The departure oi' the Canadian troops wllo are now

well across the Atlantic was accomplished in a highly reliitable manner not only to ('ol.

Indeed a special invitation would have been sent to the Kaiser to send his best ships to meet them or at least to see them go by, but for the feet that it was only too well known that the invitation would have been declin- ed. There is s stsndiiig invitation to the fleet hidden behind

On the North Shore of Prince Ed-

ward island a few miles South of the North Cape. there is a small body of water called Sea Cow Pond. This ‘body of water, though it has an out- - let to the Gulf of St. Lawrence and drains that long stretch of juniper and cedar swamp that lies between the settlements of Norway and Sea Cow Pond, has never been dignified with the name of river, but from time im- nlemorial has been called “The Pond." No halo of romance clings to this commonplace and plehlan sheet of water. The lonesome looking crall- es which stand by its brillk hour af- ter hour awaitlng patiently the ap- proach of some misguided fish, or the music of the frogs whose “Sounds of reveiry by night” have abridged the sleep or stimulated the prof`allity of many a weary plowboy alld flsllerlllan, have never appealed to the llllagina- tion of the poet, so that Sea Cow Pond to this day reulaills unsung. its only claim to a place in story rests on a tradition fostered and kept alive by old Pat. Reilly and related to more than one generation of Sea Cow Pond- ers by that aged alld accomplished story teller. This tradition tells of a strange incident in the history of the settlement, which gave to the pond and settlement their peculiar name. it is well known that tile ivory tusks of thc. Sea Cow or walrus have been found on the shores of the Pond. Ill- deed there are nlen yet living wllo have picked llp_these tusks, and with the exception ot’ those who relied im- plicitly on the veracity of old Pat Re-illy's story, there was always lnore or less speculation by the inhabitants

(lid Pat lived in li very unpretent-

ious abode on the "Prairie" about a lluartcr ol a mile North ot' the Pond, and \l-as a great authority not only on current events, but oil the ancient history and traditions of the settle- ment. lic was a large man with a broad goodhllmored face and though very scalltilly endowed with this world's goods, took illllllense enjoy- ment out of life, and thought the world wc live ill all exceliellt one. i-le lil-vcr took kindly to agriculture as a means of' livelillooll, so he follow- ed the occllpzltioll of a fisherman, and did not do ally more :lt that than was absolutely necessary. When sitting ill thc stcrli of his fishing boat dress- ed ill his oil skin jacket and battered sou' wester. you saw at once that he had struck his natural gait, and that it would be little less than shameful to force ally other elllploynlcnt upon him. Like all those who are unable to acquire a reasonable share ot’ the wol'ld's goods, he was a great dream- er ot' dreams. Sometlllllg kept contin- ually whispering to him that llc was destined to find buried treasures, and illany deep excavations made by his pick and shovel ill differcllt parts ot' the surrounding country attest to the extent of his folly alid the sincer- ity of his faith. He knew the history of all the vessels that were shipwreck- ed on the "Reef" off the North Cape since the discovery of the Island, and appeared to hc oil the most fallliliar terms with thc ghosts of drowned seamen, who on the eve of every great storlll, when the North East winds moaned and sighed, all'd the breakers pounded furiously against the pebbly sides of the rcl-1', haunted this dc- voted spot. and with piercing screams warned approacllillg vesssels away i`rolll this awful graveyard. One ship- wreck in prlrticillar had a wierd fac- clnation for iilln. This was the wreck of the English i\iall ol` \\`ar of severity- foilr gulls inalne ullknown) lost lvltil all hands on thc reef off the North Capo ill the carly part ol' the iiltll cell- tury. She was oil her way to Quebec to pay oft` the garrlsoll there. and had all iroli chest on board of trelllcndolls size filled with soverciglls to bc used for that purpose. Poor old Reilly lili- gered folldly over the thought oftllis well filled box. llc knew its size and shape, and collld point. out oil the cllart the very spot where it was ly- ing. it was his property, and some day when the wind anti weather mill all conditions were favorable, llc woulll rult out wllll ills dory and bring it liomc. To this day tho box luis no-vcr been recovered, and Reilly nev- er handled any of thc sovcrelgus. though hc pro- bably dcrivcd as lliucll ploasul‘c from tllelll'\vllcl'c ho had tllcnl so sco- urely locatcd out on the storllly reef as if he really had tllcln ill his posses- slull. ~

Old Put was at ills best us ll story

tt-lit-r oil a stormy evening after he lllld pilrtakcll ot` a hearty sllppcr. llc filled ills cupaclolls clay pipe, black- ened by liiontlls of faitiiflll service, and started it going by picking up a great red coal from the fire place and placing it on top, glancing at it occasionally ill ll most uncanny way, to sce if fl was doing its work proper- ly. Wliell he hull succeeded ‘ill getting the old pipe under u satisfactory head ot' steam, he leaned hack in ills chair alld was prepared for the even- lllg'll cllil-rtallilllellt_ if nothing more llltcrestillg l-anis up he could always tell ol' his exploits and litirrow escapes during past fishing seasons. l-lc collld tell amazing stories of iioiv the cod- flsll “bit” on it memorable evening on 'I`orrln's Bank. aild the hnlll lie would have lllnde if ill- only had enough bali of the school oi` mackerel he raised off the Black Marsll. and the way he was takillg them in until old Fabian lec- bowcd llilll. Ol’ getting pinched by li. sudden .\‘or‘\vester very close in ofl’ the Haw Blish. and the nasty head chop llc had to contend with in fight- ing his way around the reef. it was when he was ill one of these talking moods tllat we heard him tell of how the sea cows were induced to pay a visit to the polld. A few of the boys gathered into old Pat`s one evening and seeing that everything looked favoriibls-,cautiously and rliplomatlcal- ly introduced the subject of sea cows.

"Wlly"' said old Pat "in my old

Dad’s time here, sea ceows wer' thou- ght no more of here 'an propoise is now. Every one knows that the ccows came in reg’Iar every year_snd had their calves in the pond here. and hid them ill the tall rushes until they were able to do for themselves." “What do sea cows look like Uncle Pat" asked one of the boys "and how did they get into pond when the run the the sea ls only two or and Hve or
