Biographical history
The Glad Tidings was built in 1884 by William Oliver for the marine mission work of Thomas Crosby, who had travelled by canoe up to that point. For most of its existence it was stationed at Port Simpson, with either Thomas Crosby or William Oliver serving as master. Ministers who served on the ship with Oliver as master include C.M. Tate, when the ship was stationed in Nanaimo for a brief period in 1890, and W.H. Pierce from 1895 to 1897. Various ministers made use of the ship from 1899 until it sank in 1903.
