UITAWA, Canada —July U. 1.. SUMMARY

Purchases by the Wartime mod Corporation served to hold cattle - prices of exportable uality to fairly inn levels during s past week. Domestic slaughter material, how- ever, was generally under pressure and there was some recession in prices, dioslng rates being down 50 cent; or moze at some of the major markets. Calves were generally steady to firm and hogs were also firm sellers but lambs, under the influence of increasing offerings, were seasonally lower.

Eastern Cattle Markets.

Cattle prices were down 50 cents by the C1050 at TORONTD with good steers at $10 to $10.26 for weighty kinds and also for butcher steers and butcher cows at $0.50 to $7.50. There were no top steers of- fered at MONTREAL but there was s good demand for all grades of live stock and gOOd steers sold up t0 $10.75 and good cows were mostly $8.26, with an odd . In the MAR cattle prices remained steady with good to choice steers quoted at $10 to $10.50.

(Continued)

There was a large and attract- ive park not far from the station, and the best residential streets were grouped around it. Also the thorough fare that led to it, which was called Fawcett Street, was lined wih high-class shops. There was a small lake in the park, but the feature that most appealed to me was s hill of artificial con- struction, that stood in the centre. It had been erected (as a relief measure) of the magnesian lime- stone of the district, and was rather circular in plan, but cliff- like on the sides except for a curv- ed ascending ramp. The sides were left rough, and harbored many vdld plants, The platfoim on top must have been fairly high, for one could look over the hOHSCtOPS and see the ocean. There were railings to keep juveniles from tumbling over and seats for the old folk. Dn sul- try days people went up there for the cool breeze.

Years passed on; I had grown to manhood before I began to visit. sunderland on business. I began to look at the town with the eye 0f an sntlquary. To my surprise. I found that. only one-seventeenth of its area was legally Buriderlarid: the rest was Monkwearmouth to the north of the Wear. and Bishop- wearmouth on the south side. Sun- derland was “5i1l1dt2Y9d" from the great township of Bishopwearmouth and became a. distinct parish only in 1719. On the maps. however. Sun- derland has swallowed all the rest!

Bishopwearmouth has the edge 1n ancient history. though; King Athelstan granted his "pleasant vill of South Wearmouth, with all is appendices" (limds. etc-J t0 the church of st. Cuthbert, who wfls I charter to the burgesses of wear- mouth, about 1171. and some of the privileges conferred by it ore indeed rcmarkable. Within the borough there was to be neither bloodwite, merchete, heriot, nor stengesduit. Such a charter, which was usually "granted" on payment of a lartie sum of money to the Lord of the Manor (in this case the Bishopi was really the first dent in the armor of the Feudal System. Towns and cities treasured their charters whldh we're seldom or never disput- ed by their rulers. The reason is not far to seek: if the grantor did not respect his own charter he could look for no further Supplies of money from the citizens when next he was in need.
