Aunique record of Canadian rail-
way pioneer engineers is emb odied
in a photograph taken in Vancouver
recently y of three prominent members
of the profession whose record for con-
tinued service in the survey and con-
struction of railways is possibly
without parallel. They are—reading
from left to right, H. J. Cambie,
M.) .I.C„hi White,
years of age;
T. H.
W t M.E.I.C.,
ears of age;
and:J
y g , H. Kennedy,
M.E.I.C., seventy-two years of age,
They are all resident in Vancouver.
Each has been identified with one
of the three great, transcontinental
railroads now operating in British
Columbia, as chief engineer on the
location and construction of the
original main lines within the Prov-
ince, pioneered through the wilder-
ness of mountains, canyons, forests
and plains by feats of • engineering
skill and perseverance riot surpassed
and scarcely equalled in any other
part of the world. Each one isen-
joying excellent health, and occupies.
the very highest place in the respect
and esteem of the members of the
engineering profession together with
the general public. Another ':very
interesting eoincidence lies in the
fact that each one possesses.the appa-
rently magic name "Relay".
Henry John Canibie,
was born on 0etober 25th, 1836, in
County Tipperary, Ireland. He had
charge of the location of the present
main line of the Canadian Pacific
Railway from the Coast to Griffin
take, and was chief engineer of the
world-famous construction through
the Fraser Canyon from Yale to
Lytton, and also the Construction of
the :section from Savona Perry to
Shtiewap • Lake.
Mr. Cambie has been continuously
associated with the Canadian Pacific
Railway and its predecessor, the
Government Railway, for sixty-eight
years. His name is perpetuated by
the station on the Canadian Pacific,
Carn»ie, .01 the giant loop below
Glacier. Mr. Cambie explored, sute-
veyed and planned the whole course•
of the Canadian Pacific through a
large sectitn•of the province of .Sxieet
ish Columbia, and under his direct •
supervision the part that rum,
through the canyons of the' Prises
;
was bent. At the ege ',of eighty
seven he is still ,hale and heartye '

engineer of the location and construe-. ,
tion
on theles
'
p ent mainline from the
Yello ehead Pass, down the N'ort!r
Thompson and Fraser Canyons tor,
New Westminster. It is interesting -
to note that he was Mr. Cambie}s^ :.
right-hand assistant during the work.•,
in the Fraser Canyon.
Mr, White has always been populna
with his fellow engineers, being noted;
for abundant good nature, ken sense;;
of humour, and an.ahsolute fairn;
in all his associations,
James Henry Kennedy, '1VC,i�.IoC,p

Carleton County, Ontario. He h '

line in British Columbia, under the
Vancouver, Victoria and Eastern Rail-
way charter, from Laurier to the
Coast. As chief engineer, he built the
first section in the Province, flea i
Laurier to Grand Forks, through the
Kettle Valley country and afterwasede
constructed the longer 'section front
Chopaka to )iirookmere, through -the
difficult Sin!tilka]nseu and Tulaineent
