[47] The old homestead, successively owned by Messrs. Timothy H. Dunn and
Joseph Shehyn, M.P.P., and now by Mr. J. O. Vallieres, was erected in 1812
for Capt. Benjamin LeMoine, Canadian Militia, the writer's father.
[48] A detailed sketch of this great educational institution, descriptive
of its origin and constitution, galleries of paintings, museum, library
etc., appears at page 361 of "Quebec, Past and Present," to which the
reader is referred. We purpose to note the changes which have taken place
since the publication of that work only.
[49] In 1808, among other notabilities on the Rue des Pauvres, we
find that, as appears by a notarial deed of transfer, in the Woolsey
estate, before J. Plante, N.P., 28th March, 1808, a grand old relic of the
Canadian noblesse, la Baronne de Longueuil, the widow of the late
Captain David Alexander Grant, of the 94th regiment - to whom she had been
united in wedlock at Quebec, on the 7th May, 1781. She then dwelt there in
a house belonging to her husband's uncle, the Honorable William Grant (who
had died at Quebec in 1805), though her usual abode was on the picturesque
family property - on the Island of St. Helen, opposite Montreal.
