Historic Mission Of St. Cuthbcrt - At St. Theresa's, Baldwin”: Road

Four year: after the emigration to Fort Augustus. Prince Edward Island, of a number of the parish- ioneri of Father Moynngh. pastor of Donagh. Ireland. a man Jiamed James Trainer, agent for Father John MacDonald of Glenaladale, went over to Ireland and collect- ied. chiefly in County Monaghan two shipioads of people, who slii ad from Belfast in the "Cunnin- bruck" and the "Agitator" early in the spring of 1&9 and landed in Charlottetown in May of that year. some of these people settled among their friends in Fort Aug- ustus, some in Township Sixty- Five. -others in Span-ow'i Road. Montague. and Johnston's River.

Many who at first settled in Fort Augustus moved to the dis- trict known as Baldwin's Rold, so called from the farm of I. Tip- perary man. named Thomas Bald- win. who was the first settler in the district. Here. a few years later, they were joined by Francis Curran. Patrick Bradley. Peter Mc-. Quaid, John McQuaid and Andrew Campbell, who came out from Ire- land in 1841 in the "Margaret Pollock" and who. with many oth- crs,, took up land on the Mont-

This church was placed under thel invocation of St. Cuthhert. It was cruciform in shape and was built by a man named Barrett. The first presbytery of Baldwin's Road was built several years later than this church. its erection was super- lniontleti by Rev. James Phelan. 0 I C

in 1575. the church built by Father Mcliityre was replaced by an elegant structure erected when Rev. Angus MacDonald was in charge of the mission. In 1879, during ii violent snow storm ac- rompanied by a strong north- west gale, this fine church was blown down. to the great dis- tress of the worthy print and all the parishioners. The followinginc- count of the catastrophe is taken from the parish register: "On February 22nd, 1579, St. CuLhbert's church was blown down ci-id completely destroyed, to our great loss and nffliction. We had to consider then. as far as we could, what was to be done in order to get some place in which to a semble the people for Divine Ser ce. We had no money, no church, and the pariah was 31,500 in debt. We cannot forget the afflicted appearance of the church grounds and the parish generally on the day and week after the church was blown down. "The parishioners showed a good spirit and were willing to do the best they could. but what had they to work on, in regard to money or temporal and worldly matter? Nothing whatever. We had. how- ever. our confidence in God which required strengthening, and our courage and earnestness, which also needed strength and improve- ment. Pastor and people then concluded to build up a tempor- nry structure to answer the pur- pose of 1! church. Every man in the parish agreed to give eight days' work. We hired two or three men to superinteiid. and from the wreck of the fallen church we put up a plain, cheap building which answered the pur- pose of I church for iiix years. St. Cuthberts was blown down in the first week of Lent; we had Mass in our new church on Palm Sunday." .
