Great excitement was created at Riverside Consolidated School a short time ago when it was announced that Mr. F. W. Sumner of Moncton had promised a school trip on the Shepody Navigation Company’s steamer, the Wilfred C. The day fixed for the excursion was Friday, June 12th. On the morning of that day, nearly all the pupils of the school, together with many of the older people interested in the school, assembled at the Riverside Wharf.
