To the People of South Hull and Aylmer, whose generous hospitality I have richly enjoyed, during the past year, do I most heartily dedicate this work, telling of the past and present of their country. I would include in this dedication, another one who though not a Canadian, yet whose interest in his adopted land has made possible much of my work in Canada When I would have grown heart tired, his kindly Go on has ever given me re newed encouragement for further effort, and if my stories and descriptions of this beautiful country bring others to see and know of it, much must be credited to this young man, whose four years' energy has left its mark across the continent in vast works in manufactory of the building material of the future. It is therefore a pleasure to include, in the Dedication, the name of Joseph S. Irvin.
