I hope that we will not have such a severe spell again this winter. /1

Two - count 'em - two jobs at UPEI - one in History (specifically aimed at Atlantic Canada) and one in English (which could be Atlantic Canadian!).

Great short essay. I’ve been working on a transcription project for the Port of Saint John customs house, so seeing many parallels with NS. In 1788, 55 of the 88 non-British ships that sold cargo in SJ were from the US - all carrying foodstuffs.
24.02.2026 15:27 — 👍 17 🔁 9 💬 0 📌 3#JamesBarryDiary 24/02/1876 Dreadful cold last [night] and all this day. It also blew tremendously last night. The roads are a good deal humbugged, but not at all impassable. I cleared the kiln this evening and only one grist of Oats to ground [sic]. Thermometer 13º below Zero. All well. Amen. Amen.

#JamesBarryDiary 22/2/1876 Heavy white frost last night and this day was heavy but mild. I was very busy in the kiln and milk. I was bothered a great deal with the tackle on account of the metal wheel getting loose. I had to take the wheel and roller down and wedge the wheel fair and tight. 1/
