(By Lt. Col. D. A. Macxinnon. D. S. 0.. V. D.)
In the fall of 1900 I was asked by H. R. Large. Captain of the Charlottetown Salvage Corps. to get together a team that would represent the Corps in the Fire- man's Tournament which was to take place at Halifax the next August. I was told the particulars. The Salvage Corps wagon with a rope lead would be drawn by ten young men and the distance was to he s quhrter of a mile.
There was quite ii number of good athletes around at the time and I interested the best of them and had them join up. Two were already members of the Corps. They are shown in the accom- panying picture. Back row from left to right a H L. Bethune. Frank Creamer. Arthur Cameron. J. A. Webster. J. Walter Jones. D. A. MacKinnon. Front row - L. B. MacMillan. Charles Mit- chell. Les Adams, Phil Duffy. J. A. MacMillan.
Arthur Cameron had won a Maritime championship for half- mile bicycle and the mile champ- ionship at Halifax the previous year. setting up a new Maritime record for the quarter mile of 1.06 3x5. He was a very strong man and was afterwards winner of the intercollegiate slround championship while a member of Queens University. .I. A. Web- ster.s who was a member of the Corps. was a very powerful ath- lete and quite a good runner. as was also Cameron. J. Walter Jones had won the Maritime cham- pionship for the 16-pound hammer the previous year. He could also run a quarter mile close to- a minute. D. A. Msclflnnnn. L. B. MacMillan and Phil Duffy were winners of Maritime championship running events. Leslie Adams had also competed in Maritime cham- pionships and was a splendid quarter and half-mile runner.

Phil Duffy had won the Maritime championship for the quarter mile the previous year snd was also an excellent hnlf-mile run- ner. James Macmillan had com- peted in the Maritime champion- ships and while not s Maritime champion runner then. he was shortly afterwards. The team combined the nec- essary elements to make it s record-breaking one. Jones and Webster were placed at the back of the wagon. Arthur Cam- eron and Frank Creamer at the wagon tongue where strength and speed were both required. Jim MacMiilan and Phil Duffy were on the lead of the rope with the other athletes placed at intervals along the rope. The two leaders were at the starting point when the stnrter's pistol was fired. Jones and Webster used all their strength to give the wagon its initial push. The time was care- fully taken by official timers and when the team finished it was announced to be 1.04 M5 - s world's record which we believe still stands.
