In June, 1883, Professor Moyse wedded Janet McDougall, the eldest
daughter of John Stirling of Montreal. Mrs. Moyse has been deeply
interested in a movement for providing playgrounds for children
in Montreal, her efforts in that direction being untiring, and
she is now a director of the Parks and Playgrounds Association.
Professor Moyse has been a close student of all the interesting
problems and significant questions of the day and absorption in
books has never made him neglectful of the duties and obligations
of citizenship. His social nature finds expression in his
membership in the Thistle Curling Club and University Club. He
has been characterized as “a highly cultured man who has had a
brilliant career as an educationist.”
GEORGE HAGUE.
Respected by all who know him, no man occupies a more creditable
position in banking circles than does George Hague of Montreal,
who for many years was prominently identified with the management
of important financial affairs. He has been equally well known
by reason of his active support of benevolent and philanthropic
objects and by his interest in phases of public-spirited
citizenship. He was born at Rotherham, Yorkshire, England,
January 13, 1825, a son of Mr. John Hague, and comes from an old
family of bankers, as some or other of his relatives have for
generations back been connected with the leading bank in the
town. Mr. Hague has passed the eighty-ninth milestone on life’s
journey and his career has been one of usefulness and honor.
