Early Ghuroh History in P.E.|.

By Uncle Joe

Prince Edward Islanders had scant provisions for their sliml- ual wants when the Island was first settled by white people, and the Rev. Theophilus Desbrisay was the only Protestant clergyman foo‘ e number oi Yea“- DEEbYlEBY was appointed rector o1 the "Par- ish of Charlotte" by Royal war- rant bearing date of Sept 21, 1774. He came hers from England the following spring where he labor- ed until death ended his work in 1323.

Until the year 1790, the Roman Catholics had but one small church on the Island under supervision of that great missionary priest. Rev, Angus Mac-Euchern. Father MacEachern proved, himself a true leader of men and performed val- uable work in helping to better conditions among all classes and creeds, He resided at Savage Har- bor frcm where he carried 011 missionary work in this province. the Magdalene, Cape Breton and other sections oi the Maritimes. He became Bishop of Charlotte- town in 1321, founded St, And- rews College ln 103.1 and died in 1886.

In 1003, Dr. Kier came to this Island as a missionary under the auspices of the General Associate Synod or Scotland. I-le settled in Princetown where the first Pres- byterian Church was organized.

In 16f?! the Island got its first Methodist preacher 1n the person of Rev. Mr. Bulpit who came here frcirn the Mother Country, But little improvement was made un- der hls ministry, and there up- pears to have been considerable discord between his work and the work of the conference on the mainland,

The years between 1810 and 1830 brought. a new tide of imig- ration and a renewed effort was made by the different denomin- ations to speed the message of the gospel to the people who were struggling for existence amid the forests of the million acre Island. Brackley Point and vicinity svus settled between 1820-1820 by peo- ple of English blood, but no or-

ganized o-eligion took [Oim here until about 1832. Those early settlers n-ere so

taken up with the task of keep- ing the wolf from their doors that Sunday was just like any other clay in the week.

One of the youngsters was eleven years of age when the first Bible Christian missionary arrived in the district. The boy had never seen 1:1 minister nor heard u str- mon, and when he went to hear the missionary speak, his grand- dad took him aside and solemnly warned the lad not to he zilarmfd should he hear scme of the con- gregation shouting and sncarina. O11 the ‘Union Road, a Mr_ and Mrs, Abbott who had come out from Eingland were anxious to see their own church established in the district, and with this end in view sent a letter l0 the officials of the English voiiferncc pc-intinz out the urgent nccd of a spiritual adviser.

This letter of the Abboits re- sulted in the sending of Francis Metherall to the Island. He and his wife and their two children set sail frcm Plymouth on lh? 15th of September, 1801, but ow- ing to adverse weather conditions and the vessel springing a leak. the ships were obliged to return to Plymouth for repairs,

The following spring Metherall and his family again set out for the Island aboard the brig "Am- ethyst" and reached their destin- ation after a voyage of about two months. '

Reaching the Union Road from Bedeque was fraught with many difficulties and Metherall was forced to leave his wife and chil- dren behind while he footed it all the way to the home o-l the Ab- botts. The condition cf the roads were such that it took several days to cover the distance.

But the greatest hardship had to be met when the preacher rc- turned to Bedeque for his family. On the return trip the little party became lost in the woods and Mr. Metherall had to carry one of the children lu his arms. Then his wife. overcome by the journey. broke down and cried out hsr woes. Finally they came to the home of a Mr. Bryeuton, who conducted the party via a short path through the forest lo the residence of Mr. Abbott.

But Francis Metherall was not the man in be rllseoursgcsl by dif- ficulties, and after a short rest. he began his work of salvation. starting in the Abbott homo. Thus it came about that the early foundations of the churches in those districts were built.

llisousses ll. S. Military Position In Germany

(Editors Note’. This column is presented as an indication of American opinion on major world events).

By J. M. ROBERTS. Jr. Associated Press News Analyst BEEUJN, Sept. 22—-(AP)—Ba.ck

izr 1938-39 there was a growing conception in the United States that America's frontiers were in Europe—on the Rhine.

It would be a falsity to carry that conception too far in the present circumstances-to consider that the frontier of the United States is on the Elbe, in Berlin, on the Vlstula or even the Volga.

Her frontiers today are on the Allegheny, the Detroit, in the draftee training camps and in her aircraft factories.

The Ruhr industrial area which she is helping to revitalize for Etiropean recovery. the defence oi France for which the French are so afraid. the defence of her en-

pend not on what she has here. but on what she has in reserve if the Russians make a break.

I come to Germany wondering if United States authorities here were being shortsighted in not de- mending greater strength right now. I wondered whether the United States might not be re- building German industry merely to let Russia take it over. I won- dered. when General Clay said the American occupation army of 100.000 men was Europe's best guarantee against war, why 500,- 000 wouldn't be better?

A close-up view of the situat- ion is clsrlfying. There is s. point o! saturation for military prepar- edness here when it is considered against the background of the whole Allied program.

The United States is in no po- sition to put into Germany now an army which could face what- ever the Russians might throw in. If d-(defence) day comes again the outcome will depend on the mobilization of all Europe, not just on what America does.

In the meantime. n large Amer- ican army here would only com- plicate the effort to put Western Germany on a self-sustaining bas- is and make her a. contributor to the European Recovery Program. The Economic (Jo-operation Ad,- minisiration allocated 8110000000 for Germany in April—$~i0.000.000 for food and agriculture and $70.- 000.000 for industry. Up until late August only $22.000.000 had ar- rived. all food. which is just about the same amount consumed by the 100.000-man army during that period.

The experts ﬁgure it is better to make a ﬁrst-class army out of what; is here, cultivate military agreements with Allies and be prepared to throw in the real strength frc-m the United States —the strength of both industry and the new draft army.
