The plumbing trade soon developed here after he had in- troduced new ideas and improvements. lie also proved an impetus to the heating and ateaintitting trade. A few of the con- tracta he handled in the city were roong a section of the county court houne with sheet lead, uning seven tone of lead; roof- ing the Royal military college with gal- vanized iron. and heating and doing the plumbing work of Queen s university. In the heating system of the university he in- troduced 3 new idea in indirect redietior His business career has been very success- ful. as his work has always been satise- tory, and he met with no losses through re, etc. Some of the leading plumbers of the city are graduates of his establish- ment.

On his way out he landed in Ca- nada to visit a sister. residing near Carle- ton Place. From there he came to Kings- ton by way of ltideau canal on the steaimr Beavenintending to enter thesbates at(Jape Vincent. On the steamer he met Mr. AI- lan. of the rm of Allan & Matthews, con tractors. who built some of the Martollo towors. Mr. Allan advised him to remain here as young men of his experience were in groat demand. At that time, 1850. the water works system was being introdnccd, and much against his own wishes Mr. Mc- Neil was persuaded to accept a position with the water works company. with which he remained for about ve years. He noted as foreman during the laying of street mains, giving only a portion of his time to that work. About a year after his arrival here he opened a plumbing shop on Bagot street, in the Lamhton buildings, on the present site of Macnee 8L Minnen wholesale iwarehouee. He superintendcd the laying of the water pipes as well as conducting his own work. Plumbing in Ontario was then in a primitive state. Mr. McNeil being the only practical workman between Toronto and Montreal. His ser- vices were in great demand, so that his business extended for miles east and west of the city. He was called to lhlleville. Ihcton. Brockville and other cities and towns, where his services were much in demand. Had he been exhorbitant in his charges when he had control of the trade Mr. McNeil would soon have become a man of allluenco, hut his principle was to act liberally and honestly with all I-`ubsenuantlv mmmd 5;. .L..... a- uuu, nun DUU pUl'0llB.

A glance at the name is sufficient evi- dence that Mr. McNie| is a Scotchman. Glasgow is his native city. be having been born there in 1825, consequently he retires from business at almost seventy-four years of age. Having received a fair public school education he was apprenticed in the plumbing trade, being bound to seven years service before he became a journey- man. The apprcntice's wages than were four shillings a week for the limb year,with a raise of a shilling ii week each succeed- ing year. In those days employers treat- ed their employees with greater kindness than is done at the present time, 1 nd the latter took greater interest in their mas` ter s work. When business was dull, with practically nothing for the men to do, the workmen were kept on for weclis, (0 they would be available when trade become brisk. This amicable relation between em- ployers and employees continued until the latter branched out into strikes and began making demands. The attitude of the em ployer was then reversed and he was obliged to adopt stern rule !or his own protection. When Mr. McNeil entered the plumbing business lead was almost exclusively used in the trade. The Scotch borrowed the idea of making sheet lead from England, and he remembers the first works erected in Glasgow to manufacture lead pipe. There was very little iron usid in nine making tlmn l.am`l um. .....,i .-.. Awuu ylyuu Luuru was very name Iron ustd pipe making then.

He does not boast of having amassed great wealth during his active career, but his long toil has rewarded him with a fair share of this world s goods, and he turns from the field of labor with the satisfac-ti in of having acted fairly with himself and all men in so far as the trying vicissitudes of the business world will allow a man to act. Of a retiring nature be has thus pursued his work, but caution marked his every step, and it is caution which more often brings satisfactory success than reckless deals and fearless speculation. His active business career will close with the dying year. although the necessary pafiers, transferring his stock and good wi l to F. D. Phillips & Co., were signed Wednesday.
