In Guysborough, a fire destroyed the initial Black settlement in 1784, and the survivors were relocated to remote and infertile Tracadie—3000 acres of scrub and stone that was better than nothing, and often little more. In Digby, Brindley Town was built, then displaced, then built again, each move set in motion by the bureaucracy of dispossession.
