into paper but the product was poor at
best and there was JOY when it was dis
covered that carbonated soda-ash would
destroy the ink used in printing and that
old books and papers could be reground.
This slmplihed the pulp problem and
mills which had been running days only
were running night and day and the
wheels hummed necessarily.
All this time Mr.. Denison was in the
forefront, watching each new invention
and adopting everything which seemed
to his experienced eye feasible. In 1878,
the Denison Paper Company was formed,
the stockholders being A. {. Denison, his
son, A. T., and his daughter, Mrs. c. M.
Cram. This company also became half
owner in the Bowdoin Paper Manufacture
ing Company at T6psham
This brings us up to the wood pulp
period IN which Mr.. Denison stands out
as the premier OF wood paper makers.
In the early seventies several firms were
using more or less wood and of this the
Denlson company bought big quantities.
In 10 boom in prices sent wood pulp
sky-ward to the tune of seven cents e
pound and the Denson company made a
fifty year contract with the Canton
Steam Mill Co. for their miIl-waste and
erected thoroughly equipped pu mill
at Gilbertville. 1t stands to the credit of
the Denison company, on the book Of in
dustrial history, to be the first to man
ulacture paper maze from wood pulp
alone This they were doing i'll the
eighties.
From this company was formed the Po-
land Paper Company which docs bust
ness today in Mechanic Falls.
Mr.. Denison was married when
young man to Miss Hannah True of
Sutton, VT, by whom he had two chill
dren, son Adna T. and a daughter
Fannie, now Mrs. c. NJ. Cram of New
York. His wife is dead but both chill
dren are now living.
Mr.. Denison was lifelong Universal
list and was foremost in support of the
church at Mechanic Falls. He belonged
to the Masonic fraternity and to the
Odd Fellows, but gave them little of his
time. He never sought public office
though he was sent to the state senate
from Androscoggin county in 1874.
The last years of his life were spent
on Pigeon hill in Poland, where his death
occurred Wednesday.
Mr.. Denison was brother of Mrs. N.
P, Bowman of St. Johnsbury.

BURKE.
Death Of an Old Time Resident.

Old residents will be particularly inter.
ested in the following sketch OF Adna G..
Denison who died at Poland, Me-,
last week. Our account is taken from
the Lewiston Journal:
"He did more than five men to build
up the town of Mechanic Falls"
That was the encomium on the lips of
the town which knew him as all that is
mortal Of Adna c. Denison was today
consigned to the grave at Mechanic Falls.
1t is the highest tribute which the
thriving young town carved out of Po-
land and Minot can pay its former towns
man. Mr.. Denison was essentially man
OF business, and his life is one filled to the
uttermost with the hustle of the worka-
day world. He began young. Born at
Burke, VT, Nov. Is, 1915, he entered a
store at Sutton, VT, Is years later. He
staid in Sutton until he acquired a
thorough knowledge of storekeeping in
all its branches, AND in 1912 moved to
Norway. Here he went into business at
Steep Falls and here his mercantile sa-
gacity came into play.
Everything had to 60 by team in those
days and young Denison, seeing that
there was dollar in hauling as well as
selling, Immediately placed four-horse
teams on the road between Norway and
Portland. He conducted his business on
broad-guage lines, buying from the farm.
ers for cash and selling to Portland
firms, putting in his pocket the profit on
the goods and the teaming AS well. This
trade he expanded till he did in the neigh

When the Atlantic & St. Lawrence rail.
road (Which is now the Grand Trunk)
was built, he saw the chance for business
and established branch stores along the
line OF construction, locating them at
South Paris and Bethel, Me-, and Cor
ham and Northumberland, N. H. He
also ran branch in Auburn. These
panned out excellently and he began
buying property in Steep Falls, ultimately
settling there. In connection with DR..
Asa Danforth he purchased the old gun
factory and began the manufacture of
paper, and later purchased the sawmill
and built large store.
He then moved to Mechanic Falls, tax.
ing with him well. filled pocket.book as
the result of his up-country enterprise
during the war Mr.. Denison bought of
DR.. Samuel Tewksbury OF Portland the
land and water power just below the
main fall and built the Star mill. Later
came the Union mill and in 65 A. c.
benson q Co. bought the old Drake &
Dwinal mill in Mlnot, which they dis
mantled and put in operation as a paper
mill.
These enterprises were started during
the time when paper making was in a
transitory stage. Rags, which were the
accepted material, were getting scarce.
As Mr.. Dennison put it =
We've UNIV appel all the mummies in
Egypt and cleaned out every rag in the
hospitals of Europe, and heaven only
knows what we shall do for pulp stock
now Rye, oat and wheat straws
were brought into requisition and new
machines were constructed to turn this
