Temple Tickle near Chateau. On the summit of the elevations sown on the right we found grape and cannister shot, also an old knife and other relics, where tradition gives us the Acadians made a final stand for liberty in this barren country. To the east of this place, some distance also east of Whale Island are to be found many ruins of a rock built stockage, as we were advised, where these pioneers struggled against their oppressors, and likely the few that were left went to the summit of the hill or low mountain here shown. It was a dreary place to cope with a vicious "survival of the fittest" oppressor. [includes negative]
