Sir Edward Wentworth Beatty was the fourth Chancellor of Queen's, serving from 1919-1923. He is much better known to Canadians, however, as the man who was President of the Canadian Pacific Railway for 25 years. Born in Thorold, Ontario on October 16, 1877, Beatty was the son of Henry Beatty and Harriet Powell. Beatty attended the University of Toronto, from which he obtained a B.A. in 1898, and then studied law at Osgoode Hall.
