THE AYRSHIRE PLOUGFMAN

Possibly no writer is more self- revealing than Robert Burns. and We are able to trace his literary devflwlinient. know his very 111011811115. see how he looked at life. find his reaction to the movements of his day in sociology and religion-all this in his poetry. Some critic has made the remark that "he is buried in biographies" for many have written of him - some extolling him to the very heavens. and others placing hii-n Hmong Brent sinners and saying that he wrote about a parish and not about things that appeal to the world at large—that he was but a parochial poet."

He was a personal- Iii’. one of the greatest of all iimeii- Physical appearance plays l- Iilffll pert in the study of per- sonality, and he was a fine look. ins man. His pictures represent him as such. He was well built and his eyes. according to the testimony of Sir Walter Scott, were glowing like coals. But hard work "d 105ml’ living reduced him and he died at thirty seven.

He was fond of people and as a result often drifted into company not worthy of him. He wag 1511c "m" 0i lily group lic was in and his conversational powers were so remarkable that we are told that hustlers would get out of bed early just to hear him talk.

characteristics of a person who has real character. self ' nesa destroys this. To think

that a person is acting and look- ing for applause. robs a product of its merit-be it a poem, or a sermon. Burns’ utterances go right to the heart like an arrow. Stopford Brooke treats Burns in his book on theology in the Eng- lish poets. No one would think of putting Burns among the hypo- critea. He wears no mask. He flayed as effectively as his his fellow-countrymen. Carlyle, all those who believed in shams. The kirk of his day needed reform and he had little use for folk whose religion consisted in running down these who differed from them. No one can read his “prayer- in the prospect of death". or the verses written on the same occasion -- verses which Marjorie Fleming re- peated before she died, without feeling that here was a man who had, as the Scots folk would say "the root of the matter in him." The same ls true of the prayer he left in the room of a manse where he had been entertained. We have the feeling of worship as we read the "Cotter! Satilrday Night." No one can go through the world on tip-toe as did he. wondering at the things God had made, with- out. having a sense of reverence, and that is akin to religion.

Here was a patriot. And yet his works have an appeal far beyond his beloved country. Scots folk love the very soil, and Bums has done much to foster this pride in their native land. One writer sums up his character in words like these: "when we think of his sincerity. of his rectitude, his kindness to- wards man and beast, his scorn of the base. of which he suffered, what he surmounted, against what privationa he struggled, his achievements; we are bound to conclude that his life was one of the most valiant and most noble a poet ever lived".

These words heart:

“Then gently scan your brother man.

Still gentler sister woman;

Tho‘ they may ging a. ksnnln wrang,

‘lb step aside is human; '

One point must still be dark;

The moving Why they do it;

And Just as lamely can ye mark.

How far perhaps they rue it...."

As Mrs. Howett has been con- fined to her bed for the past two years and is not very well. the iri- terview was taken with her 88- year-old husband, a former paint-

er and decorator of this city. whose original home was Cape Traverse.

From Mr. Howett we learned

that his 93-year-old partner. (nee Hannah Parsons) was born at Charlottetown in the year 1866. Her parents came to the Island, from England when they were quite a young couple.

The four children born to this union are still living.

Mrs. Hewett has outlined all her brothers and sister-a family made up of ten members.

Mr. Howett said they were mar- ried in the Old Methodist Church now occupied by the Ritz Apart- ments, but could not recall the clergyman‘: name who tied the matrimonial knot.

MR. EDWARD

SHEPHERD

At 48 l-2 Peake street we had the advantage of meeting Mr. Edward Shepherd, who was born at Cardigan 93 years ago.

Mr. Shepherd was twice married. First to Mary MacDonald also of Cardigan. They had 14 children. six of whom are alive. Two reside iin Boston. one in Calgary and three on the Island. _

His second wife (with whom he now lives) was Isabel Weir of Calgary, Alberta. Isabel came to this province when s baby and was brought up at Scotchfort.

They have one child. Mary Kath- eran. who ls three years old.

Mr. Shepherd has 25 grand- _ children and ZZ-great-graxiiichiid- en.

Mr. Shepherd's first venture was farming, but after 11 years of till- ing the soil he came to this city where he worked with City Depart- ment until his retirement.‘

Mr. Shepherd was one of] fam- ily of 12. He had one sister, Mra. MacNelll who died in Charlotte- town 2 years ago at the ripe old

age of I77.

Mra. Joseph lleselden.

Still hale and hearty, with good hearing anti an excellent memory. this remarkable old candidate takes care of the fires in winter and cultivates o large garden each summer.

Always a user of tobacco and liquor in moderation, Mr. Shep‘ herd looks forward to enjoying many more years of happy living.

The three-year-oid daughter mentioned in this sketch is Mr. shepherd's latest edition to a large family. "believe it or not." -
