The 32nd General Assembly of Prince Edward Island was in session from March 28, 1894 to June 25, 1897. The Liberal Party led by Frederick Peters formed the government.
In 1894, the Legislative Council was combined with the House of Assembly into a unicameral body known as the Legislative Assembly. An assemblyman and councillor was elected from each electoral district.

“A poets object is not to tell what actually happened but what could or would happen either probably or inevitably.... For this reason poetry is something more scientific and serious than history, because poetry tends to give general truths while history gives particular facts.”

“Daddy?
Thats another kind of prison.
Its not the prince at all,
but my father
drunkenly bent over my bed,
circling the abyss like a shark....”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Oh, a capital ship for an ocean trip,
Was the Walloping Window Blind;
No gale that blew dismayed her crew
Or troubled the captains mind.”
—Charles Edward Carryl (18411920)
“The shifting islands! who would not be willing that his house should be undermined by such a foe! The inhabitant of an island can tell what currents formed the land which he cultivates; and his earth is still being created or destroyed. There before his door, perchance, still empties the stream which brought down the material of his farm ages before, and is still bringing it down or washing it away,the graceful, gentle robber!”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
