Original Toronto Star caption: The dust-filled air rings with merry cries; as high-spirited Quebec folk; waiting to see their majesties; playfully push each other down the hill. All was quiet here on that night in 1759 when General Wolfe and his small band of heroes climbed this very hill; from what is now Wolfe's Cove; to surprise the French.
