What grades did you take at Lower Cove school?
First I went from primary to grade 8 down here, then I went to Joggins for 9 and 10, and the rural high was coming in and I took 11 and 12 out there (River Hebert). I went on the bus.

What do you remember about Minudie, when you were growing up in Lower Cove?
I can remember what my mother said about Minudie. She worked there as a young girl. A lot of people had farms, and they always had someone, a girl, would be in the kitchen, and thats what my mother did, she worked there for a while. There were a lot of farms.

Do you remember which family she worked for?
Yes its down now, Morris's. They lived right, do you know where Ruth Symes lives, well if you are coming from River Hebert, it was right on the corner. Ruth Symes's and then there was a big, huge house right on the corner. And she went to the Catholic Church, my mother did in Minudie. And then she worked for, after she worked for the Morris's, she went up and worked for, I believe it was the Vernon's, and she worked there for a short time.
