In 1865 the Note Book man, then a mere
boy, had the honor to be neighbor to a
member of the legislature. Asa I. Talbot
was not a statesman, though the Note
Book man st that period III his life could
hardly have been convinced of the fact.
He was representative to the Legislature
and occupied seat SIS; his name occurred
daily in the roll calls of the house as print
ed in the Hennebec Journal, which was at
that time a daily visitor to the Note Books
home. But with the dissolution of the
Idea that his old neighbor was statesman
has come the knowledge that he was a
practical man of good common sense. just
the kind of man who sees things right and
acts upon his own good judgment.
