Excerpt from In Memoriam: William George McIntyre, Born Clearwater, Man., 19th June, 1888, Died Vimy Ridge, 9th April, 1917In October, 1911, he entered Queen's University. This he had for some years been resolved to do, had indeed made it the lode-star of my life, but for a time lack of the necessary money kept him back. Archie came to his assistance with a loan. This he was for a time doubtful about accepting, as his brother was little better off than himself, and was also set on coming to Queen's. But the probability of making enough in the first summer vacation to repay him induced him to accept, and he was able to write: We shall bunk together at Queen's, as you say. Old boy, I feel very large, very spirited, when I think of it. The Mater will be very proud of us. Dear mother! She is always proud of our successes, always solicitous. Of our welfare, always sympathetic in our failures.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
