Kibitzer's Corner
Nov-21-17  Larryfyffe: There is a big mistake here....you're mixing up the older J Ken Macdonald for whom I did research for; he's a correspondence player- with the much younger Jonathan MacDonald, a New Brunswick OTB player whom I personally know.
Nov-21-17  Larryfyffe: By the way, my research reveals, unknown up to this time, that the Colpitts Trophy was donated by millionaire Harry McLean and named after a partner of his in the railway construction business.
Nov-22-17  Larryfyffe: Correction: The note above refers to the Wheaton Trophy for the New Brunswick Championship, donated by Harry McLean and named after Andy Wheaton (not Colpitts), a business partner of McLean.
Nov-25-17  Larryfyffe: Page biography is now corrected. Good work.
