Durâ€" ing the summer of 1879 the governâ€" ment made more surveys through the Piue River pass in the Rocki»s, q the fall of the same year the Governâ€" ment again decided on the Fraser river route and let the contract in the spring of 1880 for the construction of railway fraim Yale to Savano, a disâ€" tance of some 120 miles. idb ids l atucy se o0 P08 2:A 111 | Fraser River route to Port MooGy by the way of Edmonton. This was a ‘splendid route. The Dominion Govâ€" ’emment engineers were limited to a grade of about half of one per centâ€" that is a grade of six inches to one hundred feet. The Dominion Governâ€" ment then let a contract to clear the right of way for the railway â€" from Cache Creek on the Caribou Road near Ashcroft to Edmonton, about six hundred miles. They were also to put up the telegraph line. A gang was orâ€" ganized in New Westminster to do this work and Mr. Binnie was one of its members.

L.s. | _ When British Columbia entered the | Confederation in 1871, it was on conâ€" | dition that a railroad would be built across Canada to the Pacifc coast | with Victoria as the terminus. At | that time Victoria was the only city | and the capital of the Province and it was the place of power. | _ The agreement was to have the railroad started by a certain time. ! That time went by and no road was | started. The B. C. Government then â€"complained to Downing Street, the Colonial office, in London, England, that the Dominion Government po 4 failed to keep the agreement. Lord Carnarvon came to Canada and had & new agreement made. This time also elapsed and they were still surâ€" veying and no work started, British Columbia was talking secession and threatening to join the United States. In 1876, Lord Dufferin, the Governorâ€" General of Canada came to British Columbia, the city of Victoria â€" was decorated for the occasion and one of the arches bore a motto which read: "Carnarvon terms or secession." Lord Dufferin refused to go under this arch until the motto was removed . The Government had surveyed â€" a line by the way of Edmonton down the Fraser canyon to Port Moody on Burrard‘s Inlet. The surveyors were trying to find another route and finalâ€" PP ks sc‘ . C From there he went up the Caribou wagon road to Kamloops where he worked on a farm for three months. He went then to the Burrard Inlet (where Vancouvrer is toâ€"day) and worked in the logging camp until they closed in December. Then for the same company he went north about forty miles and worked until the fall of 1877. Next he homesteadâ€" ed a piece of land on Coquitlam. D0 C COmOT CEPCIT UV ME He went to Wisconsin, U. S. A., and worked in the woods the winter of 1875 and ‘76. In the spring of 1876, he left by train, the Union Pacific, the only railway across the continent, arriving at Sacramento he took a boat to San Francisco, taking another boat at that point for Victoria, B. C., arâ€" riving there in April. He looked for work at logging and found it with the Nanimo camps. He found logging conditions very different from those in eastern Canada, British Columbia haying such large timber. He workâ€" ed there for a month, and the water lowered in the river and they couldn‘t get the logs down. At the end of the seconct trip, Mr. Binnie‘s liking for the life of a sailor faded somewhat and the life on land made a much stronger appeal to himd. mrmmntnatihert expenar B in April 1875 he left home anc worked for a time in Esquesing townâ€" ship. Then he shipped on board the steamer "Quebec" on the Beatty line from Sarnia to Duluth. On the first trip they took the first outfit for Sitâ€" ton and Ward, contractors, for the C. P. R. railway and this was left at Fort William. years ago. Thomas with his brothers and sisâ€" ters attended Bunessan school and had for teachers, Archibald Black, John Fleming and Charles McArthur. Before he was twenty he had worked in logging camps and leamed_the art of squaring timber. In 1869 and 1870 he worked for Andrew Elliott at Galt. This year, 1933, while visiting relaâ€" tives at Galt he made a trip to the Eilott farm and recalled the events and experiences of life sixtyâ€"four ausnd 122 LTOZ, f20 AARXCUAITOTN, Scotland, on June 10, 1852, and was the third son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Binnie. He came to Canada with his parents at the age of nine, ariiving in Glenelg in July 1861. This move to Canada was made by Mr. and Mrs. Binnie to give their growâ€" ing family the opportunities of educaâ€" tion and a chance to make their own way for a l‘velihood. Thos. Binnie, a Former Gienelg Son, Prominent in Br. Columbia Development Very interesting is a sketch of the life of Mr. Thomas Binnie of New Westminster, formerly of Glenelg, Grey County, Ontario. Mr. Binnie went to British Columbia as a young man and his work has mostly been with the railways in the course of their construction and with the deyâ€" elopment of mines. After boyhcod spent in Gienelg, Mr. Binnie went to British Columbia, Where he held many important p ositlons in development of the pro. vince from the standpornts of lumber and mining industries, also buildâ€" ‘ng of the railways.

Looking into things more closely than he had been doing, he found they were not as thevy mhonlA nati knowledge he had gained h therqonclunon that he did THE DURHAM REVIEW whom Mr. Binnie warked took in the last passenger train that terminated at Port Moody, and the next day deadâ€" headed down on the first passenger train that came from . Montreal to Vancouver on the 23rd day of May, 1887, (that is they took their outht to Vancouver to be ready to bring out the second passenger tra‘n from that point.) Mr. Binnie worked as brake man about two years. He saw proâ€" In constructing public works there is nothing permanent. Mr. Binnie was always looking for some line of work that woulid be permanent. So he appted for the position of brake man in the passenger trains on the main line and was accepted. He workâ€" ed first from Port Moody to Kamioops and afterwards when the road was completed to Vancouver, from Vanâ€" couver to Kamloops. The crew wlt_hl whom Mr. Binnie warked took in tha When Mr, Binnie completed his contract on the New â€" Westmunster branch, the C. P: R. selected him as foreman of the workmen <» widen and to raise the roof of the six ‘tunâ€" nels, about a foot and a half off each side and about two feet off the roof. In less than two months the work was completed. _ In 1885, S‘r Charles Tupper, Minâ€" \ ister of Railways in Canada, officially _declared that Port Moody was to be the terminus of the Canadian Pacific Railway. A syndicate was formed and took over the Canadian Paciic from the Government. Some of the memâ€" bers of the syndicate came out to British Columbia and look‘ng around Port Moody found"there was no land available for yards»x Then the British Columbia â€"Government offeres the: syndicate 6,000 acres of land at Coal Harbor now Vancouver. The â€"comâ€" pany‘s charter did not permit them to extend the main line , farther than | Port Moody, but their charter allowed them to build branch lines anywhere,| so they bu‘lt a branch lins from Port: Moody to Vancouver. The Dominion | Government constructed the railway| from Port Moody to Savona, a disâ€"‘ tance of something over two hundred miles and handed this over free of charge to the Canadian Pacific Comâ€" pany. This part of the road was built with standard size tunnels, etc. When the C.P.R. took this over and conâ€". tinued further construction of the road, they were evidently short of funds and made smaller size tunnels.| When _ they â€" commenced operating . trains â€"over the line they found that . six tunnels between Kamloops and â€" Cherry Creek were rather small and â€" these had to be widened. & In the spring of 1886 the branch line from Coquitlam on the main line of railway to New Westminster, a distance of eight miles was constructâ€" ed. Mr, Binnie had a subâ€"contract of two miles. â€" In the spring of 1880 Mr. Binnie started work at Yale as a rockinan , on the construction gang. In the ; spring of 1881 he was appointed foreâ€" , man and continued to work at this , until the fall of 1885, when they met the eastern construction gangs west of the Rocky Mountains. This meant _ that railway construction was comâ€" . pleted across the continent to Port Moody. The track was then laid and the first passenger train from Monâ€" treal arrived at Port Moody sometime in June 1886. The day this train was to arrive at Port Moody was on a Sunday and Mr. A. J. Hill, a civil enâ€" gineer, Mr. Wilson, principal of New Westminster Public School, Mr. Lunâ€" bum, a retired Swedish gentleman, and Mr. Binnie walked from New Westminster the six miles to Port Moody to see the train come through. Mr. Lunbum: had left Sweden in his youth and travelled by boat to Brit‘sh Columbia in the early siXties. He worked in the Caribou mines and then went into cattle raising in the interior of Brit‘sh Columbia and had just sold out and settled in New Westminster. He had never seen a twain. British Columbia residents had been used to waiting three or four weeks for a reply from a letter sent to Montreal or anywhere in Eastâ€" ern Canada as the mail had to go â€" down the Pacific coast and across the Amer‘can continent. Now the mail service would be daily and this | fact seemed to strike Mr. Lunbum , very forcibly as he watched the inâ€" 1 coming train from Montreal. "Anâ€" { other train tomorrow," he exciaimed ; again and again. Those three men q were comrades of Mr. Binnie on that‘ 3 eventful day have passed on, but the ; events of the day are very fresh in | Mr. Binnie‘s memory. + f â€" transferred to the Dominion ment. ® In the spring of 1880 Mr to sign showing they had a claim and all who signed it held their lands.
