LABLE LIGHTHOUSE AIDED BY BRITAIN' OVER 100 YEARS AGO Halifax, N.8,, June 14--Sable Island, that "graveyard of the At. lantic" off the Nova Scotia coast, has always figured in the news, An item reproduced by the Halifax Chronicle from an old newspaper file of June, 1926, tells how the British Government granted al- lowance of 400 pounds sterling for the support of the lighthouse on the Island, proyiding a similar sum was contributed by the Legislature of Nova Scotia, The grant was re. garded "as a fresh instance, if in- deed any were wanted, of that 1ib- erality which distinguishes the gifts of our maternal Government," The writer felt that Canada (now Ontario and Quebec) and New Brunswick should contribute to the upkeep of the lighthouse. The item read as follows ' By the last packet advices have been received from the British Gov- ernment allowing 400 pounds sterl- ing per annum towards the sup- port of the establishment on the Island of Sable, providing a like sum be contributed by the Legisla- ture of the province. This grant we consider amply sufficient for the purpose, and as a fresh instance, if indeed any were wanted, of that liberality which distinguishes the gifts of our maternal Government While upon the subject we would beg to remark that we cannot see on what principle of justice Canada and New Brunswick can refuse to furnish a certain quota of the ex- penditure for this establishment.
