All the involved are Roman Catholics stice Drouin had passed judj in the in which Dr Mrs. Neilson asked for the an | ment of their marriage, | annulment was granted, but the fam ily of the girl wife of young Mr. Neil- { son entered an opposition to this an- fiulment, and it was én- this opposi- tion that Judge Belleau on Saturday Judge Drouin's previous nt and now maintained as va- marriage of Neilson to the ago of me me cas a son's anc girl Judge Belleau based his judgment on the main facts, as reviewed in his remarks from the Bench, that the faction had been entered by the par ents of the husband after they pre- viously | sonally attended to the wedding; duly and legally married after stat- ing that he was of legal age and not a minor. every detail of The facts of the case, as related, | a9 to the courts, are that on March 1910, young Robert N. Neilson married to Alexina Beaudin, of | Grande Riviere, county of Gaspe. The marriage took place in the parish church of St. Jeah | be, accompanied by her father, had come from Grand . Riviere where young Neilson was then employed as a bank clerk and where he first be- | | came acquainted with the girl. | The marriage is duly registered on i the church books, Neilson having de- i scribed himself asa major, free from he formalities reguired of minors. Neilson, it appeared, had asked i that the marriage be kept secret from { his parents, fpr the time being, at {teast. Subsequently Neilson's parents were informed of the wedding. and showed the young wife marks of sympathy and affection, both in let- ters written and verbally. A few | months ago the parents of the young | husband changed their attitude to- wards the young woman and peti- tioned the court to annul the wedd- ing on the ground that their son was a minor when he married and he had not their consent to wed. The case aroused interest through- { out the province, not only on acceunt | of the high social standing of the principals, but also because of the { human interest which surrounded the | case, which won universal sympathy | for the young wife and child eight vears of age), who wha were fighting for the right, given them hy the marriage caremony, to the name of Neilson. 4 i | i § { | 1 | | | { "Flying Parson" Won."

General Ross remarked at the out- {set of his address, that it was five { yearq since nominations bad been { held for the legislature, and during this time, it had not been his priv- ilege to represent the people actively in the house. His duties had fallen upon the shoulders of Anthony Ran- kin, and to the latter was due the thanks of the speaker, and also the citizens of Kingston. General Ross then gave a review of the work of the Hearst Government, giving reasons why he thought this Government should be returned to power. He spoke of the hearty sup- port given the Government during the war by Mr. Proudfoot, ieader of that this Mr. Prondfoot would not be opposed in this election. Referring to the temperance gques- tion, General Ross said the Hearst Government stood ready to give the people what they wanted and as a member of this Government, be did {not think there could be any doubt' | N. L, U {as to his opinion regarding it. He remarked that temperance was neces- sary at the front. Men could not get { medicine, and if men at the front {could do without it, he did apt think | ite true that there were some | of the | {type of Tom Moore at the head of the | opie at home ion of vote privil vad shown them certainly the war, the w¢ selves equal to the men. General Ross said his appointment et minister came to him as an honor to Kingston His department had not been defined, but he believed that it would very largely have to do with public insti- tutions and returned soldiers His sympathy turned into th channel The general declared that Eastern Ontario owed a good deal to the Hearst Government. He spoke of the support given thé School of Mining by the Hearst Government. And at Queen's University he had heard the statement that the Hearst Govern- im had been more liberal to the {returned men than that 'of the Gov ernment at Ottawa In making a {review of the last five years, the speaker found that every department of the Ontario I islature had been most sa actor looked after. As to agricultural interests, he found that in the fifteen years the amount voted to this department had increas- ed from $474000 to $1,600,000 There was some criticism offered, the claim being made that there should hé more farmers in the leg ture: There had been twenty-one active rmers and seventy-one sons of far- s Chis would do away with this To vote for the farmers' s alone was not a sound prin ciple or commen sense. The speaker referred to the Work- men's Compensation Act which went into force five years ago The sum of $9,330,000 had been paid out, and the lawyers alone suffered as a result a surpr e m erit 1 sm interes of this legislation of the Hearst Gov- | ernment As to Hydro-Electric pow- er, a step had been taken in Eastern Ontario, in that two powers, that at Niagara and the Seymour or Trent had been purchased The sum of $321.000,000 had been paid out for power with 675,000 horse-power Ex- tension of this work must go on. It was largely in the hands of Sir Adam Beek. The speaker declared that hydro was one of the greatest things to advertise Ontario The educational department, under Hearst Government, had dlso orged ahead, and the speaker went ato 'detatls of the establishment of technical and agricultural schools The work undertaken was but a be- ginning. The Hearst Government had given strong support to the mili- tia departmenf.
