Augustine Cove (P.E.I.) History.

From the time of the introduction of potato growing on a large scale in P.E.I, some half century ago the Carleton district has been in the forefront in the development of this industry.

Transportation was one of the great problems of those ear¬ ly days there being no trucks etc., to transport the products and all hauling had to be done by horse drawn vehicles to the nearest rail centres which at that time was Cape Traverse or Albany or to the nearest port which was Victoria and both the rail and wat¬ er outlets were very inadequate to handle large quantities. Un¬ der these conditions farmers were very much handicapped and it was not until the inauguration of the ferry service at Borden in 1917 and the widening of the railway gauge that the industry in P.E.I, as a whole expanded to its present day proportions.

When the rail lines were laid to Borden and the terminal at Cape Traverse removed it became evident to all concerned that a siding or station should be established at Carleton as this would serve a very large area much more conveniently than the existing stations at Albany and Borden. The railway recognized this need and about 1920 Carleton Siding was built. The foresight of this has been established as the business here has grown from the original five car spur to one of fifteen car capacity and a peak shipping season even this is sometimes inadequate.

Leonard McCarville and his brother Mark also felt the need of a storage warehouse and about this time, they built one on the west side of Carleton Station. A railway spur line was put in to facilitate the handling of car lots of potatoes fertilizer etc. This building has served as a place of business for several con¬ cerns and very extensive business has been conducted here. First by the original owners later by G. Clayton Green now of Emer¬ ald. The P.E.I. Potato Grower's Association, Douglas Bell, Nor¬ man! Reeves and now owned and operated by Stanley Mayhew of Kinkora.

Russel Hamill who for many years has grown and trade in potatoes also followed in building a twenty car warehouse here and for the past twenty five years has carried on a very success¬ ful seed and table stock trade under the first name of R. T. Ham- ill. Fred Bell who since 1922 has been engaged in the market¬ ing of potatoes also has a twenty five car warehouse here. Al¬ though now living in Summerside this business is extensively carried on and in years of trading Mr. Bell can be considered one of the oldest dealers here. Harold Muttart has just completed a modern storage warehouse on his farm along the railway, this will add an additional 20 cars to the storage total of the above warehouses.

The first resident seed inspector was J. Gordon Ross now one of the senior officers of the Department of Agriculture in Charlottetown. Mr. Ross has been succeeded by John Myers the present holder of this position.

A very fine spirit of co-operation has always existed between the growers dealers and inspectors. As a result of this team work the industry has steadily progressed until to-day Carleton Siding may truly lay claim to shipping approximately 8-10% of

The first garage in Carleton was operated by Stanley Link- letter who married Myrtle Murray. They built a new home and remained here for a number of years. They had one son, Gordon. The Linkletters sold their property to George Doull and moved to Summerside. This property was later purchased by Avalah MacCallum and his wife Grace Thompson MacCallum. They had two children, Lloyd and Pauline. Mr. MacCallum passed away but his widow and family still reside here.

Norman MacWilliams built his garage and filling station at Carleton corner in 1931. He married Dorilda Howatt of Cape Traverse. Mrs. MacWilliams operated a restaurant for a num¬ ber of years in part of the same building where Norman had his garage. In 1946 they sold out and moved to Borden. Mr. and Mrs. Keith Stordy bought this property. They had two daught¬ ers, Arlene and Dianne. Mr. Stordy was employed on the car- ferry. After residing here about fifteen years they sold their home to Mrs. A. A. MacCallum and moved to Victoria.

This large lot of land was first owned by Donald Morrison who had one son, Norman. They moved to Western Canada. Others who lived here were William Dunn (he married Mattie Wright, Cape Traverse and had one daughter, Bessie). John Campbell who resided here for a short time. Cornelius MacMil¬ lan (who married Annie Hennacy, to them were born four child¬ ren, Lome, Lena, Alban and Daniel). Peter Ranahan (who had two sons Emmett and Thomas). Robert Carmichael (whose family attended Carleton School, namely, Margaret, Dorothy, Duncan, Gertrude^ Anna, Benjamin, Mary and Robert).

Harry Doull built his filling station at Carleton Corner in 1932 and continued to operate it until his death in 1958. At this time it ceased to operate.

When the new Trans- was built through Carleton, Ralph MacCaull and Wendell MacWilliams erected a filling station at Muncey's Corner on land purchased from Morley Muttart. This building was completed in the spring of 1954 and Jack Campbell became lessee. He married Shirley MacDonald Cape Traverse and had four children, namely, Peter, Nancy, Paul and Lee. In 1958 the Coughlin Brothers became lessees. ' Ken¬ neth is married to Jennie Smallman, O'Leary. They have one daughter, Glenda. Bannerman married Freda Myers Carleton To them were born two sons, Ralph and David.

Raymond Harvey moved to Carleton and became Postmaster He built a new home and Post Office. Later he bought Ralph MacCaull's store and now operates both post office and store He married Thelma Henderson. They have three children Lloyd Henderson and Rowena. Lloyd married Grace Howatt and lives in Cape Traverse. Henderson married Cleona Arsenault and is in Germany with the R.C.A.F. Rowena married Harvey Costain and has one daughter, Barbara.

Mrs. Minnie (Bell) Kennedy came to Carleton from British Columbia after the death of her husband. She built a new home and resided here for a time then moved to Charlottetown. She sold her property to William Cohoon who is married to Helen McCarron. They have two daughters, Sheila and Reta. He is employed on the car ferry.

Connick was the next blacksmith followed by John A. MacKay, William A. Howatt, John O'Connor, Jarvis MacGaughey, Eugene McCabe, Michael Moon and Paul Lavoie.

It is a well known fact that the Indians lived on P.E.I, before the French English settlers came here. In library searching for their history, nothing definite could be found of this settlement except memories of five older residents that during summer months they had camps not far from where the saw mill was on King Maclnnis land. This was a very convenient place beside a good water spring, near railroad track and surrounded by acres of woodland where material could be found to make their handi¬ crafts, which they sold to this community and surrounding dis¬ tricts. This district has constant reminders of the Indian peo¬ ple as from day to day the M.V. Abegweit can be seen going to and from Borden, a part of this school district in by gone days. Abegweit (resting on the wave) being the descriptive name give to P.E.I, by the Indians before European settlers came.

Crossing at the Cape from Prince Edward Island —13—

The ice boat service at the Cape was begun by the late Louis Muttart and Arthur Irving and in those days there was no boat house or any accomodations for the housing of the boats. A small field know as the gully and being a part of the farm of the late Thomas Bell was used for many years or until such time as the boat house was built at Cape Traverse wharf This field was bought in 1878 by Mr. Muttart and it is on the land that the first cable house was erected this being the starting point for the Northumberland Strait cable from Cape Traverse to Cape lor- mentine 1878 Thos. Bell deeded land to Louis Muttart.

During- the summer of 1913 engineers H. M. Downing of Hali¬ fax and Sidney Willet of Moncton with the assistance of Hugh MacLure and Charles MacKenzie of Breadalbane surveyed for the railroad spur to Carleton Point now the Town of Borden.

On Dec. 3rd, 1913 the work of building began with Hugh MacLeod of Breadalbane as foreman. Horses and carts were used to haul the clay till the winter frost set in, in January.

In the summer of 1918 a number of railroad cars were placed in Carleton on the vacated line running to Cape Traverse. Fifty (50) German prisoners and twenty-eight (28) guards under Lieut. Abbott lived in the cars. The prisoners worked at taking up the Cape Traverse Branch not in use and removing the narrow gauge rail to Emerald Junction. They also worked in the Borden yard.

This district is privileged to be situated along part of the road which is the shortest route from Summerside to Borden. As a result the part north of Doull's corner was one of the first paved roads in the province being completed in 1935. The first cement road on the Island was laid from Doull's corner to Borden. Now it is all paved through Carleton to Cape Traverse. The Trans- also runs through the district from east to west. The only clay roads are from Noonan's shore to Albany and a short branch road leading to Cape Traverse and Bradford.

As the railway came into being, a siding was established at Carleton on land which was purchased from Frank Muttart and Michael McCarville.

The first building to appear at the Siding was a potato ware¬ house owned by Herbert Lord and operated by Lords Companv of Cape Traverse. This building was later moved to Carleton shore and transformed into a summer cottage by its present own¬ er, Keith Lord.

Before long other buildings began to move in. One was mov¬ ed from Wright Leard's in Bedeque by Warren Lord who, with his wife Millicent Muttart, occupied it for a number of years. He was followed by John H. Howatt, an employee of the C.N.R ., who with his wife, Mary James, and family, Jennetta, Harold, Llovd and Vivian, made it their home for some time. The property was then acquired by Montague Campbell who occupied it until his death together with his wife, Barbara MacFarlane, and daugh¬ ter Helen, now Mrs. Julian Herring of Charlottetown. The house is presently occupied by Austin Campbell and his wife, Ora Mac- Innis, whose family consist of Audrey, Robert, Jean and Sharon.

Cook Howatt, Sr., a C.N.R . employee, moved a house from Cape Traverse in which he lived with his wife, Edna Howatt, and family for a number of years (see Howatt History). The house was later sold to its present owner, Hedley Muttart, for use of his farm help. It is now occupied by Stanley Rogers, his wife Teresa Pineau, and family, Eric, Linda, Donna, Gerald, Gail and Kenneth.

A house moved from Cape Traverse passed through several hands and was finally acquired by Frank Quigley whose comfort¬ able home it is at the present time.

The home recently acquired by Leith Cameron and his wife Aletha Dickie was originally moved from Cape Traverse by Mel¬ bourne Howatt and had a succession of owners including John Crockett, and others, and was ultimately purchased by Fred Bell who made extensive alterations and additions to it. On his de¬ parture from the community the house was bought by Ralph MacCaull who lived in it for a number of years together with his wife, Selina Myers, and daughters Elizabeth and Edith, until his entry into the Christian Ministery made it necessary for him to leave the community.

Nathan Bell who sold the old homestead farm at Carleton built a new home at Carleton Siding where he and his wife, Annie Howatt, still live. Their only son, Dean, with his wife and family reside in Amherst, N.S.

A house from Cape Traverse was moved to its present loca¬ tion by Harry Muttart, a C.N.R . employee, who with his wife Tessa Howatt and daughter Jean, occupied it- Jean is now Mrs. (Dr.) Brenton Stewart and resides in Moncton, N.B.

Following the sale of this general store at Cape Traverse, Keith Lord, who had previously built a potato warehouse at the Siding built a new home on the site of the general store which had been operated by Lord's Limited and destroyed by fire He still resides in this house with his wife, Vera Doughart, whose family of four daughters include Margaret, Anita, Marion and Joyce. Marion is now the wife of Lloyd Ramsay who is associat¬ ed in the produce shipping business of Lord and Ramsay Ltd. A grandson, Donald Crossman, makes his home with the Lord s.

The home occupied by Randolph Stevenson, his wife Areta Bernard, and family Marjory and Louis, was moved to its pres¬ ent location by Frank Howatt formerly of Cape Traverse who made it his home for a number of years. After his death the property was acquired by George Campbell and his wife, who in turn sold it to its present owner and occupant.

Key tapping was music to all the Muncey family and the children in the home, Sue, Frank, Sing, Neenah and Nan all learned to receive and send messages by Morse Code, and all worked in the office when their father needed them. T. C. Mun¬ cey died of pneumonia in 1904 and his office saw a succession of young operators from Charlottetown including Charles Webster, Cleveland White, Ernest Large, Jack MacLeod and Mark Calder. All these boarded in the Muncey home. The office closed out in the period 1914-1916 when Borden was born at Carleton Point and the new Car Ferry terminal needed a telegraph office close by.

The healthy children grew up to make their way in the world. One son, Singleton Wyndham, known in Carleton as "Sing" enlisted for the Boer War in Winnipeg in 1899 nda served as Sergeant with the E. Battery, Royal Canadian Field Artillery. At the end of the formal fighting he joined Howard's Scouts in a mopping-up action against the guerilla fighters and in February of 1901 was wounded in the shoulder. The severing nerves which paralized his arm resulted in his convalescence in England for a year where his disability was partially overcome. In 1928 when the Empire Parliamentary Association came to Canada, one of its members Colonel Collins an Irishman who had commanded a Boer unit in the war told newspaper men that he owed a pair of boots to S. W. Muncy from whom he had looted them with other personal belongings after wounding him in a skirmish on the Veldt. Collins knew Sing's name from a letter which he took 'at the time and had mailed for him.

John D. Muttart lived first in a log house which his uncle had erected on the east side of the road leading from Carleton to Cape Traverse, near the site of Mrs. Leigh Lowther's garden. The second house, on the John D. Muttart farm was put up in 1864. It was built on a style advocated by an American named Rankin. The walls, were of battens one by three solid lumber built in log house style.

The house that was built in 1864 and moved across the road in 1882 was the one that most of the nine children were born in. It remained there until March 1890 then moved to Cape Traverse. The writer was a lad of ten it was a memorable day to see 80 horses harnessed together to haul the house a distance of two miles the farmers came as far distant as Fernwood, Serletown, Albany, Tryon, Augustine Cove and Cape Traverse. When the word go was given the 80 horses all started together and never halted until it was on the spot.

The idea was that there was no need of lathing the house because the plaster could be put on directly over the wood surface However, the plaster did not stay very well and John D., erected a two story frame dwelling in 1882 which still stands, the resid¬ ence of Hedley and Harold Muttart. The beautiful elms which shade the house were planted (little whips of things) shortly af¬ ter the house was built. The batten house was moved across the road and later sold and moved away and it too still stands in I960, the residence of Harry Crossman in Cape Traverse.
