EARLY last week when the ice prevent
ed the winter' stesmere from reaching
Charlottetown, Capt. N. F. Fraser, Mount
Bnchannnn, sailed into `Pinette Harbor
with his schooner from Picton through
Islx inches of ice. The sight was \\'u.tched`
by many and was very interesting as the
crew walked ahead and the vessel plough-
ed along after them. This was the last
vessel to load at Picton for the Island this
fall.
