Tax talk on King Canute and a bridge toll
A reader letter discusses taxation beliefs sparked by a British motorist who refused a 12 cent bridge toll claiming the tax dates to 1023 under King Canute. The writer argues taxes persist beyond origin and muses on future levies, then notes a bear-hunting trip by J A Chambers, Mrs. J S Chambers, and Charles Kinman in Alberta with bear catches and travel details.
