I boarded the Despatch in May of 1828, leaving Ireland for Quebec, the promise of work, of land. On the evening of July 10, the Despatch ran aground off a barren rocky shore in a place called Newfoundland. "...She could see it now, across the bay off the far shore, a gray form silhouetted against the murk of mist, spray and cloud. Sitting where she knew a run of shoals and low islands barely broke the water in better weather. The wind from the gale was blowing southeast and from the top of the rise Ann could hear more than just waves and wind. Threaded between natures voice was a kind of keening, indistinct cries for help or screams. ...."

James Murdoch arrived in the Musquodoboit valley during the early years of its settlement, helping to lift the spirits of pioneers with the Word of God and giving them hope against an unforgiving world.

"This is it, boys." I gasped, looking right into the eyes of the devil. "This, is the Platinum Snowflake, the long lost jewel of Arthur McPhillian the second." Me, and my two bestfriends, Oliver and Jadyn, had been searching for this treasure ever since the treasure map and clues came in the mail, from an anonymous sender. "I can't believe it." Jadyn examined the jewel - "I can't believe my fucking eyes." she said. Then it happened; It was all a dream. Yes, Oliver, Jadyn, and I were looking for the Platinum Snowflake, but we were no where near finding it. We all come from a small city, called Halifax, which is in Nova Scotia, Canada. One day, I got off the school bus and began to walk home, when my mother texted me asking to grab the mail. So, me being obediant - I did so. And inside that small silver box, was a map - with a clue, that lead to another clue, that would lead to eight more clues after that, and then finally, The Platinum Snowflake. "Have a Sense of Adventure, Oliver." I said. "Fine. But this is a weekend thing, I'm not missing school for it." Oliver replied. And the journey began.
