GENERAL HoRATIo BRIDGE.
The Last of Long Prominent Maine
Family.

Dresden, Me-, November 9.-The death
of General Samuel j. Bridge, Dresden's
most prominent son, at the advanced age
of 81 years, has started many trains of
Renaissance among our older residents.
The Bridge mansion is still standing
at Dresden Mills, on the banks of the
Eastern river, and was the stopping
place of all distinguished personages
journeying that way. His grandmother
used to relate that she had counted IS
saddles at one time on the kitchen floor.
General Bridge attended the town
schools of Dresden until the age of 12
years, when he was sent to Wiscasset,
where he was under the tuition of Rev.
Dr. Packard. His mother soon after
moved to Boston, where he fitted for
college, but for lack of funds he never
entered. He afterward was a successful
commission merchant in Boston.
General Bridge was the only living
representative of family that was a
power in civil and political life, some of
whom have held many of the highest of
ices that the American people can grant.
In 1S41 he was appointed appraiser for
the port of Boston, which position he
rlblu JOf Twelve ana nall years, when
his ability was needed for more import
ant work, and he was then made apprais-
er general at San francisco, at that time
being one of the important offices under
the gift of the government, he having
full supervision of all the customs on
the Pacific coast. During his manage
ment of this office, the revenues increas-
ed from $4,000, 900 to 81, 1000, 900.
All New England will ever remember
him as a philanthropist; for his gift of the
John Bridge statue to the city of Cam
bridge. and the John Harvard statue to
Harvard College in Cambridge, also the
beautiful Bridge Academy at Dresden
Mills, which was almost wholly given by
him, and for which he endowed fund
for its maintenance.
In the three towns of Dresden, Lex
ington and Cambridge, there is what is
known as the Bridge Charitable Fund,
the interest of which, he directed, must
be used for the deserving poor. and
many destitute families have been helped
through this fund with flour, wood,
clothing and other necessities.
In 1880, Harvard College conferred on
him the honorary degree of A. NJ. Gen
eral Bridge was never married. He gen.
orally passed his summers in Dresden
aud winters in Florida.

sWINDLED a MAINE WOMAN.
The Serious Charge Against a Young
Man from Massachusetts.

Boston, Mass, Novem Der ga Win
throp, Me-, despatch to the Boston
Herald says:
Mrs. A. G. Flynt Of this place has been
the victim of plot by which she is the
loser of $4,000. She has kept the secret
until within short time, but the loss
preyed upon her mind so much that she
has given vent to her feelings and told
the facts of the case.
Mrs. Flynt formerly lived in Massa-
chusetts. While there she made the ac-
qualntance OF young man, Tho mas
Addison by name, whose intellect was
lar abovesthe average, and whose reputa-
tlon was above reproach. He afterward
enjoyed her hospitality at her home here.
re was not her protege as has been
stated, but only a supposed friend.
Two years ago, while Mrs. Flynt was in
Massachusetts looking over her property,
some of which was situated in West
Roxbury, Thomas Addison proposed that
she give him power of attorney for the
purpose of transacting business in her
behalf. After some talk Mrs. Flynt
signed what she supposed was paper
giving Addison the proper authority to
act; but in reality it was deed convey
ing this property in West Roxbury to
Thomas Addison.
She was greatly surprise ON going to
her property later to find everything re-
moved from the interior-even the gas
fixtures, the steam radiators, and all
things pertaining to the interior, had
been taken out and sold, with the ex-
ceptlon of a piano and chair or two.
She wrote to the lawyer in whose Office
she signed the paper about 1.-The transac-
ton, and received in reply a very saucy
and ungentlemanly letter, stating that
the property had been decided to Addi-
son, and that the deed was properly re-
corded. She Immediately sought legal
advice, and finally the property was re-
decided back to her.
In the meantime mortgage had been
given on the property for $4,000 She took
the property with all the membranes,
and kept up the interest and taxes until
she could no longer bear it, and on Mon
day last the property was sold for the
mortgage, which will take, Mrs. Flynt
thinks, all That was realized
Addison was not alone in this fraudu-
lent transaction
Addison was favorably known here
and news OF his crookedness was heav-
blow to friends here, who pl; cd implic 1
confidence in the man. He helped on the
history of Winthrop, edited by the Blake
Bros, and is a prolific writer on most
any subject
He promised to pay back the sum
taken, which, though it is quite large, it
is possible for him to do, as he is young
man of ability. He acknowledges the
enormity of his wrong doing, and is try
ing to make amends.
