\ Bit of Indian History.

Among he early settlers on the Sandy
river, Pennington, there lived in 1870 an
Ind ian by the name of 'Pierpole, " said to
nave been the last one of the famous Nor
ridgewock tribe, that We're the terror OF
the English settlers. Others say he be-
longed to the Androscoggin tribe, whose
home was on that river.
When first known to the W hite settlers,
he lived with the Norridgewocks and
married dark-eyed Hannah Susap, a
daughter of that tribe. She is said 10
have possessed share of the proud spirit
and evil temper of the NorridgeWo
They We're known as warlike and cruel,
and gave more trouble to the settlers
than any other tribe in that region. Her
first daughter, Molly Pierpole married a
Penobscot Indian i'll 17Ss, John Sebatis
by name.
"Pierpole' had two sons, Joseph susap
and Ignoose His daughter Kate married
q Penobscot Indian. Peter Mussel. They
lived for time in Strong and Farm

In 179s the white settlers becoming
more numerous, / he Indian Pierpole, Hith

Fhetis, think, and was supposed to be
under the special control OF a blue spirit
of mischief. Why the blue spirit should
indulge in such vagaries Is hidden, but in
the middle of deep sea nights when the
moon rode in an suspicious quarter, aud
the wind blew with the force and from
the direction necessary for the spell, the
blue hell was bound to make complete
circle, and ring out nine bells stridently.
OF course no one ever heard or ought to
hear nine bells at sea, for eight bells are
as fixed in limit as the deealogue; but this
was promised, Whether the conditions
failed to coordinate, | cannot say, but
though the bell WAS watched by ali sorts
and conditions of men, the occult cere-
mony WAS never performed for our bene-

it was a common event in the other ships
mentioned?
The proverbial desertion OF sinking
ships by rats is founded upon reason, and
undoubtedly occurs, for as rats like to
prowl around footed, and will stick
to one place so long as food is plenty, ii is
probable that the ship they leave is So
leaky and unseaworthy hat their under
deck work is toe wet to suit them.

sTHE NORWAY SHEEP"

The fierce winl. breaking from his bonds, comes
roaring from the Wes';
On every long, deep-rolling wave, the white
horse shows his crest,
As if q million mighty steeds had burst their
masters hold,
For the wild white sh ep of Norway are coming
to the fold.
The storm drum shows its warning sign; the sea
gnlis swoop and cry;
The f1eecy clouds are driven fast across the
stormy sky;
Along the sands the fresh foam gouts in ghastly
sport are rolled.
For the wild white sheep of Norway are coming
to the fold.
Wistful the fisher seward looks, out from the
great stone pier,
Wistful he stands, the breakers call along the
cllHs 10 near.
To hear across the flowing tide the ceaseless
rock-bell tolled,
While fast and fierce the Norway sheep are COM
ing to the fold.
.'The wife aud BARNS will get no bread from yon-
der sea" he thinks,
AS his idle cable by the straithes strains at its
cables links.
Small use to bate the lines, or see the broad'
brown sails unrolled,
When the wild white sheep of Norway are COM
ing to the fold.
God guard the ships at sea tonight the stern
old sailors say,
Straining keen eyes across the waste of heav!ng
tossing spray,
Recalling many bitter night OF storm and dread
of old,
When the wild white sheep Of Norway were COM
ing to the fold.
Oh! there is many an aching heart, here in the
red-roofed town,
As wives and mothers hear the blast come wailing
from the down;
Who knows what tale of death or wreck to- NOR
row may be told,
For the wild white sheep of Norway are coming
to the fold. q
