services with the Naval Brigade at
the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1.775.

expedition to the Spanish 'Alain un-
der the command of Nelson on board
H.M.S. "Hinchinbroke," and when
Nelson we, promoted to a larger
vessel Collingwood succeeded him.
'Henceforward the cureers of the two
great sailnes were closely connected,
and as Nelson gradutilly advanced Lo

played an important part in Lord

known as the Battle of the First of

the Channel Fleet. For three yenta
he kept watch on the movemewa;
the French and Spanish fleets and
then the signing of the Peace of Am-

a few months with his family.
In the sKing of 1808 he waa call-
ed back to Sea by a renewal of his

on active service until his dee'. and
seldom set. foot on shore. For twi

Home Rule
For Scotland
Scotland now demands to be made
selregoverning dominion, equal in
Status with the other dominions or
the empire. This we gather from 'the
monthly organ of the Scottish Home
'Rule A.ssociattion, advocating in Wu
sonian phrase, "self-determined:1i
for Scotland."
Incidentally it is pointed out that
while Britain's Cabinet has only twa
Scots out of '21 (the Earl of Balfour
end Si.e John Gilmour), Cantu:14'8
eabinet contains more of Scots than
of any other race, there being Mee;

Situated on the west side of the
city of London, close by Westmins-

the year 605 and 600, when the first
structure was starters by Sebert,

Later. a Benedictine monastety
was established on the site of the
present Abbey, but it is generally
conceded that Edward the Ccutfo --
sor was the real founder of the
church. He was croweed in Weat-
minster Abbey, Ile was every alter

cept Edward V., who died unerowns
Until the reign of George III., all
English kings and queens were in-
terred in the Abbey, but in later
years it has become more thud a
tomb. It accomodates British statee-
men. poets, warriors, Enlists and 111,”1

tion wished to honor. Like great
European churches, Westminster Ab-

growth; Henr3,1 III. started. the main
portion, and the western portions
were added between 1340 and 1483.
