Built in 1816 for John Slade, one of the most influential merchants in the Newfoundland fish trade. By mid-century, the home was taken over by Slade and Co.'s former bookkeeper; when he retired, it was bought by his partner, Henry Earle. Earle Sons and Company operated a successful import-export business for many years, but were forced to close following the collapse of the Labrador fishery. Original artifacts showcase how the merchant class lived during this era.
