Mirimichi/Merameche

[parfinder]

Was the reference to the logger from Merameche in northern NB a mistake or poetic licence

[GNTLGNT]

...that poetic thing.....

[Frederick J. Parker]

Probably a mistake...I was always told it was "Miramichi", as in the lyrics to "Something to Sing About"...

"I have walked on the strand of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland Lazed on the ridge of the Miramichi Seen the waves tear and roar on the stone coast of Labrador Watched them roll back to the Great Northern Sea ..."

From New Brunswick's Miramichi River come the folk songs 'The Miramichi Fire' and 'The Miramichi' and

Kelsey Jones'

orchestral suite

Miramichi Ballad.Often the word is mispronounced I even misspelled it myself "Never say, "oops." Always say, "Ah, interesting." ~Author Unknown

[Bev Vincent]

I grew up 50 miles from it and I still have trouble spelling it!
