Vanishing Breed at Saint John Market Century-Old Stall Tour
A visitor recalls Saint John New Brunswick's century-old city market, housed under cover since 1842 and rebuilt after fires. The piece highlights long-tenured vendors like Joe Wall with a centennial photo display, Thad Chapman, Frank Parks, and Maritta McNuty, plus crafts, flowers, cheeses, and local produce. It notes the Marine Historical Society of Saint John, led by Captain H. R. Conley, and small-town trading charms amid a bustling market scene.
