    N"O 205 DECEXUBEFI.. 19&0 PICTOU IIIICR Mr.R.c.Tibbetts THE THIRTY SIXTH ANNUAL BANQUET OF' the Association was held on March 15th. ,1968. The Guest Spe aker \.Jas Mr. R.C.Tibbetts,Manager,Tibbetts Paints, Ltd. and Association mem­ ber from Trenton,Nova Scotia. Hr. Tibbetts gave a very interesting paper on the construction of the Pictou Branch of the Nova Scotia Railway in 1866-67, which we are privileged to reproduce herewith. PREAMBLE. RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION IN NOVA SCOTIA was not very rapid in the pre - Confederation days in the Maritimes, nor was it without incident. As early as l836,there were stirrings and mutter­ ings, and these rumblings continued for fifteen years, to the time when in l8C;1, Francis Hincks eschewed governme nt ownership, of main­ line railways.This decision did little to improve Mr. Joseph Howe's temperJ Lately an enthusiastic proponent of responsible government( his 1851 enthusiasm was for railways, - be they public (government) or private. This enthusiasm was engendered as early as 1848, when Premier Howe and his solicitor-general fathered a resolution in the House of Assembly, to construct a railway from Halifax, the Pro­ vincial capital, to Windsor~ and the Government was in the railroad business. The spring of 1~50 resounded to the enthusiasm of the legislators as they pledged the government to underwrite half the cost of the line. Next was a new project,which was no less enthusi­ astically promoted. This was to run sixty one miles from Halifax north westward to Truro, and the first sod was turned at Richmond, near Halifax, on June 13, 1854.
