SAILS OF THE MARITIMES

by John P. Parker, M.B.E., Master Mariner
Published 1960, Second Printing 1961
Hazell, Watson & Viney Lts., Aylesbury and Slough (Great Britain)
There are 2 references to a Langille and a C.C. Langill in this book.
Under "Schooners launched from other Yards, 1880-90", there is this passage:
"In 1882 a small tern, the Leo of 123 tons net, was launched by Langille of Mahone Bay.
This vessel had many owners during her forty years' career and latterly was registered at Charlottetown, P.E.I."
Under "The 1903 Schooners"
J.W. Cochrane also built the Hartney W. of 271 tons net for Captain W.E. Wasson. This vessel had a long life and several owners, including C.C. Langill, J.G. Cochrane and J.E. George. For a period of time she appears to have had French owners but retained her Canadian registry. She was broken up on the beach at Parrsboro in 1903."
I suspect this book is also out of print - I borrowed it from the Prince George (BC) library.
