Portland Sixty Years Ago.


Mr.. EDrTOR.-In your extracts from DIR.
True's article with the above caption, are sew
eral errors which are obvious to old residents,
the first of which is the statement that liking
street, since called India street, seemed to be
the eastern limit Of the town.
AT the time mentioned 1920 and many years
previous, there were, east of this limit one
fourth of mile of Fore street, part of Sum-
ner street, part of Middle street, and the
whole of Hancock. Mountfort and Adams
streets, and Westinghouse court. Most of
these were then thickly built up with dwelling
houses.
Another error is the assertion that "Where
Cumberland street now is was an open pas
ture." The facts are, Cumberland street was
laid out in 1900, and houses were erected on it
as early as 1902 by Richardson and Newman.
In 1904 at least seven houses were built on t.,
of which l can name the owners. The writer
should have said Oxford street instead of Cum
berland street. A like mistake is the state
ment that "Green street was the principal
street for retail with the farmers. The street
received the not very savory name from the
farmers of Huckler's Rosc." In 1920 there was
not a store on Green street, except one on the
north corner OF Main, now Congress street.
There was soap and candle factory on the
east side-all the rest above Cumberland street
was occupied by dwellings. The name
"Huckler's Row." was given to range Of
perhaps half dozen separate wooden stores
of various sizes, in which groceries and liquor
were the principal commodities kept for sale.
This row was not on Green street, but on the
southeast side of main street," facing down
Green street. Over one of these stores was
old Union Hall, which was burnt and rebuilt
in 1926. w. g. :

The Triennial Festival.

Tie triennial festival of the NJ. G. M. Asso-
citation will be given tonight at the hall of
Mechanics Builning, and the indications are
that will be very successful. F. Fl. Fassett,
ESQ.,, will deliver the address and the music
will be under the direction of Mr.. j. B. Coyle
Jr., assisted by the State street choir. 1t is
expected that the opening exercises, including
the address, will occupy about an hour, after
which supper will be served, and the COM
mittee having the festival in charge have
made extra exertions and are confident that all
will be fully satisfied. TIE President of the
Association, Mr.. Ambrose Giddings, will then
deliver an address of welcome. Toasts will be
read and responded to by several of the gentle
men connected with the Association, as well as
by invited guests. The triennial festival has
been one Of the pleasant features of the
association since 1926, and the festival of to-
night, it is believe, will be the equal of any
preceding it.

seemed to him highly improper that one who
might be the object of criticism by the direc-
tors should be obliged by the duties of another
office to meet with them.
Mr.. Jose moved a committee to nominate a
candidate for secretary, and Mr.. Jose, DR.. Gil
man and Mr.. Thomas were appointed, and re-
ported the name of DR.. Lewis W. Pendleton
who was elected.
A ballot was then taken for two directors in
place Of Mr.. Jose and Mr. Thomas, whose
term of Office expired with this meeting.
On motion of ex-Gov. Perham both were
voted for on one ballot, and H. N. jose and
w. w. Thomas were reelected.
The following gentlemen were chosen to
serve as the standing committee:-I. T. Dana,
j.. B, Brown, S. E. Spring, w. L. Putnam, E.
II. Daveis.
Hon. w. w. Thomas said that he thought it
well to say that the hospital was never in a
better condition than at present.
On motion of Hon. w. W.. Thomas the
thanks Of the board were returned to DR.. Gil
man for his services as President and to DR..
Gerrish for his services for ten years as Secre-
tary.
On motion of DIR. Gerrish the meeting ad-

years ago he removed to Aroostook, when res
idents there were few, and engaged in lnmber-
Ing upon the Aroostook sriver. He made for
himself farm and home at Portage Lake,
where ne resided many years. He has been
wen known all over the country, as we'll as in
the Provinces and elsewhere, honored and re-
spected for his enterprise, industry and integ-
rity, beloved for his purity of life and eminent
social and benevolent qualities of his head and
neart. In 1854 he represented Aroostook in
me senate OF Maine, being elected over the late
hon Shepard Carey who for twenty years
had represented Aroostook either in Congress
or the Legislature of Maine. He was former
~ wing of the old school, but upon the. or
SANITATION Of the Republican party became a
member OF it, to which organization he ad-
hsred with answering fidelity to the close Of
