Obituary.
In Memory of Maggie. Padgett.

In the midst Of life we are in in !le: aaa4A ~ p
our midst. He frcqucnts alike the man
sions Of tho rich and the hamleLs Of the
poor. With unrelenting cruelty he dies
his work, leaving sorrow, grief and de-
spair as ioctprints to mark his, visits.
The homo Of Mr.. r. ID. PADGETT was
lately the scene of a visit from the death
angel His eldest daughter, MAGGIE.
born December 9th, 1868, died on the
night Of the 2Sth December, 1880, after
short but very painful attack OF typhoid
fever. Skillful physicians were called
in. and though they were untiring III
their eff IT'S 10 relieve their lovely pa
tient, they were unsuccessful. Friends
and relatives We'd with the anxious pa
rents in tireless nursing, but neither
kill or tender nursing availed 2ught.
Her breath is stilled! Her lovely eyes
forever closed Her voice forever hush
ed! Oh death, why
"Hast thou, with noiseless tread,
Crept in among Life's t-blooming
flowers,
And stolen the bud that sweetest fra
GRANGE shed
Ger bitierest hours?
In Gods eternal choir i
or gathered millions--is ono song unsung
Until she comes; and waits there one
sweet Tyre
With strings unstrung?
Does Jesus think it meet
TO add jewel TO the crown He wears? :?
Or in that deathless land, with bliss re-
plete,
Is thero q constellation incomplete
OF angel stars? ?"
MAGGIE was surprisingly beautiful,
and was loved by all who knew her. The
writer remembers we'll seeing her, a
short time before her sickness, among
her friends and guests. She was dressed
in pure white, and with agladsome smile
of pleasure and love she moved among
them like an angel of light She was q
true christian and loved her Savior, in
whose arms she now reclines, with all
the ardor Of her truthful heart.
Weep not for her, fond parents! She
has gone where no SHOWS ever fall, ana
spring is eternal. No poisonous rniasina
| weights the pure atmosp sphore id that beau-
| tiful land No burning fevers, no ago.
n;.nng pains, trouble her now. Ere this
time, She has clasped III her arms tho an
gel brothers and sisters gone before her.
And happy in { cir embrace, she awaits
your coming. Yet little while aud
"Voice from the spirit land you'll hear,
| An ANGEL notes, mclodious soft and clear,
Bidding you haste to join your lost and
Who rest 1T hoine.''

Bicycle Badges.

The Boston Herald says the best design in
bicycle badges has been invented by Director
Lamson, of Portland, a fine specimen of which
was presented by him to President Pratt Just
after the league met. 1t consists of a suspen-
sion wheel, with its rim, spokes and hubs
about the size of a twenty cent piece, the rim
and hub being in red gold, small diamond
setin the hub, the spokes of plantinum, and
on the spokes three yellow gold wings spread
from the hub, with the letters L. A. W., old
English style, OF red gold, between the wings
on the spokes. The whole is convex, like the
side of suspension wheel, and is mounted on
substantial pin, by which it may be attached
to scarf OF the lapel Of coat, and is very
tasteful, symbolic and unobtrusive 1t is de-
signed for an appropriate emblem for wheel
man to wear at any time, with any suit, much
as the MaSons wear a square and compass, or
the members of the Loyal Legion wear small
bow in the buttonhole, and by which wheel
men may recognize eachs other wherever they
meet. 1t will probably be submitted to the
League of American Wheelmen for adoption
as an alternative badge lighter, more tasteful,
and less obtrusiye than the one already adopt
ed II view of its possible adoption by the
league, and the desrability of controlling it so
that only league members should wear it Mr..
Lamson has obtained design patent On it for
protection

OLD DOCUMENTS.
New Gloucester in 173o-1756.

Mr.. S. P. Ma3berry of Cape Elizabeth sends
us the following:
In April 1879 the LIST clearing in New CLIQUE
ester was made on what is now called Harris
Hill, not over 20 acres. The nearest settler was
Mr.. Collier of New Boston Gray, by trade a
miller, but he devoted most of his time to hunt
ing. His house was about 9 miles distant as
the crow flies.
The first settlers moved into town in 1912
They had ten log houses, and the saw mill
was finished in October of the same year.
They put in several small fields of rye the
same fall.
The French and Indian war broke up the
settlement, and it remained SO until about
1856.
Their principal dependence for hay was on
the meadows, which we cross in approaching
the Grand Trunk depot. That supply was
limited, as in 1881 the selectmen estimated
there was not exceeding fifteen acres of mead
ow land cleared in town.
Mr.. Mayberry also sends the following copy
of an old document:
Soon after the sd Grant,we built near Twen-
ty Houses and saw mill but the last Indian
war they were Destroyed. In the year 1856
and with CRATE Difficulty we Built Block
House very commodiously situated and
picketed round with Watch Boxes on
Block House and on 9th Pickt One hundred
and ten feet square. There is now about
1Wouty ucu DIT Su NEW GlOuCeSt6F a DumDer
of which have Families and some small stock
of cattle and much Exposd to Cruel Enemy
and as we have been at CRATE expense in so
far settling sd place. Your Memos humbIy
pray that number of the inhabitants of sd
New Gloucester may have from the province
or relive us any other wayas Your Hounours
Crate Wisdom shall see reasonable & as Duty
Bound Your Nemesis shall ever pray.
