Our story reverts to Alberton , where I was the rector. The day before Bishop Hackenley arrived at our rectory the float in the toilet in our bathroom broke. We had to tie it up with twine. The Alberton store keeper said he would have to send to Summerside for a replacement, which meant a delay of several days. So we had to tell the Bishop, "Please, sir, don't flush the toilet, we'll look after it!" Now, a day later, when Staff returned from Tyne Valley , he saw the Bishop's car was in his yard. The young lad met Staff , who said, with his big laugh, "I see the Bishop got here ahead of me!" The lad said, "Taint funny, Magee - the Bishop's in the bathroom!" Panic! Staff rushed up the stairs and banged on the bathroom door. "Yes?" came from the Bishop inside in his loud voice (he was famous for shouting in the pulpit). Staff said, "Please, sir, don't flush the toilet!" "My God ," groaned the Bishop, "What's wrong with you clergy here in Prince Edward Island ? I came all the way from Alberton for this!"

Teething Troubles One time, when Staff was at , about forty young people from the Anglican Young Peoples' Association groups on the Island, along with a few clergy, gathered at George DeBlois 's summer cottage at Stanhope for a week¬ end. Staff Tanton was among them. Staff loved to swim, and in his black bathing suit and black bathing cap, he looked like an enormous seal. He dashed down the beach ahead of all of us, calling out, "Come on," and plunged into the water. But as he got up he began to thrash around and look into the water and sputter. We thought he had suffered some kind of an attack! But as we got closer he pointed to his mouth, and then to the water, and we realised that his headlong plunge into the waves, and his shout "Come on," had dislodged his false teeth, which now rested in an unknown location on the bottom. Such a mishap would be unfortunate at any time. But that evening his girl friend, Connie Tufts , was due to arrive in for a visit. 67
