In the\npassing of Mr. Caulfield removes\na well known person who was\nconnected with the early history\nof our town. He was in the\nhardware business, was interested\nin mining and owned considerable\nproperty here at that time; aliso\nconducting the Pioneer Hotel in\npartnership with C. J. McArthur.\nThis hotel was razed a number of\nyears ago to make place for the\nFederal building.\nIn mentioning the death The\nDaily Colonist, Victoria, says:\n\"After an illness' lasting several\nmonths Mr. John Joseph Caulfield\npassed awav on Thurday at his home,\n321 Quebec'Street.\nMr. Caulfield was born at Oshawa,\nOnt, in 1857 and went to Winnipeg,\nMan., while a mere youth. In Winnipeg he engaged in a mercantile business, which he also ..followed in\nBrandon, where he resided later. Prom\nBrandon he went to Virden, Man., in\n1884, where he entered into partnership\nwith with E. A. Holmes in the grain\nbusiness.\nThey erected an elevator at Har-\ngrave. In 1898 Mr. Caulfield moved to\nthe Boundary, when that district was\nobtaining prominence through, mining\ndevelopments. Opening business in\nthe hardware line, at Greemvood, he\nsoon became actively identified with\nevery movement for community betterment and was deservedly popular. His\nbusiness was later merged in*that of\nthe Russell, Law, Caulfield Co.\nIt was in Greenwood that Mr. Caulfield became interested in mining-. He\nwas the first president of the Providence Mining Co., and a member of\nseveral mining syndicates.\nWhen he came to Victoria in 1907\nand purchased a residence in the James\nBay section of the city this interest in\nmining remained keen and he associated himself with numerous ventures-\nin the way'of prospecting- and development syndicates, At the. time of his\ndeath he was vice-president of the\nGabbro Copper Mines, Ltd., and a\ndirector of the Silver Tip Mining\nDevelopment Co.\nHe was possessed of a very genial,\nkindly disposition and in his business\ndealings w.is the very soul of honor.\nHis many friends will learn of his\ndeath with fhe greatest regret.\nHe is survived by his widow, two\nnieces and two nephews. The nieces\nare Mrs. Jack Long, of Toronto, and\nMrs. Charles Pierce, of Oshawa. The\nnephews are Rev. Father Frank Caulfield, of Toronto, and Mrs. P. J.

George, in Windsor Castle, and\nthe boy choristers of Westminster Abbey, accompanied by thc\nVery Rev. the Dean pf Windsor, Dr. A.V.lhiillic chaplain to the\nKing; Rev. Edmund H. Fellowcs, director of thc. choir of\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdSt. George's Chapel; and Sydney H. Nicholson, organist of\nWestminster Abbey, and Master of the Choristers, is made\nwith the special approval of His Majesty (he King. The\nvisit of the choir which is now touring Canada from Frei.e-\nricton to Vancouver and return, on the All-Red C.P.R. route\nis more than a mark of inter-Empire courtesy; it is a gesture\nthat should do much to * help the fuller realization of possessions common to Canada ancl Great Britain.\nThe choir is. here under the auspices of thc National\nCouncil of Education, which since its inception in 1919 has\ncontinually emphasized the importance of the place of music\nin Education. This tour is essentially a part of thc Council's programme designed to stimulate public interest in\nmusic as one of the most powerful influences in thc life of\n. both the individual and the nation.\nThe Choristers from Westminster Abbey and St. George's\nChapel, to sing their way through Canada without fee or\nrecompense of any kind except thc applause thcy will gain,\nhave a history going back to a day when fhe great-grandfather\nof Columbus was a humble Genoese, watching boats sail out\nand believing that if they went too far thcy might topple over\nthe edge of the world. So Canada must feel comparatively\nyoung in the knowledge that the soft-footed Indian-was still\nemperor of the prairie, when the choristers first sung to thc\norder of Edward III in the chapel of St George at Windsor.\nThe glory of the Dominions is in thcir future, but England's greatest glory is in the long story that runs back through\nthe centuries, and that story is told ajmost completely in thc\nhistories of Westminster Abbey and St. George's Chapel of\nwhich these visitors are the ambassadors.\nIt is interesting to think of thc three parallel scenes.\nEdward III, creating the Order of the Garter in St. George's\nChapel, Columbus still unborn and his great-grandfather\nperhaps sewing sails in the seaport of Genoa, Canada still in\nthe haze of tlie undiscovered. Ancl while these two latter\nscenes change dramatically, thc choristers of St. George's\nhave still gone on with their services, symbolizing the chivalry\nand honor of the twenty-six Knights of the Garter. The\nGentlemen of St.\" George's and the boys of Westminster\nvisiting Canada number twenty in all, the eight choristers or\nlay clerks of the Chapel at AVindsor are those who sing the\nevening and morning services in the chapel; and in the \"more\nprivate services associated with the life of the Crown and the\nOrder of the Garter. Thcy also provide the music in the\nPrivate Chapel when Their Majesties are in residence at\nWindsor Castle.\nThe Dean of Windsor, Dr. A. V. Baillie, who will give\nlectures during the tour, on Windsor Castle, the Chapel of\nSt. George ancl Westminster Abbey, is one of the outstanding\nfigures in thc ecclesiastical life of England. He is the godson of Queen Victoria and a nephew of Lord Elgin, former\nGovernor-General of Canada. In addition to being chaplain to the King, he is also Registrar of the Order of the\nGarter.\nDr. Edmund H. Fellowes will lecture on Elizabethan and\nEnglish Church music. He is the foremost living authority\non music of the Tudor period, as witness his monumental\nedition of the English Madrigals which he has completed in\n36 volumes.\n_ As organist of Westminster Abbey, the choirs of Mr.\nNicholson havc been an inspiration, not only to the habitual\nworshippers at the^ Abbey, but also to. the vast body of\nvisitors to that shrine from all over the'world. He'is the\nauthor of \"British Songs for British Boys.\" During this\ntour he will conduct\"a number, of concerts, especially for\nScouts ancl Guides in which Scout music will largely figure.''\nCanadians are therefore given an unique opportunity to\nhear the best of English church and Old English part music,\nwhile a standard of excellence is reached in choral singing,\nthat is probably unexcelled ia any part of the world.\n0 For Sale\nA quantity of good timothy and\ncloverhay, $16.00 per ton in the\nstack or mow.
