Hi Vickie and JerrySaw some old correspondence between you two regarding William Betts, the ship's carpenter of New Glasgow, who was blinded when a cannon misfired at a wedding celebration on 26 November 1868.
Thanks to Dutch Thompson's sleuthing, we have more details of that unfortunate event also a newspaper cutting.
Please contact me directly if you would like a copy or more details. Sincerely Dave Mitchell mi...@pixie.co.za ___________________________________________ nsroots mailing list nsroots@ednet.ns.ca http://mailman.ednet.ns.ca/cgi-bin/listinfo/nsroots
