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.

“Massachusetts sat waiting Mr. Lorings decision.... It was really the trial of Massachusetts. Every moment that she hesitated to set this man free, every moment that she now hesitates to atone for her crime, she is convicted. The commissioner on her case is God; not Edward G. God, but simply God.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)

Emblazoned on T-shirts, proclaiming the lateness
Of the hour, and indeed the sun slanted its rays
Through branches of Norfolk Island pine as though
Politely clearing its throat....”
