The leading merchants and business men Wightman, P. Kelly, Macdonald Bros. & Co., D. G. Cameron, Beer & Sprague, D. Forbes and D. McLeod. All these have large mercan- tile establishments, and ship immense quantities of produce, >Mr. John Bell has a fine stove and tinware store. Messrs. ©. D. Poole, P. Keith, A. McQuinn, W. Mec- Leod and Mrs. Johnson ,deal in groceries; and Edward Parkman, watchmaker. There are two wood drug stores, J. T. - Robinson and }’.G. Fraser. The former establish- ment compares favorable with your city drug stores. This village has two doctors -Drs. Robertson and Martin; also Dr. Gordon, dentist. There are also two good hotels, kept by J. J. McDonald, and James Campbell. Mrs. A. McDonald and Mrs. Sutherland keep private boarding-houses. There are two large carriage building es- tablishments at this place,—Messrs. Me- Lean and Fraser. McLean & Son, as the firm is now styled, ‘deserve more than a passing notice. ‘The building is 30x60 feet, three stories high, with an extension 30x40 feet, witd blacksmith shop attached, to- gether with paint shop, show rovin, dry room, ete., with modern improvements in all departments, with telephone connection from the oftice toseveral parts of the buildings. Mr. McLean has been in the business over twenty-five years, and has an extensive trade throughout the country, and employs only geod mechanics. His son, John H. McLean, now of the firm, is a master painter. Mr. J. Martin has no superior ‘i this section as a blacksmith ; the same may be said of the carpenters. Mr. R. N. Edmonds, plasterer, dves a fair business. Messrs. J. Gillis, Martin & Nelson, Wm. Vanldestine and Joseph Robertson are

McLeod has a neat and attractive barber shop here. Poole & Thompson, lumber dealers, do a good business. D. McLeod & Sons are tanners. The branch store of the Charlottetown Woolen Co., established here, dues atthriving business under the management of Mr. M. W. Nelson, who has a large assortment of Island manufac- tured cloths, flannels, etc. Among the carpenters and builders are J. Murphy, W. Taylor, and George Dewar. D. McKay, M. Lamont and J. McRae are boot and shoe makers; Mr. McKay also has a tan- nery. Mr. L. McLean, merchant tailor and clothier does a good business in his line, and always employs some hands. Mr. D. McLeod and A. Beaton also seem to do a fair business. Among the dress and cloak- makers here are Miss Stewart, Miss Mc- Laren, Miss Green and the Misses Camp- bell. D. L. McKinnon, furniture dealer, has a large stock of goods in his line. Mr. John McMillan deals in pianos, organs, sewing machines, etc

Mr. Joseph Warren is a butcher and dealer in cattle. Mr. Bruce deals largely in coal, flour, lime, ete. Mr. Joseph Mc- Neill, mail driver, carries a daily mail to and from Cardigan. George Whitman, Ksq., is building a finely modeled vessel) of about 150 tons register. The vessel will be schooner-rigged, and loaded here. She is built under inspection, to class Al at English Lloyds, and will be launched in a few weeks, The spars, which are of white pine, are 80 feet long, and considered by those competent to judge to be ‘‘beauties.” Mr. Angus McDonald (Garahelia) is fore- man. He is a veteran master-builder, and is remarkably active for a gentleman of his years. He has been foreman for over forty years. There are five churches in this vil- lage, viz., Presbyterian, Catholic, Metho- dist, Baptist and Disciples. Rev. W. H. | Spencer is pastor of the Presbyterian, Rev. William Phelan of the Catholic, Rev. John Goldsmith of the Methodist, Rev. J. J. Skinner of the Baptist, and Rev. O. B. Emery of Disciples Church. Some of the churches here are imposing structures, and reflect credit on all concerned. The ut- most good will and harmony prevail among ail denominations, and often the clergy, as well as the laity, speak from one platform for the general weal.

The post oftice here is centrally located, and is a fine structure of brick and stone. The custom house oflice is also in this

This building is in a desirable lo- cation, sume distance from the principal istreet, and fronting the river, with ample playground, etc. Wallace D.. Mcintyre is principal; James L. McDonald 2nd depart- ‘ment; Samuel Mutch, 3rd department; Miss Annie McDonald, Asst. 3rd depart- ment; Thomas L. Smith, 4th depart- ment. The fourth department is in a se- parate building on the south side of the river, and, like the other departments, is ably conducted. The attendance for the quarter ending Sept. 30th, 1889, was 182. There is a library in connection with this school, clock and bell, suspended to a post, purchased by the funds from the proceeds of concerts and entertainments given at intervals in the hall over the school.

Mr. Samuel Mutch, a veteran in the profession, commenced teachng at Mon- tague thirty-six years ago. From that time up to the present he has taught in bat four schools, three of them for twe differ- ent periods, making an average of 8 yexrs in each school. It is to be regretted that, owing to ill health, he intends to retire shortly. Mr. McDonald, of the second de- partment, and Miss McDonald, assistant -in the third department, are also spoken of as efficient teachers. The trustees of this school are William C. White, Secy., John J. McDonald and D. M. Campbell. The teachers speak in glowing terms of these gentlemen for valuable assistance rendered in different ways in fostering the interests of education.

Some of the mercantile establishments of Montague would be a credit to a town or city. There are also some very large ware- houses. Mr. P. Kelly, for instance, has one 200 feet long, and about 50 feet wide. There are many fine private residences at and around this place, many of which will

Folk-Lore.

GEORGE F, Owen, Esq., of Cardigan, in recent issues of THe Examiner, has sug- gested the formation of a club or associa- tion for the purpose of collecting and pre- serving, among other matters of histor- ical bearing for future reference, the scattered traditionary folk lore in prose and verse, still lingering in the recollection of the immediate descendants of the pioneers of the various settlements throughout the Island.

Mr. Owen has made some tenative efforts in this behalf during the past two years and succeeded in collecting a good deal of really interesting matter of the kind described

—upon whom he made personal calls in pursuance of his labor of luve. Facts and incidents drawn from the family history and experiences of the early settlers, well

cite the interest of cultivated readers, have time and again appeared in

may be well to bear in mind that the class principally referred to in Mr. Owen's plea- sant sketches laid the true foundations of all our material prosperity. The moral in- fiuence they exerted lies also at the root of whatever excellence of sucial organization our community can boast. They built our earlier schools and churches, and reared the men who now conduct three-fourths of the local professional practice, and also regulate our public affairs in both branches of the Legislature.

In the various attempts at historical and narrative of which our tight little Island has formed the subject, from the time John MacGregor published his celebrated history of the British Provinces down to Campbell's effort in that direction, while Imperial Governors, land agitators, and other pro- minent personages received a good deal more attention thin they often deserved, the real makers of our enduring history have been almost entirely overlooked.

pointment at its sudden collapse. Had the promoters of the undertaking kept to gether and extended its operations so as t include schools and schoolmasters beyond the precincts of the city, a salutary infiu- ence would be exerted among the more ad- vanced pupils attending these schools, and the foundation perhaps laid for a higher and purer literature than is gathered at least trom political platforms or those “swarmeries” of the populace who meet to witness the fleetness of horses and dis- cuss the pedigrees of famous sires and dams. | So far, the voice from King’s County appears to be regarded by the literary scribes of the classic City of the Three Tides as the voice of one crying in the wil- derness. They have, one and all, stood aloof, refusing to come to his baptism.

Let him not despair. His work, if he persevere in good faith, will one day be crowned with success. Sooner or later the memory of the founders of our little Island State is destined toadoin the pages of a not inconsiderable volume of British-American history. And Fame, with her trumpet, as she passes in her capricious rounds along the banks of the Cardigan, perhaps a hun- dred years hence, will inscribe on her tablets, not the names of Imperial fune- tionaries, communistic escheaters, and par- tisan hunters after p'ace, pudding or pre- ferment, nor the servile scribes who clung to their skirts and offered the incense of an insincere flattery at their too frequeutly tarnished shrines, but those of the stalwart workers who, with stout heart and strong arm, subdued the giants of the woods and transformed their tangled mazes into culti- vated, fruitful fields, dotted with the com- fortable homes of an intelligent and thrifty |population. The names also of the now struggling and humble pioneers of a rising provincial literature, who have lent a duti ‘ful hand in rescuing the memory of the fathers from neglect, will find due record amid the emblazonry of her scroll. i.
