The D.G.S. _Minto_ is pictured here icebound between Pictou and Georgetown. _Minto _was one of the early icebreakers launched to fulfill the federal government’s pledge to provide a year-‘round ferry connection across Northumberland Strait&mdashwhich had been a condition of P.E.I.’s entrance into Confederation. More powerful than her predecessor, the _Stanley_, the _Minto_ was built by the noted Gourlay Brothers of Dundee in 1899 and entered service the following year. She served until 1914, when she was sold to the Russian government for service out of Archangel. She was wrecked at Norway in 1915.
