EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back in time to August 1881. This historical artwork by Sydney Prior Hall depicts a momentous journey filled with hope and anticipation. In this scene, we witness a group of intrepid travelers aboard the SS Caspian as they embark on their voyage from Newfoundland to Quebec. The passengers include emigrants seeking new opportunities, seasoned sailors like Captain Smart and Captain Thompson, and even a veteran cod banger. Their faces reflect both excitement and trepidation as they set sail towards an unknown future. The presence of the Marquis of Lorne adds an air of prestige to this expedition. As Governor General of Canada at the time, his involvement signifies the importance placed on exploring and developing the vast lands of the Great North-West. Amidst towering waves crashing against their vessel, these brave souls cling onto hope for a better life in Prince Edward Island or beyond. The image captures not only their physical journey but also symbolizes their dreams and aspirations for prosperity in uncharted territories. This engraving serves as a reminder of our collective human spirit - one that seeks adventure, embraces challenges, and dares to venture into unfamiliar realms. It invites us to ponder upon our own journeys in life while appreciating those who came before us with courage etched upon their faces.
