	Report on a Diamond Drilling Program, North River, Victoria County, Nova Scotia
		A copper occurrence exposed in a large outcrop of Indian Brook Granodiorite along North Brook, Victoria County was evaluated in a 1994 Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources mineral inventory study.

		Three holes were drilled by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources in 1995 to evaluate the Cu-Au potential of this occurrence.

	The Railways of Canada Archives -- Middleton & Victoria Beach Railway
		In western Nova Scotia, the Middleton and Victoria Beach was essentially an industrial railroad to give the Torbrook Iron Mines access to a port without having to use the Dominion Atlantic Railway.
		It was soon acquired by the Halifax and South Western, to give its former Nova Scotia Central line access to Annapolis County and a port on the Bay of Fundy, and ran general freight as part of the Canadian National until finally abandoned in the early 1980s.
		Among its incorporators were Orlando T. Daniels, later an attorney general of Nova Scotia (and extraordinarily proud of it), and John Ervin, perhaps the father of incorporated Bridgetown.
