  • A History of the Town of Baie-D'urfé
    July 1977, A HISTORY OF THE TOWN by Thomas Roche Lee, Mayor of Baie-D'Urfé OF BAIE D'URFE from 1957 to 1961 © Town of Baie-d'Urfé FOREWORD Uniquely fortunate is the community which has in its midst one with a lively interest in its origins, in its history, and in its present. Doubly fortunate is the community whose historian and chronicler is both imaginative as to opportunity, and has had the experience of being its mayor. Those of the past, with the research that permitted them to be remembered, those of the present who also helped make this greatly blessed piece of geography, Baie d'Urfé, and those who follow, all owe much to Tommy Lee. Tommy re-identified the Town with its Urfé origins. He duplicated the historical Alcock-Brown flight from Newfoundland to Ireland and England, he hedge-hopped and railway trained his way across this great country, and chronicled his experiences. He served eminently as our mayor. He raised his arm heavenward with me one Saturday morning, tracing in the sky the potential magnificence of a Centennial flagpole one hundred feet high. Of this great stuff is Tommy Lee. I am honoured by this association with Tommy Lee's story of this great place where I have been privileged to live. A. Clark Graham, Mayor July 12, 1977 A HISTORY OF THE TOWN OF BAIE D'URFE, QUEBEC BY THOMAS R. LEE The town of Baie d'Urfé had its beginnings in 1686 when Francois Saturnin Lascaris d'Urfé, Marquis de Baugé, a French missionary of the Sulpician order, established a mission on what is known today as Caron Point.

  • Behaviour and Attitudes of Morgan Arboretum Users ABSTRACT
    ..~ . - -, Behaviour and Attitudes of Morgan Arboretum Users ABSTRACT Jack Inhaber Department of Woodlot Management Macdonald College of McGill University BEHAVIOUR AND ATTITUDES OF SUBURBAN FOREST RECREATIONISTS IN THE MORGAN ARBORETUM, QUEBEC This study was conducted in the Morgan Arboretum, a private suburban recreational forest.. It examines the behaviour and attitudes of recreationists toward forest environments in general and Morgan Arboretum in particular. There were no significant differences in either attitudes or behaviour between members and non-member users of the Arboretum. There was a positive correlation between group size and time spent during most of the year. In winter, however, the relation was negative. Walking was the main activity of Morgan Arboretum us~rs. The Arboretum was used as a haven for temporary solitude not generally found in other urban or suburban areas. Users claimed to appreciate an untouched environment and yet the Arboretum was regularly harvested. As aesthetic quality increased the size of groups increased but the number of recreation hours did note There was no relation between aesthetic appreciation and recreation hours. The Arboretum was thought to be nicest in fall but yet 42% of recreation hours occured in spring. ii ABREGE Jack Inhaber Department of Wood1ot Management Macdonald Co11ege of McGi11 University COMPORTEMENT ET ATTITUDES DES USAGERS DE LA FOREST DE BANLIEUE DANS L'ARBORETUM MORGAN, QUE BEC Cette étude a été conduite dans l'Arboretum Morgan, une forêt privée de la banlieue, utilisée à des fins de récréation.
