TWENTY YEARS AGO At Quebec recently the Hon. Athanase David, Provincial Secretary in the Quebec Cabinet, officiated at the unveiling of a monument erected by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company in memory of Abraham Martin. who was the first known Canadian of Scottish descent and the first King’s pilot on the St. Lawrence River. The Plains of Abraham re- ceived their name from him, he re- ceiving a grant of the land from Champlain in 1617. The unveiling of the monument. a handsome gran- ite shaft seven feet high surmounted by a globe supported by thistles, was an important event and was attended by a large number of prominent citi- zens and political representatives.
