St. Peter's Cathedral Archives houses and makes available the Cathedral official archives, along with archival materials related to the church community in Charlottetown and across Prince Edward Island.
The photograph is a full-length portrait of Reverend Joseph Newton Smith. The handwritten note on the back of the photograph reads "Rev. Newton Smith Harlow." In 1868 Smith was named as vicar to St. Mary Magdalene, Harlow. Smith was also a founding member of the Society of the Holy Cross.
The photograph is a northeast view of the exterior of St. Peter's in winter. There is a split rail fence around the church and no houses, and the ground and trees are covered in ice and snow. Apparently the photo was taken after an ice storm. The photograph is undated but the absence of houses and the square bell tower suggests it is from the late 1800s or early 1900s. More information is needed.
The photograph shows the baptistry in St. Peter's Cathedral with the children's corner built in memory of Sister Theresa Cundall. The baptistry was added to the church at the same time as the Canon Simpson Memorial facade around 1924.
The photograph shows, from left to right: Clerical secretary of the Diocese of Nova Scotia; Archdeacon White; Archbishop Clarendon Lamb Worrell, and Reverend Canon E. M. Malone standing outdoors at Holy Trinity Church in Georgetown, PEI.
