‘ecalling E. Mallandaine

A Brief Sketch Of An Old Timer On Salt Spring Island

All Rights Reserved
By WINNIFRED FE. HILLIAR, Beaver Point, B.C.

Being blest (?) by an “insatiable” curiosity like Kip-

ling’s elephant’s child, people and places are of unending

interest to the writer. So would I speak of an old timer on

Salt Spring island or “‘Armiral’s Island’? — caressed by the
s@a.

Salt Spring Island is now well known as a pleasure spol,
but how many residents know that St. Mary’s Lake was
known as Mallandaine’s Lake in honor of E. Malladaine, an
early pre-emptor on the north end of the island facing Trin-
comali Channel?

.

That the salt springs from which our island gets its
present name were also named for him. that that portion

of the island was then called GrantviHe? The Begg settle-
ment adjoined Mallandaine’s land.
Gerryborough was another name for this vicinity.

and Pimberys.

Doubtless many old timers remember the Mallandaines
later years attending the services in the old wooden
structure of Christ Church Cathedral, where old Godden
was the verger and the young sons, Edward and Charles
Mallandaine, the latter who became an enthusiastic yachts-
man, also other members of the family.

Charles’ sloop-rigged vessel fitted with a gas engine
for windless hours accommodated five persons in the cabin
and was a lovely sight as she sailed the clear waters around
Victoria and the Gulf Islands. Once she beached herseif in
Trincomali Channel and after Charles Mallandaine’s death
became the property of Bert Roe, Pender Island.

In later years the Mallanlaine property on Salt Spring

> WHAT | 18 1 A VICTORY BOND?

A VICTORY BOND is the promise of the Dominion of Canada ‘to
“repay in cash.the full. face value of the Bond at the time stipulated,
with half-yearly interest at the rate of 3% per annum until maturity. °
A Victory Bond’is. the safest investment in Canada. The entire -
resources of the Dominion stand behind it. Canada has been issuing ,
bonds for 75 years, and has never failed to pay. every dollar of principal

and interest,

A Victory Bond is an asset: more readily converted into cash than

any other security.

Raw Sugar Supply Depends

On Shipping Situation

‘As applications for home canning: sugar pour into
ration boards across Canada, the ration administration
issues a word of caution to women to exercise every care in:
“me their requirements.

H. Bell, reyional superintendent of. rationing: for
h, Gs says that the raw sugar supply depends on the ship-
ping situation,

No.one knows what ships we will have allotted,
Ball,

‘Vteis the duty of every citizen, therefore, to conserve
as much ax possible. The quantity of sugar to be available
and the supplies to be maintained, depend entirely upon
the ship situation,

" says
Mr,

“Any upsurge in U-Boat warfare with a resultant sink-
ing of tonnage, can change the picture very quickly, Any
allolne nt for canning purposes will be varied by this fact.”
