Moody PADDY’S ISLAND Named after Paddy Houlihan, a prospector. In 1931 Paddy lived on the first big island south of the Prince Albert mine and it was called Paddy’s Island. When the war started Dr. Torrington of the Geologic Survey from Ottawa came out looking for some rare mineral for war purposes. I took him to a small un-named island just North and West of Lookout Island where he sampled several very narrow veins of white quartz. Some time afterward he sent me the printed report with the map, showing they named the island Torrington Island. When the province printed their map of the lake they changed the names calling the large “Paddy’s” island on the west side of Torrington, and the small Torrington island in the north Paddy’s”. They were notified of the error but did not change it. To the old Indians this island (west side) is known as “Mamequesic” Island. On the East side there is a pictograph, but Rod McDermott and I have never been able to find it. George Custer states it was on this island that the Mamequesic and the first Indians procured their colours for paints.
