' J On Friday. the 17th, our Brigade, l 400 strong. marched into camp head- " ed by the band of the 29th Reg. It '. was a fine sight to see them coming ' up the lines with martial tread, Many other Brigades came in about. the same time, and by Saturday there were about eight thousand soldiers under cover in Savard Park. During the forenoons for a few days the troops practised the ceremonial drillI required for the Grand Review. Our! work, however. was more pleasant than arduous. In the afternoons we ‘were permitted to spend the time pretty much as we liked. If we went up town we had to be neatly and properly dressed Guards were stationed at the exit, and it was their duty to see that every soldier who. passed out dressed according to the regulations. Pickets also patrolled the streets to maintain order and decorum, but their duties were light We were supposed to return to camp before 1 o’clock, but the rule was never enforced, so that the boys camel straggling in at all hours. waking upi those who had retired earlier in the , night. On dark nights many of the, I l boys had great ditficuity in locating their tents, Towards the latter part of our stay the boys did not go out. so much, as the most of them had, spent all their money.- We had splendid board while in Camp, thanks‘ to a competent cook and a provident. QuartermaSter. Of course we did not lie on feather ticks, but we slept soundly nevertheless. In fact many a visitor to the Tercentenary wishedl they had as sure and safe sleeping‘ quarters as we had. One of the: pleasantest outings I had when I was in Quebec was a trip 1 took to Ste. Ann de Beaupre. It is not necessary for me to write much about this well known and famous church farther than to say that it" fourlarge columns of crutches, walking sticks, wooden . legs,’ etc., etc., is any eriteria then ' there have certainly leen some I astonishing cures at this church. Anyone who visits the Fortress Cigv and fails to take a trip to Ste. Ann de Beaupre will sureh miss a great, dEel of pleasure and information. I also enjoyed very much walking along the narrow Streets and looking at the old fashioned houses of (3 iebec. Everything is so diflerent from an Ontario city that one wonders at times whether he is in Canada or not. Dozens of timesthe only answer I got when asking for information was “Ms no Spick Angleesh ” And often I Wished 1 had taken up French when attending the Collegiate Insti tute However, we had two or three boys in our company who could speak Classic City Chronicles. a few words of French. and thev often helped us out in a pinch. On one occasion we had just come ashore from visiting a battleship and were walking up Little Champlain street. when one of the aforesaid buys. in order to show off his “French.” said to a little six year old lassie “Petite tille,” and she immediately answered with a broad Irish accent "Sure Mike." We laughed heartily at this appropriate but altogether unexpect‘ ed rejoinder. On one of my after- noon rambles, shortly after our arrival in Quebec, I had the exceed ingly high honor of visiting Lord Roberts. I had gone to see the Plains of Abraham for the first time, and quite naturally found my way to Wolfe’s monument. I had gone inside the fence which encloses the monument and was reading the in scription when a party, consisting a lady and three gentlemen, came near. They chatted about the events con- nected with the memorial, but I paid very little attention to them. But just as I prepared to walk away they were standing in the gateway, and as I passed by I saluted them. I had gone only a few steps when one of the gentlemen called to me. I stop pod and he inquired the name of my regiment, etc. He then said if you will come back "I will introduce you to Lord Roberts.” I went back and as 1 came face to face With that great general a strange feeling of awe stole over me. I gave him the military salute, which be promptly and grace- fully returned. He evidently took me for a "Regular,” for his first question was “How long have you been in the army?” I told him that I was a volunteer and not a regular soldier. He was much interested in our composite Regiments ani the Brigades. He questioned me about the city from which I came, its schools and cadet corps. Regarding the school. he seemed surprised that I taught both boys and girls. When Iwas leaving he said ‘Be sure to make all the boys good soldiers " It is needless to say that I returned to camp that evening with a swelled head. When we lined the streets the day the Prince of Wales arrived, I got a good view of his Ropal High- ness. He also passed up and down the lines previous to the Grand Re- view on the Plains of Abraham, where nearly 20,000 soldiers and sailors marched past him. As we came home by the G. '1‘. R., we had to cross the river on the ferry boat. Fortunately we were just in time to witness an exciting boat race, in which picked crews from the British U. 8. and French men-of-war. As is well known, the British sailors were victorious. Arriving at Point Levis, we entrained for the Classic City, whioh'was reached the next day at 5.20 p.m., and like "Farmer John" we could say "The ‘hestof a journey is getting I’v o m n 8" en t sigh t!
