The Charlottetown Patriot, January 17, 1878, carries a report from the Summerside Progress of January 14, 1878, showing

the number of total abstainers in the Catholic Total Abstinence Union at Somerset to be 100; and mentions Rev. P. Doyle and Martin Somers as "enthusiastic advocates of total abstinence in Prince County.

Examiner, November 10, 1890, quoting from the Summerside, Pioneer, states that it is the intention of the parish priests at Miscouche and Kinkora to establish branches of the League of the Cross in their parishes.

Information obtained from the Examiner, 1892 and 1893. "Social at Emerald, in Examiner, February 12, 1894.

In 1879 Somerset voted 28 to 7 against allowing the Canada Temperance Act, (Examiner, January 2, 1979). In 1884 the vote to repeal the Canada Temperance Act, at Somerset was 62 to 16, (Examiner, February 8, 1884). In 1893 The vote at Kinkora against prohibition was 174 to 52, (Examiner December 28, 1893). The 1893 vote seems unusually large, and may not

be correct. In 1906 the Kinkora vote to repeal the Scott

Act in Prince County was 68 in favor to 17 opposed,

Using the given profit of $800. from the tea party in 1900

as an average amount, and an average profit of $120. from an evening social, I calculated a total income between 1892 and 1901 of some 310,000. (Personal correspondence with Rev. Francis J. Corcoran, Parish Priest at Kinkora in 1982, suggested that the cost of building a church at St. Teresa's Parish in 1912, of the same size and architecture, was about $24,000.) Other sources of funding included personal donations, such

as the late Dr. Michael Wall's gift of $1000. The total

cost may be somewhere around 315,000. Official costs were not

available from the parish of Kinkora or the diocese of Charlottetown.
