PREFACE

T o many of my friends I am indebted for the compilation of what I am afraid will prove to be a very inefﬁ cient and

. I n unreliable work inquiries among the present generation , own even regarding their families, dates are very uncertain and I had to enroll many guesses . It has been my object to trace only the Harrington family as far back as the gran tee who ﬁrs t settled in Nova Scotia . The Harringtons settled in the United States and claiming lineage from the descendants

’ ‘ u e l z of Q e n E i abeth s godson and his family, claiming coat of arms and motto as rightfully theirs to retain has gone to inﬁn ite pains and expense with the result that all the Har — ri n gton s in America and there are thousands of them r an have one pa ent, d that one points to Richard Harrington an emigrant of 1 64 3 who is buried in a cemetery at Water town , Massachusetts . As these claims all have been deﬁnitely settled to the author’ s own satisfaction and which I am not prepared to dispute I accept them also as the descendants of my great

n ﬁ f m who gra dfather, Stephen Harrington , the rst o the fa ily

tl . S of set ed at Kentville, N ., and from whom the many that province claim kinship . The constant emigration from Nova Scotia to the United States has depleted the Harrington name and population as well as the female unions which has u caused tter obliteration , so only in the families can the r u n ﬁ forme s r ame, used only as a rst or middle name, keep the remembrance of the family in existence . From the genealogical library in Boston and especially ’ “ ’ S ” from Dr. Eaton s History of King s County, N . . have I cribbed much . T o the descendants who comprise the present generation and who have contributed their family data and history I acknowledge my obligation with thanks and grati tu de . My one object in the collection of family data is to ’ t the have my la e sister, Annie E . Harrington s name in roll of antecedents where it rightfully belongs and to let the present generation of associate families trace more easily their union with the past . Space is too small to name the u who h e n merous frie nds so kindly ave he lped m , so without — — excep t ion only as men t1oned throughout the text I have to keep all donors anonymous .

CHARLES T REMAINE HARR INGT ON

(Comp iler) T he H a rri n gton s of Nov a Scoti a

When Benj amin w as about ﬁfteen years old he embraced th the Baptist fai , then under ban in Massachusetts . His u ncle remonstrated wi th him wi thout the desired effect and “ ﬁn ally punished him severely, believing that He that

d . spareth the ro , hateth his son The inheren t courage of o f conviction characteristic his ances tors, and a promi ne nt an d distinctive quali ty in the descendants at the presen t

not to r . ﬁ l time, was be conque ed As a na resort his u ncle

to t ﬂ i tied him a pos and administered a ogg ng, threaten ing to tu rn him over to the authorities if he persisted in his t hereti cal opinion . As soon as possible hereafter, Benjamin B escaped, stealing away penniless and alone wi th his ible, 3. ﬁ h s line, and a few articles in a handkerchief. He relied on the belief that the God whom he worshipped would care for him and help him to reach the Roger William settlement in r f t sa fety. His trusting faith was rewarded when, hung y, oo r e f m sore and weak f om continu d strain , he ell in with a fa ily

. of Quakers named White, traveling toward the same goal e They welcom d him to then midst, and gave of their simple he fare, caring for him in his enfeebled condition until he t em came strong enough to assist them, when he repaid h in labor. Whenever i t became necessary to unload the wagon in order to make further progress he would carry household chattels upon his back. This was no easy task especially a t when crossing swollen streams and ravines . However, him t t times a more pleasing task befell , ha of carrying t Elizabeth, the oldest daughter, through wa er and over rough places . The acquaintance thus begun with Elizabeth ripened R into love and soon after their arrival in Providence, hode 1 4 the Island, about 6 3 , she became his wife and ultimately mother of nine children . For more than forty years Benjamin Harrington played R se his part as a citizen of Providence, hode Island, rai d a 2 Genealogi ca l Record of family,accumulated property and left record that compared favorablywith those of his contemporaries . He was a close fr : iend and partisan of Roger Williams, which is evid enced ’ by mention in several of Williams letters extant and by the intermarriage of the grand child ren . That he was not an educated man is shown by the fact that his signature was m m or t ade by a ark, which probably accounts f the varie y of f Hearn on spellings o the name, ranging from Herendeen and d H r n ll a w to e e d e , as the more or less le rned clerks wrote do n the name in legal pap ers frequently in early Providence court f 1 63 records . when he was given his ﬁrst allotment o land, in 8 when he was admitted as a Freeman, at least four times when w a u v t e was he s chosen for j ry ser i ce, and many imes wh n he a party to land deed s.

accumulating land , made further purchases of large tracts . His holdi ngs were afterwards divided and portions became the boundary lines o f the counties of Colches ter and Cumber land, N . S . On th w - of 1 4 0 e t enty seventh March , 8 , an act was passed by the Legislat ure of Nova Scotia to divide the township of Parrsborough and to annex parts thereof to the counties of

Dear Mr. Harrington ,

I bu have been into Boston t seldom this summer, and Genea logi ca l Record of

so when I have gone the errands that have had to be

. I done have crowded my time full Today, however, had r for to go in fo a few errands, and various reasons could

not do some others, and so found a chance to go to the

State House. So far as I could ﬁnd there was no record of

the death in Boston of any Charles A . Harrington between

10 . 1 895 and 1 9 , at least

There was, however, the record of the death of a

Charles A . (only the initial of the mid dle name was

given) Harrington, a salesman , who died at the Somer r 10 ville Hospital, Crocker Street, Somerville, on Ma ch , 4 1 2 1 904 , his residence being at Highland Avenue,

Somerville, the primary cause of his death being peri

ton itis . I believe that there was no indication about his m family, the infor ation being furnished by some woman

a t the place given as his residence, presumably the ’ owner of the house or his landlady. His father s and ’ mother s names were unknown, bu t they were born in

Nova Scotia, and the man was born at Antigonish , Nova

Scotia, where he was buried on March 14 . He died at the

ﬁf - . age of ty nine years, one month , and three days This may be of no use to you but it will at least tell of the lack

ﬁn . of other information , or my failure to d any I hope that you are in better health and that you fi nd

. I your new quarters pleasant miss you , but have been kept so busy lately that I have got ou t of the house very

little, and presume that that will hold good during at

least the rest of this month .

Cordially yours,

G wen ska beauty as displayed in the type, ﬂew at her and

pecked her nose . Fortunately, she had presence of mind to

scream . This brought her sister rushing to the rescue and with her aid they were able to defeat the bloodthirsty brute

and cut his head off. It went on to say that the Swenska lady was not dangerously injured and was expected to re

cover. F ancy wiring such p iﬁle two thousand miles and

putting it in print . We have had two visitors to California lately that got G into the papers . First came the British ambassador, eddes,

who was visiting some colleges on this coast . Senator John son was much disturbed and wanted to know why Geddes was sneaking round his state when he was not at home to

protect it . Geddes explained he meant no harm . He was

the guest, when he reached Oakland, of President Barrows

f . o California University Barrows , himself, when he was

m . very young and could not help himself, was a Scotch an

Barrows gave him a good time and took him round . On one occasion they grew careless and while passing through Oak

land, to keep an appointment, they got arrested for speeding The police of Oakland are incorruptible and would not be

' or coaxe i n to o bribed d leniency, so the party were taken t

the police station . When justice had been meeted out it was

too late for the appointment . The other V isitor was General

Joe Joffre . Old General Joe was royally received and feted for three days and was nearly dead from fatigue when he

ﬁnally . made his escape . There is quite a French colony in

f San Francisco . The grea t bu lk of the French in SF appear to

be either waiters or laundry people . The only really good laundries in the city are French and they are not as good as

they used to be . When I was living in Honolulu I found that ' I had to put on a new collar every time I desired a clean one .

One trip to the laundry rendered the collar useless . t ff Talking of Honolulu , I notice hat the sheri there has ordered that bathers at the beach must e ither go into the T he Harri ngtons of Nova Scoti a 51

water or put their clothes on . The order is a bit tardy and the bathers are n o worse there than in California . All they

- wear, both men and women , is a semi transparent tight fitti ng sort of shirt which is kept from slipping up round the waist by a strap between the legs . It is termed a on e piece suit . The person is practically naked . The women used to wear these suits whenever p ossible . They would lounge round the hotel in them . You ru bbed up against them in the elevators and at the beach they came to lunch in them . Old Adam and Eve were much over- dressed in their fi g- leaf apparel in comparison . W It seems strange, but is nevertheless true, that hile the fair sex have been so universally shedding their last v est age of m clothes and modesty a ong the white people, the natives on fi the Paci c islands, where missionaries have gone, still stick to the modest and suffi cient garb th a t the missionaries insisted upon them wearing . In some p laces, where movie people have gone to obtain local settings for their produc tions, they have encountered trouble from the benighted

of ou native authorities, whose sense decency they had t

. H a w a ua n all raged In the islands the native women, that I ever saw, were dressed in a highly respectable manner, but I noticed the young girls were beginning to ape the white

of . girls in the matter minimum attire They never, however, came to the swimming beaches . Everything these days is sex .

All forms o f amusement have become purely sex . The old forms of entertainment are gon e . The present day amuse — ment never varies from the on e thing naked women . If

o to l you g a restaurant, there are practica ly nude singers who move among the tables singing some inane tommyrot

n o on e that understands . And then, there are the dancers ’ e who are to be seen at men s business me tings, charity and m church entertain ents , in short, the only place where I have

of not heard them being parad ed is at funerals, and I suppose ‘ ’ that is coming. These dancing females give interpretations . t They remove their clothing o start with, then they tie a 52 Gen ea logi ca l Record . of

Albany, N . Y. 2 May , 1 920. An n i a n h ar Dear Cou sms e d C lie, to Since my last writing, I have had several kind kens of r th e of emembranc e from one or e oth r you, in the shape of for f letters, cards, etc . I thank you very much your requent kind though ts of me . You will be sorry to hear that my e health, which up to the nd of January seemed to be slowly m ov o n u of i pr ing, broke d w early in February nder an attack

The Harr i ngton s of Nova Scoti a 65

or or while for a few minutes, perhaps half an hour so , for a change . I regret to be conﬁned to the house these opening to days , which I had looked forward spending largely in the o Park . I retain my appetite, but d not get much sleep at or o night . The doctor comes in once a week s , and gives me

to various pills and potions help me sleep, and to make me d o more comfortable, but cannot anything beyond that . o f e m There is no prospect any sp cial i provemen t, and the best I can hope for is to pass the days and nights as com r a bl o f fo t y as possible, and that the end my pilgrimage may not be very long delayed . I never had any desire to die young, and if I had ordinary health should be glad to live to B the three score and ten anyway, life is so interesting . u t ff when life means chieﬂy weariness and su ering, and one is a ’ burden to oneself, and one s friends, there is no reason for

so t wishing i t prolonged, I shall be glad o go when the of summons comes . I sp end a good deal time reading, and do I some writing, friendly letters and the like . t gives me something to think about besides my insigniﬁcan t self. t Letters from Sydney, indicate that there is probabili y of to t a big boom there, some be spen in extending r ﬁv the steel works, building terminals, a d y dock, and e new hotels and so forth . The Lorw a y place near the washing o for or for bro k has been bought so, the site of a new

. of hotel As a place residence, Sydney will be worse than v e er, but people in business ought to make money. I am glad Old Sydney lasted ou t my boyhood . I should hate to bo grow up as a y in the present muddy, dirty, gassy city . m West ount is the only decent part, and even there you get ’ Mc the gas and smoke . And the brooks, Leod s and the ’ Mu ah h washing brook and gg s, where the trout sported in t e ’ n ow ! clear streams, where are they Evan Crowley s Creek

n ot . You has altogether escaped and I were wise, Tremain , to c be born when we were, and thus have a nice ountry ﬁ village, with green elds and clear waters, clam d igging, an r lobster catching, smelt, cod, mackerel d t out ﬁshing, berry picking and so on . 66 Genea logi ca l Record of

n t I may ot be able owrite many more letters , as I cannot “ tell how long it will take for the earthly house of this ” m tabernacle, which see s to be put together pretty solidly, “ ” to dissolve, or how long my mental energy may stay with me, so by way of precaution, let me thank you both, now, ha for all the kindnesses and letters of friendship, I have d from you at many times during the last ﬁfty years . I pray u that your remaining years may be f ll of blessing, and that we may all by and by meet in the fairer and better world .

Your affectionate Cousin Charlie . — P . S. I notice by the papers that the salaries of all the

P. 0 . employees were to be raised . I trust you have had a ’ c substantial increase , Tremain , from Un le Sam s pocket book. Our Mission Board is very considerate for on e . With out any suggestion on our part it has increased the amount of our home allowance so that we can live comfortably on i t . o Money has never meant anything to me, except a means t d supplying daily , nee s and those of my family, or for some thing special I would d o . But as far as it represents food and clothing, books and medicine, it is indispensable and some thing to be grateful for .

work as an apprentice for a carpenter and worked for two

years at my trade . In the meantime my thoughts and my desires dwelt on seeing something o f the world beyond the

. n ot for city, in which I lived It did seem big enough me to

live in . I did not feel contented. I was just of that age when boys think they know as much and a little more than their

elders . But those were my failings which later on I found to

my sorrow. I told my mother what I had in mind and told

o ow n her that I wanted to g and work my way, to see what d o I could elsewhere in a far country, and come home some o f day with plenty money and make her happy . My mother, of ff course, thought di erent and told me to stay at home and be contented with my surroundings and I would do as well as

elsewhere . But when my mother saw that I persisted in ﬁ going, she nally gave her consent, and gave me some moth

erly advice . so on And , e day, I took leave of my mother, brother and sister and left for England . I came to Liverpool and stayed

there a couple of weeks, and to some of the surrounding “ towns, spent what little money I had and was stranded a ” t e . t s ranger in a strang land, and only a boy of sixteen I fel . e o son som what like the pr digal , not that I had been a spend t thrift, but used up what little I had in getting some hing to eat and somewhere to lay my head at night . I tell you I already was beginning to feel mighty homesick for my mother, for you must remember I had never been away from

m an d . ho e before, I missed my home My mother was one of the best mothers and loved us dearly, I missed her very much . I remembered well that when at home and after we had gone to bed a t night she would come into our room and t d tuck us in and see hat we were alright , and give us a goo

. night kiss As I have told you , I was strand ed and hardly knew what to do . As a last resource I made the acquaint ance of a Jew and told him the strait I was in . I wrote to my mother and asked her to send me some mo ney so I could p ay my board to this Jew . This Jewish family were Dutch ’ Peter Ba ker s Story 93 people so I could converse with them and told them what I had in mind . This Jew told me that I would have a splendid opportunity to go to America in a ship or sailing vessel and that he would help me to get a good ship and good wages and that in America I would have a good chance to get rich and some d ay be a great man . It all sounded very well to so for me and I told him I would think it over, as homesick as wa s n ot no I was at this time, my cup full and I did t feel like giving up what I had started ou t for . So in a few days I got a letter from my mother with the money I had asked for to bridge me over. In the meantime I told the Jew to see

d o to ﬁn d o to what he could me a ship to g America, which he did in quick order . He took me to a ship broker and got me a chan ce and shipped me as a full ﬂedged sailor. He deceived the Captain and did great injustice to me, as I did ’ o f or not know anything a sailor s life, the work that was required of me . The following day I was put on board. He took all the money my mother had sent me and beside a ’ m . onth s pay in advance, twelve dollars This left me again

bu of . without a cent, t I was sure my board

Well, my experience on board o f this schooner was a hard lesson for me . I was kicked about by the mate more than

. o ou to once for not knowing anything After we g t t sea, we to encountered a storm , and I was sent up into the p mast to furl a sail . I t took all the courage I had to climb up there and I had to get out on the halyard to furl the sail . o on for I became as seasick as a d g and could hardly hold , the schooner rolled and heaved, and I was heaving so that I thought every minute I would lose my hold and go over board . I tell you, my cup was full then , and I came to my w b senses, but too late for there as nothing to do u t hold on or o for dear life, and when I by hook crook g t down on on o deck, so sick that I could hardly stand my feet, I g t a kick from the mate that sent me spinning on deck . Well, I not to did care what they did me, had they thrown me over ﬁ h t board I would not have cared, maybe some big s migh ’ 94 Peter Ba ker s Story

have swallowed me up and vomited me again on dry land, but that was even too good to think of. I had a dogs life of n ot it for several weeks, for I could understand them, neither

an could they me, and often I would say yes, d it should have been no, and vice versa . I remember well one night on my watch that the mate sent me to the helm to steer the ship . He showed me a certain star and told me to keep the ship in that course, but after a while I lost sight of that star and got way ou t of my course, and another kick was forthcoming that made mesee

I was a sick boy and of had all the venturesomeness taken out me, and came to m f ysel , and thought of home and mother, and would have given anything if I could have got home . But I was too si ck for anything a nd just ' as soon as the schooner was docked the ambulance came and took me to the hospital, where I wasted and laid between life and death for some time .

I think of the city celestial , r The city with pea ls for its walls,

Where sunlight nor moonlight are needed,

And the shadow of night never falls .

t The friends that have hi her ascended,

The friends that I loved long ago, The children that went in the winter

When the landscape was covered with snow .

Ofttimes to my spirit ’ s wild longings

Their vision a moment is given,

And they always seem nearest at sunset,

For sunset seems nearest to heaven .

I feel the sweet peace of their presence ’ And my heart s swift beat ing i t calms, I see the whi te robes of the angels

That bear my beloved in their arms .

I know that my lost shall be found .

Weaving the story of an ancient world to Then England rose, and God was good her, n And dowered her with beauty and with stre gth, ’ And wide dominion passing Caesar s dream. Bu t when her day of visitation came

She loved herself too well , and lost herself,

And fell to the dead nations .

Ha d st thou f a i led ! h Then had t y fall been ours, thy shame our shame .

We had been worse than orphaned. With such grief ’ And horror as a mother s children know ﬁ When she whom they have crowned with lial love,

Dreaming her holier than a haloed saint ,

Stoops to dishonor, had we witnessed then ﬁ u Thine in nite disgrace, had shr nk from thee,

Had loathed thee, had disowned and spurned thee ,

Who in thy falseness hadst been false to us,

And soiled us with thy foulness, dragging down The unspoiled beauty of our happy realms

Into thy mire. Our souls had cursed the day

— REV. C . K . HARR INGTON AN APPRECIATION

BY MA RY HINC K LEY DEARING Once more heaven ’ s gates have opened wide to welcome — on e of ou r Japan mission circle Rev . Charles K . Harring

n o f . to , Tokyo

Dr . Harrington has been my friend for nearly thirty

for ﬁ to Yoho ha ma years, when I rst went as a bride Dr. and

Mrs . Harrington were among the ﬁrst to greet me . He was

then serving with Dr . Bennett in the Theological Seminary r of c as p ofessor Old Testament, the chair which he ontinued

to hold during the fourteen years that Dr . Dearing was

f e . president o the S minary, and later still with Dr Parshley . The last ﬁv e years in Japan he was loaned by the Baptists to be our representative on the commi ttee o f seven who were revising the New Testamen t in Japanese . We were always

f ou r for very proud o representative, he was the peer of

them all in Greek and Japanese scholarship . In all his work

. he was painstaking, persistent and perfect It always seemed remarkable that on e who wa s absolutely a mas ter o f detail and exactnes s should have had also the

artistic sense so highly developed as had Dr. Harrington . — He was a connoisseur of beauty o f the beauty of the out-o f o f doors world, the beauty sky and mountain and ocean , and he loved nothing so much as living in the companionship of natu re . We used to think it was essentially true of our “ friend that he is never alone w ho is accompanied by noble ” for s -to thoughts, often times he cho e the lonely hill p for his summer holiday, where he held communion alone with

God and nature . How many times we have met him with staff in hand in the quiet places in Japan , with a look of had exal tation in his face, and we knew he walked with his

Master. too for ﬁ He chose, , his evangelistic eld the lonely moun f tain provinces o Japan , and there he labored in the summer ol with old Kaneko San , the d man preacher of Shin Shu 1 1 4 An App reci ati on

m . inns, content and happy, though away fro all his kind And yet no one in our dear Japan mission family loved companionship and fellowship and home life more than Dr. tru ' a u Harrington . His friendships were deep and e, s tr e as ff his great heart of a ection, and happy and proud were we h “ who knew ourselves to be in t e inner circle, his Seven ” Friends as he liked to call us .

His pastime was writing poetry, both grave and gay. His was the pen that sketched j ingles for our mission merry e he of makings , his the heart that saw the glori s of t world

men u t u . nature and , and put them into lilting, bea if l verse “ Laughingly we used to call him the greatest living w ' and e delighted in his gracious and graceful verses, and

took pride in the fact that he be .onged to us . He would have

been a great scholar wherever he had lived, and in the ﬂ‘i cu lt v Japanese language, with its d i idiom and in olved u o e mo constr cti n, he was perhaps for most a ng our mission — aries another reason for our pride in him.

Gentle, retiring, seemingly unconscious of his greatness, he moved among us , never impatien t, never intolerant, always kind and thoughtful . I like to think of him as one of G ’ od s saints, whether as teacher or preache r, or poet, or t s udent, or friend, always practising the presence of Christ . His love for his family was one of his many charming qualities , and because he had to be separated from them for long periods of service we who loved him used to get him to

to u s t l e talk of them, o s e his face light up at every men tion h is of little daughter, Marjorie, and feel his intense pride in his dear ones . In the last letter I had from him, written only ten b days efore his death, he wrote “ I am thankful for having a comfortable place from which to embark, and for having my wife and daughter with me , ff to see me o , and I trust that ‘I shall see my Pilot face to face ’ When I have crossed the bar.

t l Bapti s Theo ogical Seminary, of which institutio n he has

been p rofe ssor t hrou ghou t his entire service in Japan . His superb scholarship and his unusual gift as a teacher made him an invaluable asset in ou r theological seminary But he was n ot content merely to train Christian

‘ preachers . His own soul burned within him to preach Christ to the Japanese . Early in his ministry he began work in

Shin hiu the towns and villages of s , the mountainous province that forms the backbone of the main island of Japan . To this work he devoted most of his vacations , besides making occasional trips in term time . Through these unremitting labors of his the gospel was ﬁrst brought to a wide section of central Japan , and many live to thank God for sending them this Christian apostle fro m the West . Others preceded him to the other .shore and were waiting to welcome him t there, notably Mr . Kaneko, t he Japanese evangelist wi h whom he labored so intimately in the country itinerating . ’ Most of Dr . Harrin gton s time during his last term of service on the ﬁeld was devoted to literary work . He was one of four missionaries selected to be associated with Japanese scholars in the revision of the Japanese New Testament . To this work he brought an unusual knowled ge of both spoken an d written Japanese, and an expert acquaintance with bOth Greek and Hebrew and the technical questio ns l n volved in the work o f translation . Large use w as made in this work not only o f the committee version o f the Ne w

e w Testam nt, but also of the Baptist version , hich Dr . Nathan Brown ﬁrst translated and to the perfect ion of which Dr . F. G . Harrington labored long and success fully . ’ e t . . But it f ll to the lat er s brother, Dr Charles K Harrington , i ts to bring this work to full consummation , merging in one splendid translation the work of these various translators of earlier days. ’ Dr. Harri ngton s literary work was by no means limited

s on e . to th om a to thi achievement Since returning e h e l nd , nd he h a , in sp ite of physical disabilities, wrote t e not able An App reci ati on 1 1 7

t work, Cap ain Bickel of the Island Sea, known , we trust,

to all readers of The Baptist . From time to time he has m ‘ printed privately little volu es , usually verse , which have

attracted wide attention . Fellow poets and literary critics repeatedly urged Dr . Harrington to give his splendid poetic creations to the public . During his last illness he corre spon d ed with one o f ou r leading American pu blishing houses with reference to the publication of a volume containing the

of th cream is large collection , but the shortage of paper caused delay and in the interim ou r poet fell asleep . The manuscript he left to his daughter Marjorie, who inherits this s plendid poetic gift of her father . We shall look forward to the publication of this work in the not distant future . In too l Japanese, , his iterary output was considerable and of a high order of merit .

Only those who were intimately associated with Dr.

Harrington appreciated his true worth . He was by nature of an unusually retiring disposition . He never sought the — chief seat in the synagogu e content to let others have all the honor and the praise . But he was a rare soul, stanch, ’ n e sincere, strong and kindly . His friendship was o of life s

The homes o f the Harringtons were well selected from

The place is now known as Canning and only the cellar now ﬁlled with rubbish is all that there is to mark the spot of the old home stead . The homestead had been sold to a Mr . Stairs of ’ Halifax by Stephen s grandson , William M . Harrington of that place who somehow became administrator or owner of of it after the death his Aunt Mary Alice, whose home it

. was all her life Stairs rebuilt the outhouses, repairing the property, after which move he sold the place . It remained empty for some time and then either accidentally or by design was burned . Insurance was of course obtained by

ﬁre . n ow . the The place is owned by a young farmer, J who for Holt by name, uses the outhouses storage room, but the value o f the property has diminished to the vanishing ’ point . Stephen Harrington s children when grown and getting ou t for themselves made their homes surrounding ’ their parents property with the exception o f my grand

w ho of dr father, Daniel, after some his chil en were born moved from Cornwallis to Halifax where he set up business as a merchant, but meeting with disaster, removed and accepted a grant of land at Antigonish . Here he built his home and added by purchase to his grant . I have been unable to locate the property the grant enclosed at Anti gonish . I was told it was in the archives at Halifax for safe keeping . At Halifax I was told that I would ﬁn d it registered s or in Antigonish .
