Island of St Johns Seen as Key for Trade and Settlement
A correspondent reflects on St John’s Island in the Gulf of St Lawrence as an ideal site for universal trade. He notes fertile lands, abundant livestock, timber, fisheries, and potential for a significant naval and commercial hub, urging efforts to establish governance, settlement, and infrastructure. The piece praises Lord Hillsborough and Lord Egmont, mentions government plans to plot land lots for officers, and suggests the island could become a major nursery for seamen and a strategic key to the St. Lawrence region.
