The town of Bathurst, New Brunswick - from a photograph by E. J. Russell, of Bathurst, 1860. The town is situated on the south side of the Bay Chaleur, at the head of a basin formed by the confluence of the Grand Nipisiguit, Middle Nipisiguit, and Totagouche Rivers. Its exports are lumber and fish; the chief establishment of the former is that of Messrs. Ferguson, Rankin, and Co. who ship immense quantities of timber and deals to the British and other markets. Their saw-mill is considered the largest and best arranged in the province. Of the latter Messrs. Levy and Samuel, and Messrs. Underwood and Co. (Boston), export annually upwards of 90, 000 cases of preserved salmon. These firms employ numbers of the French settlers of the coast in the catch of this fine fish'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by E. J. Russell in Bathurst, New Brunswick, in 1860, showcases the picturesque town nestled on the south side of Bay Chaleur. The town lies at the head of a basin formed by the confluence of the Grand Nipisiguit, Middle Nipisiguit, and Totagouche Rivers. Bathurst's thriving economy was built on the exports of lumber and fish. One of the most significant lumber establishments was that of Messrs. Ferguson, Rankin, and Co., whose sawmill was considered the largest and best-arranged in the province. They shipped immense quantities of timber and deals to British and other markets. The town's other major industry was fishing, with firms such as Messrs. Levy and Samuel, and Messrs. Underwood and Co. (Boston), exporting over 90,000 cases of preserved salmon annually. These firms employed numerous French settlers from the coast to catch this fine fish. The image captures the industrial spirit of the town, with the bustling activity of the lumber and fishing industries evident in the scene. The black-and-white photograph, published in the Illustrated London News in 1860, offers a glimpse into the 19th-century townscape of Bathurst, New Brunswick, and the important role it played in the province's economy.
