two targets out of 13 and Rowan FitzGerald is the only 
     
     gunner to hit half of the targets, conditions, with 
     
     either Hobkirk or everyone, were not normal. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The annual meeting was uneventful, with the usual 
     
     reading of minutes, election of new club officers and 
     
     the annual re-assessment of members (this year it 
     
     would be $2.00). The report of the occasion in 
     
     Saturday's Daily Patriot was brief: 
     
    
   
   
    
     "Ihe Annual Meeting of the Belvidere Gun Club 
     
    

    
     was held on Thursday last. The following 
     
    

    
     officers were elected for the ensuing year: 
     
    

    
     Dr. Blanchard, President; W. Hobkirk, Vice- 
     
    

    
     President; J. A. Longworth, Secretary/Trea-— 
     
     a 
     
    
   
   
    
     surer. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The day following the annual meeting the first 
     
     snow arrived on Prince Edward Island making 
     
     Charlottetown streets very muddy and almost 
     
     impassable. The next Saturday, following a second 
     
     snow storm, nine shooters arrived at Rowan 
     
     FitzGerald's. While the host put his storm windows 
     
     on, Fred Hyndman was hitting seven of ten targets to 
     
     take the top prize. Ernest Blanchard was second, and 
     
     Bill Hobkirk went home after hitting only two of his 
     
     first six shots. 
     
    
   
   
    
     With Falconwood gone as the prime shooting site, 
     
     most of the events were being held at the home of 
     
     Arthur Peters on Admiral Street. Apart from the trip 
     
     to Mellett's, the only fall shoot not held at Peters' 
     
     was on December lst at John Longworth's estate on the 
     
     St. Peter's Road, currently the site of Birchwood High 
     
     School. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Once again the biggest shoot in December was the 
     
     now popular Boxing Day event, where they shot through 
     
     most of the afternoon, completing two team matches and 
     
     a short doubles contest. It is interesting to note 
     
     that, since they had purchased the trap four years ago
