I worked with Angus for a week. He was a great guy. I went to the old 
     
     country forge, got the iron work done for the boat, rudder, shoe etc., 
     
     helped him and finished the boat on schedule. When the ice went we 
     
     towed the boat to Boughton Island. We still had quite a lot of work to 
     
     do on her yet, since there was still a motor to be installed. We had, of 
     
     course, no money for an engine so Pete borrowed $150.00 and the 
     
     next day l was on the road again. The ice was gone so Pete rowed 
     
     me to Launching Point. I walked from there to Newport, crossed 
     
     on the ferry and then walked to Georgetown....The next morning I 
     
     made my way to the CNR train station. By noon I was on my way 
     
     to Charlottetown. I went to Bruce Stewart & Co and bought a 5 hp 
     
     Imperial, $130.00 I landed the engine on the train that afternoon at 2 
     
     o’clock and I was on my way back to Georgetown. We finally got the 
     
     engine home to Boughton Island, installed it and Peter and Wendell 
     
     MacKenzie fished that season. Lobsters at this time were only worth 
     
     about 5 cents a pound so not much money changed hands... 
     
     WHARF BUILDING 
     
     in 1937 things were improving a bit. A new wharf was to be built 
     
     under a Federal project. The fishing season was over so Pete and I went 
     
     to Montague by boat, to have a chat with the Federal representative 
     
     from our district. His name was Thomas Vincent Grant, ..... we found 
     
     out who the builder would be and he was Alexander MacKenzie of 
     
     Dover ..... We, of course, contacted him, told him about our mission 
     
     and made an appointment to meet him in Georgetown. He was quite 
     
     an elderly man, big black eyes, square face as red as any rose you 
     
     ever seen...He had been around California, railroading etc., He had a
