Edmison Memories
[These
items were shared with many of Alex Edmison's correspondents, and
copies are in the Edmison fonds, one of the larger archival collections
at the Trent Valley Archives at Fairview Heritage Centre. Alex Edmison
was one of Canada's favourite after dinner speeches and his memories
had charm. We plan often to share other memories and tales from his
talented pen.]

The
Jagship of the Trent [J. Alex Edmison comments that
this item appeared in the Peterborough Review around 1914. "The
reference to the Honourable James R. Stratton who died in 1916, caused
a minor sensation at the time, and I remember the roars of laughter
occasioned when read. I recollect seeing, years after, the yellowed
clipping produced from wallets as a sure-fire conversation piece."]
Peterborough
Protestant Home 1887
Jane Gifford Hall
[Editor's note: The
following report, which appeared in the local newspaper, was glued into
the minute books of the Peterborough Protestant Home. These records are
in the Anson House fonds at the Trent Valley Archives, fonds 35. This
report has very wide interest as it comments on several people, on
funeral arrangements, on the handling of infectious disease, and on the
importance of the fairly new Nicholls Hospital. The report was written
by the secretary, Jane Gifford Hall, and covered the six months from
March to September 1887. If you have information relating to any of the
names mentioned in this report please let us know.
