The return trip by the same elegant
train brought the party to West ~.
William, flve miles from the mouth OF 4
the great kaministiquia river. Here
a steamer Was boarded and the com
mittees representing the Board OF
Trade and town council Of TT. Will
liam, headed by Mayor +. s. Rut-
ledge, j. X. Lumby, vice-president OF
the Board of Trade, and Patrick Man
ion, took direct charge. The Kami-
nistiquia river is wonderful natural
harbor and even at this point was ac-
cessible to steamers drawing % feet
of water. The terminals of the Cana
dian Pacific are at Fl. William, and
the Grand Trunk will soon be there
with 600 acres of terminals. AS the
steamer proceeded down the river to
the mouth emptying into Lake SUI
perior, the many interesting signs of
prosperity and bright future for
TT. William were easily apparent.
A wonderful sight on this trip was
Mt. Mckay, some four miles distant,
rising nearly 1900 feet into the clear
air and bearing on its top lake
nine miles in length and nearly four
in width. Nesting on it's brow could
be seen the quaint chapel where the
Indians on their annual pilgrimage
gather for divine worship. A swing
out towards the harbor, and then
the delightful afternoon ended at the
side of the "Huronic." .,,....r..'
