Colonel
C.
W.
Peck,
V.C.,
D.S.O.,
arrived
here
today
Irom
his
home
In
Sidney,
Vancouver
Island.
A
pioneer
of
Skeena
and
Prince
Rupert,
holder
of
a
distinguished
war
record
and
a
former
federal
member
of
this
riding,
Col.
Peck
is
revisiting
the
north
after
an
absence
of
some
years,
to
look
up
old
friends
ana
renew
scenes
of
other
days.
Tomorrow
morn
ing,
in
company
with
Col,
S.
D.
Johnston,
M.C.,
V.D.,
he
will
leave
on
a
trip
along
the
river
and
through
central
British
Columbia.
On
the
outbreak
of
the
First
Great
War,
Col

then
in
the
brokerage
business
in
Prince

raised

after
the

attack
at
Ypres.
High
honors
came'
to
him.
He
won
the
Victoria
Cross,
the
D.S.O.
with
two
bars.
He
was
mentioned
five
times
in
despatches,
and
wounded
twice.
The
following
is

from
"The

liistory

Canadian
Expeditionary
Forced
"Few
except
those
who
came
in
close
contact
with
Col.
Peck
are
aware
of
his
picturesque
personality.
To
the
casual
observer
and
independent
citizen,
as
his
solid
frame
indicated,
he
would.
overcome
difficulties
wherever
he
might
meet
them.
All
cf
which
Is
true.
Col.
Peck
is
or
United
Empire
Loyalist
stock
which
bequeathed
sturdiness
and
independence
to
its
descendents
as
a
legacy,
and
many
times,
in
the
course
of
his
career,
did
he
have
to
rely
on
these
virtues
to
face
the
dangers
and
risks
of
pioneer
life
in
Eastern
Canada'
and
around
the
ocean

of
British
Columbia
where
his
subsequent
business
Interests
brought
him-.
But
underneath
these
characteristics
lies
an
Inner

With

Mother

while

the
sages
who
drew
their
inspira
tlon
from
these
sources,
and
gained
an
insight
into
the
drama
of
human
life.
Col.
Peck
is
at
home
with
his
Shelley
and
Keats.
He
can
quote
extensively
from
these
poets.
He
has
read
prac
tically
all
of
the
works
of
Dickens
and
Thackeray
and
revels
in
the
characters
portrayed
in
them
He
is
a
student
of
history
and
a
philosopher.
He
has
an
intense
liking
for
music.
As
for
soldiering
he
had
an
instinctive
liking.
Away
back
in
the
nineties
when
the
schools
of
Instruction
under
British
officers
were
in
full
swing
at
Toronto,
he
took
every
course
available
to
militia
men.
Whenever
business
conditions
permitted
he
gave
of
his
time
to
militia
work.
Col.
Peck
had
many
gifts
which
fitted
him
for
the
command
of
men.
What
endeared
him
most
to
those
who
served
under
him
was
his
devo

to

willingness
