The house now occupied by William
Jewell, nearly opposite the Maine
Central depot. has an interesting his
tory. For a great many years it has
stood where it is now. but more than
one hundred years ago it was located
UP town and was used as a store. y
man named Barker was the owner at
that time. He was a rank Tory. and
when Arnold's army began its eXpedi
ton to Quebec. its vessels came up the
river within two miles of the city,
where they disembarkad. BateauX
were to be built to be used in sailing
up the Kennebec but the supply of
nails gave out, and some of the troops
started out on foraging expedition.
Coming to the city they discovered the
fact that Barker was q fuil-fedged
Tory. in hearty sympathy with Eng
land, and so they entered his store and
took away with them his entire stock of
nails, which proved sufficient in
quantity to finish their work. When
the British evacuated Boston a few
years later, Barker went with them.
and located in Nova Scotia.
