Toronto Daily Mail: Saturday 24th October 1891

In his address to the grand jury of St. George’s Bay announcing that he had been empowered to investigate fishermen’s claims for compensation from the Imperial Government Sir Robert Pinsent, of the Newfoundland Supreme Court, said: “I can only say, as I told you before, that, slow though the process may be, in the face of difficulties and complications into which it is difficult for you to enter, protection and relief will, I am convinced, yet come from the great Mother Land, our Gracious Sovereign, her advisers and her Parliament so that the rich and varied industrial resources of this part of the colony may be placed in the position for which God and nature manifestly designed them.” But as a St. John’s correspondent points out, the fishermen have been receiving similar promises and assurances of relief for years and hope deferred is making their hearts sick. Lord Knutsford’s Act, the fruit of the past three years’ agitation, has brought them no nearer than before to a solution of their difficulties.
