Dwelling

Marquis de la Roche brought convicts along with him to settle in New France but they refused to settle there and the group revolted against their leaders. Marquis then devised a plan according to which, he sent convicts to the barren Sable Island with no trees. The convicts did not get back from there instead started using mud and shipwrecked timber to build dwellings and managed to live there.
