Vol. 45, No. 4

$7.50

This general issue tells the story of music in Happy Valley, starting where John Heard left off in Vol. 17, No. 3. It also tells the story of the workers from Argyle Municipality, NS, who came up to Goose Bay to work in construction on Base, building several buildings on the Canadian Side and Spruce Park. We also learn about what life was like for a child growing up in the Moravian Mission in Nain during the 1880s. The Labrador Gallery features photos of prams, strollers, and push-boxes. Also includes some heartwarming Christmas stories!
