It Is The Spontaneous Tribute
Of The Members In Recognition Of Your Many Fine Qualities As A Companion,
And To Mark Our Appreciation Of Your Efforts To Make Our Meetings
Agreeable.
The success and pleasure of the many winter tramps were in no small
measure due to the bright and
Cheerful manner you always displayed in
encouraging and enlivening the journey, and thus your impromptu songs at
our place of meeting, on the route, were inimitable, and were, we assure
you, thoroughly enjoyed. These pleasant and invigorating snow-shoe rambles
and entertainments will ever remain a green spot in our memories.
That the Quebec Snow-Shoe Club may long continue to enjoy the benefit and
influence of your agreeable company is the heartfelt desire of us all.
R. HARCOURT SMITH,
President.
HARRY WOODS,
Secretary.
14th March, 1881.
The locket and chain which were presented to Mr. A. Holloway were made by
Mr. G. Seifert, the locket having upon it a pair of crossed snow-shoes and
tuque with a monogram of the club beautifully raised on the one side, and
on the back, were engraved the following words: "Presented to Mr. Holloway
by the members of Q. S. S. C., 24th March, 1881." The address was
handsomely illuminated by the Nuns of the Good Shepherd Convent, and
reflects great credit upon them for the artistic manner in which it is got
up.
