For Posterity's Sake Volume 1

For Posterity's Sake, Volume 1, is a collection of Obituaries, Memoriams and Cards of Thanks from Colchester County, Nova Scotia. I like to call this the Gym Bag Collection as they were all stored haphazardly in a gym bag. Some of the articles were originals, but the majority were photocopies in various states of readability. Many articles were torn, folded, water-stained and photocopied overlapping each other. Every effort was made to transcribe them here with as much accuracy possible. Where an article was unreadable, or text was missing due to the article being torn, "(...)" was entered where the text was missing. Where possible, some articles were repaired by comparing and merging duplicates. Also included are approximately 150 hand written transcriptions by Mr. S. Hutchinson of Tatamagouche, NS.
