"Alfred Waddington came to the Province in 1858; he resided in
Victoria for some years where he acquired some property on Yates St.
and Waddington Alley, which was named after him. He soon devoted
his attention to the Bute Inlet route believing that to be the
proper route for the Canadian Pacific Railway and across Seymour
Narrows."
