Subject: RE: The Honest Working Man Explained?
Hi Judy again.
Yes, to the visitor to the Acadian House Museum, not only does Shirley (Doucette) Lowe sing the Bellefontaine song, our group, the West Chezzetcook/Grand Desert Community Interest Group, provides the visitor with a phamplet with the words to the song and if I remember correctly, a few notes of the music as well.
Our Community Interest Group is a registered Charity made up of local volunteers and we have worked hard to restore the Acadian heritage of our two communities. Do drop by when in the area.
When I get back home I expect sometime next week, I will send the words to Adrien.
As to the beauty of the Chezzetcook women, well on our arrival in Chezzetcook from my home province of PEI back in 1954, I remember my Mother commenting that she was surprised at the number of truly good looking young men in the community. As to the women, I do not recall her saying. Of course with 3 young daughters at the time perhaps she didn't want us to know how much competition we were in for??
