Catholics, and one hundred and twenty horses were used to pull the chapel past Doyles Point to Charlottctown.(MacDonald 55) We can imagine Jim and perhaps William and Moses, getting into a sleigh to head up river to watch and lend a hand when needed. The women probably brought hot food out to the workers. Help was certainly required when the chapel went through the ice at Apple that evening. There it remained on the bottom until the following day. It is very probable that shelter might have been offered to some of the weary workers that night at the Doyle farm. (Many spent the night sitting by open fires along the shore.) At four the next morning Rev. Angus MacDonaid left Charlottetown with a large number of men and headed to the site of the sunken chapel. Lots of neighboring men lent a hand. It is a safe bet that James was among them, probably with his young brother William along as well. History tells us that at four p.m. that day they managed to get the chapel on the ice again and then hauled it to Charlottetown . ( MacDonaid 56) One of the men with a team of horses was Dougald Macdonald from . His daughter Ellen Zita , would marry John, the son of Jim Doyle . Did Jim and Dougald meet for the first time during that event? One Sunday morning in July of 1866 when the family was rising for Mass, someone, perhaps returning from barn chores, would likely have yelled to awaken the others. The shout of alarm was because of an unusual sight in the sky over Charlottetown . Huge clouds of black smoke were rising from the city. This was the most disastrous of the fires which ravaged Charlottetown in the nineteenth century. Fires were inevitable in a town with so many wooden structures. Mass may have been forgotten as the men got into a boat and rushed to the aid of their friends in the city, includingjims' brothers Moses, Peter, and possibly Lawrence and William. Although the people fought the fire bravely, bucket brigades and hand pumps were no match for that inferno. The following is a brief description of that fire. Four city blocks were laid waste by a disastrous fire set, it was thought, by an incendiary. The Charlottetown Herald described the blocks the fire had ravaged: '...nothing remains to tell that they were ever inhabited, except blackened timber, smoldering ruins, and long rows of desolate, naked chimneys.' (Rogers 13) In the summer of 1870 Jim may have received news from brother Piery in Summerside telling James that he had recently completed a new convent and that he had more work than he could handle moving houses into Summerside . Jim perhaps replied that Lawrence Patrick and his wife had a new son born in January and that their sister Catherine had married John Corrigan and moved to . Their brother Moses seemed to be doing okay as a painter in Charlottetown . Between the years 1871 and 1874 Jim's brothers Moses and William and his sister Elizabeth all married. The family was saddened to hear of the death 40
