Summary

Description
English: Recorded on 'The Ottawa Journal' (27 Jul 1904) the following words were spoken by the 12th Earl of Dundonald before his departure from Canada.

"Men of Canada, Keep both your hands on the Union Jack!"

"I thank you and through you all those who are beyond my voice for this great testimony of friendship. It is more than I had any right to expect. I can say that I leave Ottawa and its people with the deepest regrets. What more can I say of the people of Ottawa, and indeed of the people of Canada, than that they were friends to me in my so-called prosperity and in my adversity. For every friend that I previously had a thousand others came forward. I would not be human if under these circumstaces I did not look with love and affection upon Canada and its people, and wherever in future my lot may be cast my thought and my actions will be guided by this feeling, which time will not be able to efface, and with these words, Gentlemen, I bid you farewell."
