Johnnie Hector MacLean f ■ ^ie next neighbour was Johnnie Hector . I can still see his father and mother coming to JL church in a wagon, but I never spoke to them and know nothing of their history. Johnnie Hector was one of the better educated men of his time. He worked as a bookkeeper in a store in Murray Harbour . He married Phemie Blue from Hopefield . None of their four boys obtained his skills. Johnnie Hector was an excellent fisherman and fished at Wood Islands . In the midst of the Depression I bought a '29 Chev from him. It was one the RCMP had had. There were only 20,000 miles on it when I got it, and I paid $125 for it. What a job I had accumulating the cash for it! When I exchanged it for a Dodge there were over 60,000 miles on it. One could not meet a more pleasant man than John¬ nie Hector. 107
