The article recounts a dangerous early 20th century sea route from Georgetown, P.E.I., to Pictou, detailing a blinding snowstorm that left crews lost at sea. Three boats and twenty mail s were involved, with two women and one man dying as crew and passengers suffered severe frostbite. Plans led to the Stanley and Minto steamers built in Scotland, designed to crush ice with heavy tanks and to operate despite ice jams, though journeys remained perilous and often hampered by ice. Dr P A Selntyre, former Lieutenant-Governor of the Island, contracted rheumatism during the voyage.
