COUNTESS ' OF MINTO One of Canada's Popular Vicereines. Rideau Hall, the simple, unimposing yet comfortable, official residence of the Governor-General of Canada is a two-story,, long, low, villa -like house, with its eighty-seven acres of ground, and was built in 1838 and bought by the Gov- .� ernment forty years later. It has been fortunate in its tenants,and one of the most popular of the vicereines who have dispensed gracious hospitality within its walls is Lady Minto, sister of Earl Grey.. The youngest daughter of the late General, the Honorable Charles. Grey, she was horn in 1858 and when twenty-five was married to Viscount Melgund who succeeded as fourth Earl of Itlinto in 1891, Her closo and affectionate re- lation to Canada dates from a time shortly, after her marriage, on her husband's appointment as Militiary Secretary'to the Marquis of Lansdowne, then the Gov- ernor-General,• little dreaming that within a few years he himself would occupy the exalted position of viceroy. In 1886 the Mentos returned to England, and twelve years later tante back to Ottawa as the representatives of Her Majesty Queen Victoria, itt Canada. . • - An excellent housekeeper, a wise and deented'iniatlier, arid a eharming hostess was Lady Minto. On corning to Rideau Hall she' had it transformed by a thorough re$13vating and re -decorating, and at such small expense that the department of public works expressed delightat the marvel. of results • for a ,minimum of cost. p he tradespeople protested against the careful marketing of the household; which n though ever ample, had no 'trace of the wasteful extravagance of other vieerc'at.. r. dimes. The Hoene-lifo art 'the Hall was simple, and the happy laughter of the LVO, children was never linked. The training of the young people was unlike that common in English families of rank; they were the close comrades of their parents, and in a free natural companionship were resent at all social affairs at Government House •except the formal functions of State. The public beeibvolence of Lady Minto centered ebiefly.in her splendid work for the Victorian Order of Nurses, and through her inspiratrbn and initiative numerous cottage hospitals have been established in 'sparsely. settled' districts where they were greatly needed, Her purse is ever open to works for the better= moat of humanity, and' her headSind hand Cosierate in her charities.
