A Day in May at the Dunk
Collection Search
Description
Born in Charlottetown on the
second day of 1879, John James
Enman, better known as "J.J.,"
was an Island newspaperman for
65 years (the last 10 on a casual
basis after his retirement). He
began his career on a weekly, the
Charlottetown Herald, at the age
of 17. At his retirement from the
Summerside Journal in 1951 he
had worked for most of the newspapers
on the Island — and during
his time there were still many independent,
fiercely competitive
sheets. The Guardian disparaged
the politics of the Patriot (and
the Examiner), while the Journal
often feuded bitterly with the
Pioneer.
