From Lench: The Abbott Family: No history of Bonavista Methodism would be complete without a reference to one of the most numerous family names in the whole community. On the first list of membership we find the name of Abbott as leader and members. Joseph Abbott led the way in the first decade of Methodism and the Abbotts have already had their representatives in church life. In 1822 Joseph Abbott had 22 members, and thirty- five years later, in 1857, he still retained 26 names on his Class book. It appears that the Abbotts sprang from two stocks, one came direct from England and the other from a northern settlement.

Abraham Abbott may be regarded as a celebrity in his way. He was Exhorter and Class Leader. On one occasion he was brought into court for some remark made in the pulpit. Before the verdict was given Mr. Abbott was asked for his defense, according to British fair play, and his accusers were put to silence and Abraham, though "severely tried" walked triumphantly from the Court Room. He was still at his post of duty in 1866. Having served his generation by the will of God, he fell asleep on March 1, 1876 in his 81st year. "The memory of the just is blessed."

James Abbott, another of the noble standard bearers in 1857, had 26 names on his register. Roger Abbott has for many years been a strong man in the Loyal Orange Association. Hezekiah Abbott is a worthy successor of a good stock. He has charge of over forty members and they all love him. He is a valuable member of the various Church Boards. No man has rendered more loving, faithful and willing service. May he live long to continue his cheerful services as trustee, class- leader, exhorter and collector of minister's stipend. His godly wife after a long and painful affliction has passed over the Jordan triumphantly.

TC Note: Abraham (1790-1871) probably named after Abraham Akerman. TC Note: Lench did not mention church-stewart, Roger Abbott of 1824, nor church-stewart Malcolm

Campbell.

Obtained May 7, 1986 from Victoria College, Toronto: From Provincial Wesleyan Magazine- April 1869: MRS. MARY ABBOTT, BONAVISTA, N. F.

March 22nd, 1869, widow Mary Abbott, somewhat suddenly departed this life. About the year 1817, during a revival, when Rev. Jas. Hickson was stationed at Bonavista, she was converted to God, and continued a member of Society until the day of her death. The first Sabbath in March found her at the weekly class meeting. She was a widow about 36 years, and amidst the cares of life trusted in her God. Seized with pneumonia, an illness of a few days finished the mortal strife. Her departure was unexpected, and our hope is that she is now numbered with those before the throne.

J.D. [TC Note JD is James Dove. Mary was probably wife of John? The following is a list of Marys in 1823 Methodist classes: Mouland; Whiffen; Lander; Harrison; House; Wells, Philpott]. XXXXXX

Letter from Mrs. Harper containing Abbott information I had asked her to verify for me from the Trinity Register:

Port Hope, On. L1A 3Y5 Dec 19, 1989

Dear Thomas Cole, Would you believe that the Trinity Reel I ordered 27 Feb arrived a couple weeks ago!! I'm still waiting for the Bonavista/ Catalina one & St. John's (COE) Cathedral. The reel couldn't have come at a worse time really- & I guess I should have had the Bonavista/ Cat. one first. I'm not sure what names I should be looking for- other than Hancock, Greening, Lodge, Lethbridge, Quinton & Short (maybe). On the Trinity reel I found a few Hancocks: Thomas = 1761 Ann Pottle; James of Thomas & Ann = 1796 Elizabeth Pinhorn; James =1833 Elizabeth Fleet. There were a lot of Quinlans but only a couple of Quintons (maybe the minister forget to cross the t's?). Hopefully the Bonavista register will tie some of this in - then I'd like to go back over the Trinity register.

Meanwhile I didn't have time to look for all that you wanted but I did keep my eyes peeled for Abbott and the enclosed must be the citation you wanted -dated 1830 not 1810- but does mention William Wiltshire. Sorry, our PH Library doesn't have a copier but this is it, word for word.

Thanks for all your help. Sincerely, Ruth Harper See Wiltshire file for above Wiltshire citation.

In the low Arctic, Torngat Mountains National Park (TMNP) of Canada, widespread greening has recently occurred alongside warming temperatures and regional declines in caribou. Little is known, however, about how biophysical controls mediate plant responses to climate warming, and available observational data are limited in temporal and spatial scope. In this study, we investigated the drivers of land cover change for the 9700 km2 extent of the park using satellite remote sensing and geostatistical modelling. Random forest classification was used to hindcast and simulate land cover change for four different land cover types from 1985 to 2019 with topographic and surface reflectance imagery (Landsat Citation: Davis, E.L.; Trant, A.J.; Way, archive).

IN laying this, his first essay in this peculiar department, before a considerate, generous and enlightened public, the author is not uncon­ scious of its many shortcomings; but would venture to express a hope that the little work may not be found unacceptable to the business portion of our community, for whom it is principally intended. In the present instance, the author has labore<l under many unforeseen disadvantagei, not the least amongst which may be accounted the difficulties of commu­ nication attendant upon the peculiar sea!on of the year, it being late in the autumn when the work was at first projected. Under these circum­ stances, the amount of information connected with the outports of thQ Colony may not be of so ample or sa~isfactory a character as he would have desired, but he has little doubt that the amount of patronage accorded to the present effort may be of such a character as to justify 3 continuance in the future of a.
