A.B. ANDERSON:
He retired in 1857 and came down here, and in 1858 he - Hudson Bay wrote and asked him to go down and take charge of a place called, a fort, Hudson Bay fort on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, called Mingan, and the only way he could get down there was to go by canoe. So George McCue, that would be a grandfather of the man of the McCue that is in charge, Harold McCue, is in charge of Snake Island, he and three other Indians paddled grandfather Anderson from Sutton to the Gulf of St. Lawrence in a bark canoe, and while he was there, there was a vessel wrecked called the North Briton. And he bought the captain's tableware and we have 3 or 4 jugs and sugar basins, the sugar basins would hold about five pound of sugar and my sister's got some of those things and we've got some, we've got plates and some jugs and mugs.
