East Sumner.

The death of Abel S. Heald, which
occurred at East Sumner on Nov. 18th,
removes another from the family of the
late Capt. Hiram Head. which originally
consisted of eleven children, eight of
whom were boys. Of this number three
sons and two daughters survive, viz.
Il. H. Head, Stephen e. Heald, Oscar
F. Heald, Mrs. Emogene Wiley and Mrs.
Alethea Weatherhead. OF the eight
sons, six served their country in the
civil war, and two, James and Frank,
fell martyrs to the cause. In respect
to loyalty to every good moral cause and
for a clean record of personal life and
uprightneSs of moral character, such
families are seldom found. Abel S.
Heald, like the other children, hated
Hypocrisy, deceit and meanness of every
form. He believed in square deal''
and practiced 1t.

my enjoyment. I have this year re-

the better that l noticed was that OF
the improved conditions of travel. The
boat in which we made the trip was
commodiOus and comfortable, luxurious
ly fitted with the latest Improvements
with the additional recommendation OF
good cuisine and attendance, a good sea-
boat, a genial commander and pleasant
and capable officers. We
ENJOYED THE TRIP IMMENSELY
and were fortunate enough to have as
fellow passenger, President Hays OF
the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad. We
had thus the chance to visit Prince

location for the terminus and the harboI

emit the photographic survey ia still in
complete and mariners enter for the
first time with natural caution but once
having made the entrance they say that
they would have no fear about entering
at any time. While We were there the
weather was very stormy with q nasty
sea running outside. Inside, however,
1t was perfectly calm, the position being
we'll protected from the prevailing
winds.
Certainly" continued Mr.. Bredt
''there is room there for great city and
Digly Island would make an ideal sub

would have to be by ferry think,
though the dividing passage Is narrow

between North Vancouver and Vancou-
