Usually somebody's daughter presents flowers to the Queen but this time premier of P.E.I. Walter Shaw hands a bouquet to Her Majesty. It was a busy day for Royal couple who dedicated $5;600;000 Fathers of Confederation Memorial buildings which commemorate Canada's birth. Visit is culmination of summer-long ceremonies which drew record number of tourists to the island province.
