time to get out of this part of
the country. Newspapers keep
a fellow pretty busy.”

But that may be changed now,
allows the veteran reporter. It
is just likely, he says, that he
will be walking along Granville
Street in Vancouver some day.

“Just for a short trip, of
course.”

Born in the seaside village
of St. Martins, New Brunswick,

| Bill took his first schooling in

Seattle in 1887. Previous to this,
he lived with his parents in
Butte City, i
Helena, Missoula and the Bitter
Root Valley in the same state.

The family returned to New
Brunswick in 1888 over the Ca-
nadian Pacific Railway route
through Vancouver, Calgary Re-
gina and east.
BOER WAR VETERAN

When war broke out in South
Africa in 1899, the 22-year-old
youth who had not yet given

Canada’s first
1,000 men. Thorughout the Boer
War he served in G Company
under Col. W. D. Otter.

After recuperating from en-
teric fever in an English hos-
pital Bill Raymond sailed .for
home. He recalls one character-

| istic of the English.

“A complete stranger there,
but I made many good friends.
They called me ‘Yankee’ how-
ever, because I said ‘I guess’
instead of ‘I say, there.”

On his return to Saint John,
New Brunswick while wonder-
ing what to do for a living,
Raymond found he had unwit-
tingly became a war correspon-
dent during his absence.

| BECOMES REPORTER

While in South Africa, hay
mond wrote a few letters home.

City editor of the Saint John)

morning daily lived in the same
apartment as did the Raymonds
and borrowed the letters for
publication. :

When the _ soldier
home, said the city editor: “Why
not join the newspaper?” And
Bill did.

That was the start. From the
Saint John Telegraph the re-
porter moved to the Montreal
Herald five years later, then on
to Saskatoon to join the Daily
Capital which subsequently be-
came part of the Star-Phoenix

A few weeks after his arrival

in the prairie city, he read a
jreport that a huge water tank
on top of the Montreal Herald
| building crashed through the
roof and through the editorial
rooms, Casualties were men at
|whose side Raymond had re-
; cently been working.

| In Prince Rupert there are not
|many who do not know of Bill
| Raymond. From his initial start
jin the city’s first newspaper, the
| Evening Empire, “Ray” as he is
| often called became the paper's
editor.

John Houston sold the Em-
|pire to the late S. M. Newton
| who served here as mayor for
;many years. Newton erected the
| building on Third Avenue which
| served as the Empire office un-
| til the Prince Rupert Daily News
| bought the paper in 1947.

Due to illness, Newton sold
|} out to three of his employees in
| 1928, one of whom was Ray-
;mond, the editor. Other two

2.00| enlisted and went overseas with| Franks and S. D. Macdonald
Following the death of his two}

| partners, Raymond carried on
|for a couple of years until H. G.

| ——

T. Perry bought the Empire as-|
sets in 1947.

But that, of course, was not!
the end of Raymond’s news- |
paper career. He came to the}
News—the opposition for many
years—and began writing his!
column, Ray Reflects and Rem-
inisces.

And he’s still going to keep on |
writing it with the assurance |
that many of his readers are
very happy to continue reading
it.

Once a newspaperman, always |
@ newspapérman — that’s Bill |
Raymond. }
