Set tleymnt-ori gins. 



114. Bass River Settlement, — G. An expansion chiefly from Miramichl of 



English and Irish settlers after the fire, who settled along- this then 

 new road. (Loc. inf.). 



115. Bay du Vin, — N. First settled by Loyalists, but joined later by various 



immigrants and native expansion from Miramichi. A history of the 

 settlement with an historical map, is expected to appear In the Mag- 

 azine " Acadiensis, " St. John, Vol. VII. 



115. Beaubears Island, — N. Its modern settlement dates apparently from 

 considerably before 1800 when James Fraser from Scotland established 

 here a shipbuilding and mercantile business, and in 1805 built the 

 stone house still standing (of stone imported from Aberdeen). Later 

 it was sold to John and Alexander Fraser who continued the business, 

 and later it passed through the hands of various owners, Harley, 

 Russell and others, and long continued the site of shipbuilding and 

 trading. Originally, when all travel was by water, it was a very 

 valuable situation for trade, but improvement in land communication 

 caused its abandonment. The stone tomb on the island is that of 

 Joseph Russell L. D. S. [Latter Day Saint]. (Loc. inf.) 



118. Bonum Gould should read Bon homme Gould.

121. Campbelltown. This settlement of the N. B. and N. S. Land Co. seems 

 to have been on the East, not the West, side of the Miramichi. 



121. Campbell Settlement, — K. This settlement is not native expansion, as 



here stated, but was formed homologous with the Scotch and Irish 

 settlements on the Kings-Queens Boundary, by immigrants from the 

 Highlands of Perthshire, Scotland, with some north of Ireland Irish, 

 as I am informed by Rev. Chalmers Jack. *" 



122. Caraquet, — G. As noted earlier in this paper, under Historic Sites, 



the sailors of the St. Simon, founders of Lower Caraquet, were

 in the Magazine " Acadiensis, " St. John, Vol. VI or VII.
