'The reason for this attitude is ascribed to the fact that the people living in he country realize the rigors of ministerial work outside of the cities and towns.

He grew up, as it were, with the Canadian Northern Railway, of which he became General Superiu- tendent in 1896. At that time "Bill CZEM A.

He passed away peace.I .:. "fully on November 29th, 1921, at his 'residence, Brocket Hall, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, dying painlessly of sheer old•age. Lord Mount Stephen lhad been living in absolute . retiree Iment for many years. 4. .George Stephen was a Scot, born lin 1829 at DufftoWn, 13anffehire, and his educational advantages were coa- . 'fined to. what the parish school' af- 'lorded. Leaving school at the early age., of fourteen, he was apprenticed its a draper and dealer in dry goods Aberdeen. Having completed his four years' apprenticeship, like many lin the northern land, he made his' ,way to London, where Ise joined a !well-known firm which still exists 'under . the shadow of St. :Paul's 'Cathedral. It was the middle of the 19th cen- Itury when George Stephen, then 31 4:years of age, reached Canada in ;company with his cousin, Donald !Smith (afterwards Lord Strathcona). !In Montreal he enteed the service . tof his cousin, William Stephen, who ;was in the dry goods trade, and three Iyears later he went into partnership :under the style of William Stephen'ez Company. Years of steady bard Iwork followed., In 1862 the senior partner died, and George, acquiring the whole business, began to menu- Taeture cloth. This proved remuner- ative and he soon devoted his entire 'efforts to it, relinquishing the whole- sale trade. ., George Stephen was elected a di- rector of the Bank of Montreal, and lin 1876 he was chosen as vice-presi- dent, and later as president. . :: .? The name of Lord Mount Stephen I'will be chiefly remembered as being laseociated with the conception and Ithe carrying to completion of the IC.P.R., the pioneer transcontinental 'railway. He joined the small but 14:late-mined and optimistic group of !men who had accepted the offer of the Government to build the Can- adian Pacific Raihvay. He was its first president in 1881, and the first annual report was printed on one sheet of notepaper and signed by George Stephen, Jt was fitting that he should be its first president, for he had put his all into it, for ono thing; for another, he had unrivalled driving power; and, againl he had genius for method and detail. , A. year after the completion of the C. P. 10., George Stephen was cre- ated a baronet. He built himself a anagmificent home on Drummond St., Montreal, in which he took great pride, especially in the conservatory, built after the English style, as well ,as in his pictures'to which he de- voted much attention, In thinking of the public . welfare ,of the community, Sir George Ste, Then at that period displayed great generosity. Sir George Stephen resigned the presidency of the el. P. R. in 1888, en which he was succeeded by the late •Sie William Van Horne, who consolidated, and at the same time extended the service and earnings Of that great corporation.

"During the last 26 or 26 years' he had lived in England, but he fol-' lowed Canadian affairs with thei keenest interest. "In view of the part that 110 play -I ed in the first and most important, enterprise connected with Canada's' progress, I am sure that the name. of Lord Mount Stephen will always' • t. be cherished by Canadians, and, in.( , deed, throughout the world." "My most intimate connections with him were in 1894 and 1886, when the Government, after the first loan, were loath to provide any more money, It was during that emerg- ency that he and Lord Strathcona, furnished the requisite funds from their own fortunes, et a considerable sacrifice, no doubt, because they had. to soli other securities that they held to raise the money. Finally the Government did make a further loan of $5,000,000, which saw the com- pany through, and enabled it to get along until Lord Mount Stephen, or George Stephen, as he was then, had Succeeded in selling the coin' pany's first mortgage beta& through Baring Brother& "Jest as soon as the company re- ceived payment for its bonds, thel' whole debt to the Government wall paid.

There was no issue of these marringes; burLord Mount Stephen adopted a dae;ehter, who married a son of the No- -eta fam- ily in England. /0 Is of interest to note that al- though in his valedictory to the C.

Years ago the poet wrote about the "stately homes of England," but Canada, says a recent writer, can boast of homes just as stately. T.he well -kept farm hornet and farm buildings that dot the countryside give us a sense of security, and go to show that all is well with rural Ontario.
