The final results of the canvass were received at a big mass meet- ing held in the city hall on Thurs- day night, presided over by Mayor Shaw. The hall was packed to the doors with a "strictly patriotic" crowd, and when the final result of the collection was made known, the old hall, which has been the scene of so many important gather- ings, fairly shook With the tremen- dous applause. It was a great meet ing--one never to be forgotten by all present. ! When the applause following the final announcement died away, the audience arose and sang the dox- ology. The different captains of the teams engaged in the campaign re- ported, and each one was warmly anplauded for the work accorplish- ed. G. A. Warburton, ,of Toronto, or- ganizer for the fund, was tendered an ovation for the part he under- took, and was made the recipient of for the gift, in a most fitting "man- ner, and also took oc fon to thank all the officers who had taken part in the gampaign, stating that he had never seen better work done in any campaign of this character.
