The Ashland correspondent of the Aroos-
took Herald writes of J. Dorman, who died
at Ashland. Nov. "a, a. follows: Mr. Dor
man came from Cherryfeld to this place IN
1888, being among the very first settlers. At
that time there were no roads, and he. with
several companions, followed q spotted line
from Patten. There were but one or two
small choppings where the village of Ashland
now stands. He built the second frame house
in the town, carrying the boards to cover it
from the river, distance of nearly a mile,
through the woods, not having a team and
there being no road. Mr.. Dorman was the
man who notified land agent Mcintyre that
the Provincials were trespassing on Uncle
Sans territory, and he used jokingly to say
that he was the cause Of the Aroostook war.
In March, 1910, having provided q rough
home for bis family he moved them in by
way of Patten, the road having been cut out
as far as Masardis. thence down the river on
the ice. Notwithstanding the hardships Of
pioneer life, Mr.. Dorman lived to see the un-
broken wilderness become thriving and
prosperous town, and died, surrounded by
his children, having exceeded his three score
and ten years. He was Granger and a
Mason and was buried with Masonic honors.

FROM PORTLAND.
A Mother Petitioning the Probate Court
to Adopt Her Own Child.

PORTLAND, Dec. 4.
a curious case came up in the probate
court today, mother petitioning to adopt
her own child. Mrs. Martha Dean allowed
the family of Chas. N. Davis to adopt one of
her children. Mr.. Davis worked for the
Maine Central and was killed few weeks
ago. His wife died of heart disease few
days later. The child of Mrs Dean was
therefore left without a home, it being legally
adopted, and now Mrs. Dean has been oblig-
ed to petition that she may adopt it. She
was allowed to do so, but guardian was ap-
pointed for the child.

ing About Three Tons.

Especial to the Kennebec Journal
GARDINER, Dec. H.
Yesterday afternoon at about 8 o'clock.
Herbert, son of Frederick Lawrence, aged
about IL years, fell from a load of coal on
which he was riding. The wheel of the cart.
which contained nearly three tons of coal,
passed directly over his head and neck. He
was taken up and carried to DR.. Turner's
oifice' and from there to his home on Spring
street. He remained unconscious for about
two hours. He bled freely from the throat and
ears. 1t is impossible to say accurately how
bad the injuries are, but his recovery is very
doubtful. He was attended by Drs. Turner,
Strout and Sawyer.
