TAILIEUCHUNG - The Day of Sir John Macdonald

Within a short time will be celebrated the centenary of the birth of the great statesman who, half a century ago, laid the foundations and, for almost twenty years, guided the destinies of the Dominion of Canada. Nearly a like period has elapsed since the author's Memoirs of Sir John Macdonald was published. That work, appearing as it did little more than three years after his death, was necessarily subject to many limitations and restrictions. As a connected story it did not profess to come down later than the year 1873, nor has the time yet arrived for its continuation and completion on the same. | The Day of Sir John Macdonald by Joseph Pope 1 The Day of Sir John Macdonald by Joseph Pope The Project Gutenberg EBook of The Day of Sir John Macdonald by Joseph Pope This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.

TORONTO GLASGOW BROOK COMPANY 1915 Copyright in all Countries subscribing to the Berne Convention vii PREFATORY NOTE Within a short time will be celebrated the centenary of the birth of the great statesman who half a century ago laid the foundations and for almost twenty years guided the destinies of the Dominion of Canada. Nearly a like period has elapsed since the author s Memoirs of Sir John Macdonald was published. That work appearing as it did little more than three years after his death was necessarily subject to many limitations and restrictions. As a connected story it did not profess to come down later than the year 1873 nor has the time yet arrived for its continuation and completion on the same lines. That task is probably reserved for other and freer hands than mine. At the same time it seems desirable that as Sir John Macdonald s centenary approaches there should be available in convenient form a short résumé of the salient features of his viii career
