"T had heard that there was some kind of'memorial to him there, but in all of the times I've passed through Schreiber, I've never seen it," said Coo in an interview from his Kingston home. The book he is writing will be a gift for every passenger on the Royal Canadian, a luxury train being planned by Sam Blyth of Blyth and Company of Toronto.
