Description
Where these gulls now reign, the "King of Pictou", Edward Mortimer, had at the time of his death, not many years before Joseph Howe's visit, two long wharves and the associated warehouses to accomodate his extensive mercantile activities. Of the mid-1820s, someone wrote, with perhaps a touch of exaggeration, that so many ships were anchored off Pictou, that one could walk across the harbour on their decks.
