TOURING QUEBEC AND THE MARITIMES 79 opposite side of the harbour and forming one of the head¬ lands, is the Oven's Bluff, a huge slate cliff, into whose sides, the sea, by its ceaseless activities throughout the ages, has worn huge caves or caverns, which send back echoing roars as 's waves dash into them. There is a legend that an Indian once entered the largest of these caves in a canoe, and emerged at Annapolis, on the other side of the province. At the rear of the town is the back harbour, famous for its marvellous scenic beauties, which follows a winding course, river-like, from the town eastward to the sea, its shores replete with tiny enchanting bays and enticing inlets. We were loath to leave behind this panorama so unique and entrancing, but as our time was brief in Lunenburg, we hurried on to visit the Lunenburg Foundry Company, which manufactures equipment for fishing and coasting vessels, with all their iron and brass accessories. In these products, this company is undoubtedly the largest and most experienced manufacturer in the whole of the Dominion of Canada . Next we saw the Shipbuilding Plant of Messrs. Smith and Rhuland , builders of the internationally famous "Bluenose" and the greater part of the present day fishing fleet. The Cold Storage Plant of the Pro¬ ducts proved intensely interesting. We saw frozen her¬ ring, hard as boards, prettily marked mackerel weighing from 5 to 7 pounds, and salmon, cod, haddock, etc. The average annual gross returns from the fish landed at the port of Lunenburg is approximately one and one- half millions of dollars. The cured product is shipped to the United States, , Cuba, Rico, etc. It is carried there during the winter months by big vessels
