This collection consists of one photograph of the bell salvaged from the HMCS "Charlottetown", ca. 1980. The bell from the frigate HMCS "Charlottetown", launched in September of 1943 and then declared surplus and sunk less than four years later, was presented to HMCS "Queen Charlotte", the naval division in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. For years, the bell sounded the watch for naval reservists, sea cadets and navy league cadets during their training periods. In 1964, with the decommissioning of the naval division, the bell was turned over to the Confederation Centre Library under an agreement whereby it may be recalled by Naval Headquarters if another "Charlottetown" is ever commissioned. The bell hangs in the Library with the ship's crest and is rung every evening to warn that closing time is near.

In May of 1906 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, an Army Cadet Corps for senior boys was authorized by the Charlottetown Board of School Trustees, to be known as Number 148 Queen Square School Army Cadet Corps. The first Chief Instructor was Principal James Landrigan, a distinguished marksman. Most succeeding Principals and male teachers became qualified cadet instructors to carry on the well established tradition. The Army Cadet Program offered a opportunity to promote leadership, citizenship, sportsmanship and esprit de corps within a school. This Corps was reportedly one of the best corps in Headquarters Area, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.

The fonds consists of two photographs of St. Joseph's Convent, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, one of the interior of the chapel in approximately 1893 and one of the exterior taken in 1973.

St. Joseph's Convent was at one time St. Andrew's Parish Church, Mount Stewart, Prince Edward Island. The church was moved over the ice to 147 Pownal St., Charlottetown in 1864 to be used as a schoolhouse. Another building was added in 1884-85, designed by Stirling and Harris. In 1916 St. Joseph's School came under the school trustees of Charlottetown and was known as Rochford Square School. The building was demolished in 1979.

The fonds consists of some 33 photographs taken during the construction of the Hillsborough bridge in 1901- 1903. There are also two railway photographs. Photographer is unknown.

On 18 April 1900 an agreement was signed between the federal and provincial governments for the construction of a railway and carriage bridge across the Hillsborough River, Prince Edward Island. This was to constitute part of the Murray Harbour Branch of the P.E.I. Railway and would allow people east of Charlottetown an option other than travelling by ferry to and from Charlottetown or by road around Mount Stewart. Construction was begun in the spring of 1901 by M. J. Haney of Toronto under a detail contract. Twelve spans of steel bridgework were dismantled from a bridge near Derby Junction Station on the Miramichi in New Brunswick and eleven were re-erected and set on newly constructed piers to sit 15 feet above the high water line. The fifth span was a draw span which opened and closed for navigation on the river. In the late 1950's concern mounted that the bridge was growing too old to support the increasing traffic and it was closed for a brief period of time to the intense dismay of Islanders. Although it was reopened, it was soon after replaced by the current bridge in 1961 and was dismantled in 1963. The piers however were never dismantled and are still visible from the new bridge.
