Show Notes

Over the years, Newfoundland and Labrador benefitted from the efforts of dedicated men and women who were sent here to promote one Christian denomination or another. One who fascinated Ella Manuel was Julian Moreton, who pitched up on the shores of northern Bonavista Bay as a Church of England missionary. His 1863 memoir “Life and Work in Newfoundland: Reminiscences of Thirteen Years Spent There” tells of his travels and adventures in the scattered and thinly populated northeastern corner of Newfoundland.
