He main- tained the supreme authority of the Bible as a rule of life and con- duct. After his arrival in Lower piontugue by schooner in 1826. be preached his first sermon at At- kon’; Ferry in a barn. which is still in good repair- At this time ‘there were but primitive dwellihgs and small clearings along the shores and rv- ers. backed by a forest that stood almost unbroken in its Pfimevill grandeur. There were no roads- the only means of travel, by walk- ing or horseback, were slow. dan- ‘gerous and difficult. Sermons were preached in private homes. barns and on hillsides, until churches were built. As in the time of the Apostles. Mr. MacDonald carried no scriP nor purse and _made his abode wherever he might be. His zeal- ous labors were abundantly bles- sed in the conversion of many.

Pictured above is the second church erected on the same site. The old one was sold to Mr. Wil- liam MacKinnon. who rafted it down the river to Canoe Cove and converted it into a barn. As the congregation grew. the first church which was built 0n 18nd leased from Mr. Donald MacKay. (his grandson. Mr. Hector Mac- Kay, deeded the land to the church in 1928). became inadequate and the present imposing structure took its place in 1852. It is situat- ed on s wooded hill overlooking the DeSable River and is a land- mark for travellers both by land and by sea. The elders at this time were Messrs. Duncan Mathe- son, Archibald MacDougall. Char- les MacQuarrie, Archibald Mlb Alder, Neil Stewart. Donald Mac- Quarrie, Alexander MacKay and Donald MacKay. A second revival under his ministry began in 1858. By this time the field had Brown so large that it took three months to make a circuit of his charge. thus devoting four Sabbaths a year to each of his fourteen preaching stations, which were from Mur- ray Harbor in the east to Rich- mond Bay in the west and em- bracing the whole width. The present DeSable church has had few alterations, with the ex- ception of its being repaired and redecorated during the years. Orig- inally there had been a square tower but due to the efforts of Mrs. William MacDonald. it was changed to a spire similar to the present Cape Traverse church, and s Scotch Thistle added to its peak. Fifteen years ago the old pews were replaced by new ones under the supervision of Messrs. David and Alezt lzerguson. Within the church on the north side is the closed in high pulpit. old country style, to which the minister ascended by seven steps to deliverrhis sermons.

The present elders include Messrs. Stewart Inman. Harry MacNevln, William Gillis and John‘ MucQuarrie; and the trustees are Messrs. Archibald Shaw. Alfred Cameron and Stewart Inman. On August 16, 1845. Rev. Dr. Norman MacLeod, who had been chaplain to Queen Victoria for thirty-five years, preached in the DeSabie Meeting House to a large congregation. He and his uncle, Rev. J. MacGiivray. had been com- missioned by the Mother Church of Scotland to visit the congrega- tions throughout Canada. I I O After the death or‘ Rev. o. Mac- Donald, who had established four- teen churches with five thousand adherents. this congregation was cared for by Rev. James MacColl, who, after a few years. returned to Scotland. The old Kirk members of the Church of Scotland Synod of Nova Scotia and the ministering elders carried on the work of a pastor until 1875 whbn Rev. John .Goodwlll, a returned missionary from the Isle of Esperitu Santo in New Hebrides was sent to relieve. He remained for over forty years in a faithful and earnest ministry dllflfl! which time a third revival was experienced by the congrega- Ition. Church extension prospered richly so that‘ in 1890 it was neces- ‘sary to divide the field into three separate parishes, with inducted ministers. After Mr. Goodwil1's death, Rev. James MacDougall. an eloquent speaker, labored zealously and earnestly until his sudden pas- sing in 1922. His brother. Rev. Ewen MacDougall, B.D., who had been inducted into the eastern par- ish in 1908, took the oversight of this church as well. He faithfully carried on the work of his prede- cessors until 1937 when he receiv- ed the Higher Call. Rev. J. H. Bishop was the next pastor, but due to ill health he resigned in 1947 and was succeede’ by Rev. Horace MacEwen. the present preacher. eee Near the front door of the church is a beautiful lime tree. which was planted by Rev. James MacCoil. during his ministry. This Summer the north roof of the building was shlngled and it was difficult to remove the hand cut nails from the shingles of split red pine. which were the original ones on the church. A second cov- ering of cedar shingles had been added many years ago. Included among the visiting min- isters to this church were Rev- erends: Daniel MacLean, D. M. Campbell, E. C. Robertson, J. S.

The pulpit for inst- ance, was s large block of wood. and a cluster of candies sbout it was the only means of illumin- ation the place afforded. Came the day of dedicstl-u. The little chapel wsa crowded with people who came long distances to be present, at the opening. It was a great event in the lives of the settlers and they expressed their joy by shouting snd singing. This was s great step forward. No longer would they be obliged to hold services in the farm homes which were entirely inadequate to meet the needs of s growing con- gregation. That same year, s. Mr. James Laird of Vernon River Valley, gave twelve acres of land to the denomination for the use of the minister. 0n this site the Manse was erected and Mr. Metherall worked side by side with the farm- ers till the building was finished. Metherall and the Missionary Society furnished the necessary funds to complete the Job. He continued to occupy this home till he left to carry on his labors at the West Cape Circut. But. the crude little manse continued to serve as a residence for the Vernon River ministers till 1880, Some years later a barn was erected in the same twelve acre plot. the frame - timbers being shaped at the homo of the Scenchbouch Brothers, Murray Harbour. The frame was hauled to Vernon River during the night, a distance of about twenty-four miles, and put together the follow- ing day. ‘ . . . A second place of worship was built. at Wheatley River and open- ed for divine worship August 26. i838. Philip James was assistant st the opening service by Mr. Methersll. The membership had gradually been increasing and now stood at 106 souls. Soon the good work was ex- tended to St. Eleanofis and Bide- ford. the latter place being an important shipbuilding centre in those days, Most of the settlers of this district formerly belonged to Bideford. in North Devon, Eng- land . Bideford proved a. furtile field for missionary work, and a. church was subsequently built here.

From 1837 to i840 few records are available to shed light on what went on during those years. The new fragmants which have been able to glean from this and that source. would seem to indicate that. Mr. Metherali and Rev. W. Klniey were busily en- gaged in working their widely- scattered Circuits. gathering the people into the church fold and consolidating the work generally — s11 pioneer labor of the kind that tired men's souls and bodies. They were among the builders and sowers whose work has reached down to the present day. I O I When the log church was built st Whestley River, s series of revivals was conducted in which Methersll. James, and some local preachers took part, The meetings were a great success from the start and many families dedicated themselves to God. During the month of July, 1828, other revival meetings were held in the Union Road Church, with Metherall and James as the speak- ers. Many converts were brought under the bsnner of the Lord, which was s great source of com- fort to the missionaries. who had labored so long snd laboriously to further the Kingdom of God in the backward and sin trodden people of Prince Edward Island.
