It was around this time that a young man from Cable Head entered into the priesthood. Peter Mclntyre became the first Priest from St. Peters to be ordained into the priesthood when he was ordained in Quebec on February 26th , 1843. He went on to become Bishop of Charlottetown in 1860 and served until he died at the age of 73 on a temporary visit to Antigonish, Nova Scotia on May 1st, 1881. (42) His remains were taken to back to St. Peters and lie buried in a vault beneath the church. The inscription on the tomb located in the basement of the church reads as follows: Sacred to the Memory of RT. REV. PETER MCINTYRE , third Bishop of Charlottetown . For a period of forty-eight years his zeal as Priest and Bishop ennobled God's worship, encouraged learning, and solaced the sick. He died suddenly at Antigonish XXX April MDCCCXCI in the seventy-third year of his age. His remains lie in the vault of this Church which he erected to God's glory and which God's order of events has made His servant' s monument. May he rest in peace. Father R.J.
