scat.

'i‘he details worried him, the mimi was buried beneath the weight of contracts und patron- age. The best qualities of the man fliil not find scope in the duties of a Cabinet pocition. The office broke his liuhlth and when differences of policy came in connection with the uuvnl question in 1912 it was prob- ubly with no regrets that he laid down his honors and became once again ii private member. He has still further withdrawn now into quiet private life. Mr. Monk'e retirement will mean a by-election in Jacques Cartier.
