| St. Joseph's Convent, St. Andrew's Chapel, Charlottetown, ca. 1880 |
| |
"The old Catholic Chapel at St. Andrew's, which is intended to be fitted up for the 'St. Joseph's School', Pownal Street, was hauled down the East River on Monday, as far as Apple-tree wharf, where it was left for the night, in consequence of the runners upon which the building was placed, having sunk into the ice, which is very bad about that locality. On Tuesday a force, to the number of 500 men and about 100 horses, from town and surrounding districts, proceeded to the spot and succeeded in extracting the building from its perilous position, and bringing it safely to the city. To-day it will be hauled to the site prepared for it on Pownal Street."
