To all who collect stamps:- My hometown newspaper, The Liverpool Advance, had the following article last week:- PORT MOUTON OFFERS STAMP The Port Mouton Canada Post Office will be offering another special commemorative envelope and stamp commemorating the arrival of champlain and DeMonts to the New World. On June 28, Canada Post unveiled the DeMonts at Ste. Croix stamp and which will be combined with a commemorative envelope and local stamp cancellation. Local artist Roger Savage designed the Port Mouton envelope while Kyla Williams esigned the cancellation stamp. ------------- For the many who might be interested in the Acadian festivities in parts of Nova Scotia, Port Mouton (10 miles west of Liverpool) will be one place to visit. The explorers settled here for one winter, but later founded Port Royal with a better climate.
