East of the Fort we found Dcffer:i:n

terrace is Frontenac Chateau rebuilt
to take the place of .J ronteziac's old
wooden castle. Surrounding it is the
famous board walk. Here people

nificent. It wa's our pleasure to hear
a' band concert on the Terrace the
night of our visit. The Plains of Ab-
raham has been converted into a
beautiful park during the regime of
The Dulce of Connaught. The park
is grand. Many of the land marks
remain but I had hoped to :find the 1
plains as they originally were. Fur-

Montmorency where the British were
repulsed prior to Wolfe's victory and
in the channel lies Orleans island be-
