MacDougall 's Corner near Grand River and he was a bachelor. He was definitely practising in O'Leary in the year 1900, but confirma¬ tion of the length of his stay has been difficult to obtain. It is known, however, that he was practising in O'Leary in 1917. The 1914-1915 Directory lists Dr. Joseph P . McGrath as physician and druggist in O'Leary . Dr. McGrath was from Lot 1, P.E.I. , and graduated from McGill University before coming to O'Leary to practice medicine. He came from a large family who were well educated considering the times in which they lived. In a sketch of Gustave McGrath in Warburton and MacKinnon's History of Past Present on P.E.I. , the biographer lists three sisters who were nuns in Roman Catholic orders, two sisters teaching school in Prince Edward Island , a brother, Frank, who was a doctor in Bloomfield , and Joseph, who was studying at McGill. Two doctors who also served in the O'Leary area in the early twentieth century were Dr. D.W.P MacBride and Dr. Frederick Taylor . Dr. MacBride had been practising in Tignish before moving to O'Leary as he is listed in the Prince Edward Island Directory as being in Tignish in 1914 - 1915. Dr. Taylor was born in 1887 in Charlottetown and was educated at West Kent School and Prince of Wales College. He graduated from McGill University and practised medicine in Montague until the outbreak of the First World War when he went to Europe. While in Europe, Dr. Taylor married an English woman and brought her to O'Leary after the close of the war. Dr. and Mrs. Taylor lived in the present day Beverley (Boates) Makin house while in O'Leary . Mrs. Gorrill recalled them vividly. Two medical men had brief sojourns in the village during the 1930's besides Dr. Champion who died in 1938. These two doctors were Dr. Roy Kennedy and Dr. Champion Holland. Dr. Kennedy was from the Kensington area but could be considered a "local" doctor because he was a first cousin to Marne Kennedy of O'Leary . Dr. Kennedy was born in 1900 and attended Kensington School and Prince of Wales College. He took his medical training at McGill University, graduated and interned at Rochester, New York . He moved to O'Leary in 1930 and practised here until 1934 or 1935 when he moved to Alberton . During the Second World War, he served in the Armed Forces at Moncton and Chatham. Mrs. Kennedy was the former Betty Evans , R.N . of Owen Sound , Ontario . Dr. Champion Holland was Dr. J.B. Champion 's nephew and was just beginning his medical career when he came to O'Leary to help his uncle. Dr. Holland was an energetic young man who did not exercise enough care for his own health.
