........This structure sits dead centre in Dominion's famous cemetery. Each day, for approximately one hour, its chimes peel out with a medley of traditional Canadian melodies -- mostly of maritime and French Canadian origins. In recent years there has been some dispute about whether this monument is worth the public funds for maintenance (its 1920's mechanism breaks down constantly). George is buried within 500 meters of the tower.

........This modest building was the home of Dominion's founder J. Morgan Smith. A man of considerable wealth and a little education. He opened this private library in 1881 and for a small fee anyone was allowed to borrow books. The books were from Morgan's own private collection. It would be another two decades before the city had a Public Library. The library exists today as more of a landmark than an active institution. The bulk of the collection is from the original stock, however select donations have enlarged it over the last century. Much of George Sprott's personal Artic library has found its way onto these shelves.

........One of Dominion's many private clubs. Though the club was originally opened with an eye to a membership of Polar adventurers, it has never really lived up to that ideal. Dominion has long flattered itself as Northern City but truthfully, like most Northern Ontario towns, it is much closer to the South than the North. Its membership is largely drawn from local business men and its functions are not much different than the usual Oddfellows hall. Still, it has a great bar and some terrific murals done in the 1930's. It goes without saying that George was a much admired member there.
