These are the Tintamarre marshes of
40 square miles or about 25,600 acres.
See Boucher p.75. In a conversation with
a foreigner he says these marshes do not
connect with Cumberland Straits as there
is higher land along this coast. It seems
divided as if at one time the Bay of Fundy
connected with Cumberland Strait thus
this narrow neck of land now uniting
Nova Scotia to New Brunswick and the
Continent.
Stopping at Humphreys House in the
night. The main body move to Mr Chas.
Stuart's house at Bellevue Cove.
Made the acquaintance of Mrs
McFar - a former tree nurse at Dalhousie.
