Mr. Higgins afterwards became the representative of the county in the local assembly. When he died Mr. Creed of Boston married his widow, settled on his farm and filled his place as a representative. In the year 1818 this farm was offered for sale. Mr. Roger Wests.- way, a native of England and Mr. John Wightman. an emigrant from Dumfrles; Scotland, drew lots for the purchase of the property and Mr. Wightman was the successful drawer. Mr. Westaway by no means vexed at hia ill success took the next adjoining farm to the west. where he planted a large orchard, some of the three of which are bearing to the present time. The farm adjoining Mr. Wightmanll to the east was occupied by the Hon. Edward ‘Thornton, who later be- came the representative of Cardigan District and Speaker of the Legis- lative Assembly. Closely adjacent to Mr. Weataway‘: farm was that of Donald Stewart a. settler from Perthahire, Scotland. Mr. Stewart was the grandfather of the present occupant Mr. Daniel, Stewart and Premier J. D.

Joseph Wlghtman, a non of John Wight- mnn, besides his farming activities carried on a large mercantile trade, building and operating many ships for his own use. Besides his bull- neaa at St. Andrews Point, he had branch stores at Montague Bridge. Georgetown and Murray Harbour, Extending along both sides oi the Montague River from the western boundaries of Lower Montague and Brudenell to the head of tide water is "Montague The Beautiful." Al- though the town occupies only a small portion of this territory at its eastern extermity, the beauty ls by breeze that brought ships through the Gut of Cnnso also brought them into Georgetown Harbour, whence they were distributed up the three rivers. Thus Montague became one of the greatest shipping parts of the province, where the agricultur- al products of a wide range of country were gathered. Shipbuild- ing WII also carried on extensively. The prominent men in that trade no means confined there but spreads itself out along the upper reaches cf the river on the maple covered hills and fertile farms of the countryside. The bridge in Montague was built in i831, but before that time a man by the name of Lampcrd from Ireland had settled on the south side of the river, nearly di- rectly opposite the alto of the prel- ent bridge. East of Lamperd was Dr. Clay, an army surgeon from England, who later removed to. Bridgetown, when the Lemons took his place. It is on the site of these two farms that moat of the town of Montague on the south side of the bridge is built. On the opposite bank of the river farms were taken up by Wm. Anncar dud Wm. wat- son, while further to the west we find later such nam as: Keith, McDcrrnid, Power, Riley, Gordon, Munroe, McLennan, McLean, O'- Halloran and McLeod.
