 brother, who had completed his term as a pupil : 



" We hear well of my brother, who has recently moved to Ontario. 

 Guelph, and is quite able to look after himself/' 



Mrs. G-. writes, December 7th, 1884, respecting her son 

 in Ontario : 



" I continue to have good accounts from my son with regard to Ontario. 

 his health and interest in his work. .... Will you kindly 

 send me another little book, as I have given mine away, and some 



friends here (Major and Mrs. J ) would like to see it. I have 



already given them your address, as I am sure no young man 

 could go abroad under better agency." 



A. C. writes, December 20th, 1884 : 



" We have heard from my brother, and he seems both very Ontario. 

 happy and comfortable. He says he has quite left the old country 

 behind for ever." 



J. M. writes, December 30th, 1884 : 



" I have received a letter from my son in which he says : — Ontario. 

 'Everybody says I look much better and stronger, and to-day 

 I have felt so. The longer I am here the more I like it, and the 

 people are all so kind to me ; they are so nice among themselves.' 

 As I feel sure this report will be as gratifying to you as it has 

 proved to xiB, I have much pleasure in transcribing it for your 

 perusal. The boy writes in capital spirits and will, I believe, get 

 on. He makes no complaint of any kind, and is evidently enjoying 

 his Canadian life." 



Mrs. D. writes, January 1st, 1885, respecting her son in 

 Ontario : 



" We heard from our son this morning. He seems more pleased Ontario, 

 with Canada each letter we have." 



T. W. writes, January Gth, 1885 : 



" Everything seems going on very satisfactorily. I had a Quebec. 

 letter also from my son yesterday morning, in which he expressed 

 himself as thankful he had come out, and felt himself twice as 

 strong with all the cold and hard work he was going through, and 

 the people he was with were kind to him." 



H. P., January Gth, 1885, quotes an extract fi'om his 

 son's letter : 



*' I like my life out here very much, although I have to work Tasmania.
