The city of Augusta Is justly proud
of the distinguished names connected
withsfts history. 1t has been extremely
fortunate in the ability, the enterprise
and the public spirit of its leading citi-
zens; and it is right that such names
as Williams, Cony, Fuller. Weston,
North, Bridge. Vose, and +Lithgow. 80
closely connected with the early days
of the city and with its progress and
prosperity, should be ever held in rever-
ence by grateful community. NOT
only should we cherish the illustrious
names associated with the past, but
We may also be justly proud of the men
who are guiding the fortunes and ad-
vancing the welfare of the city today.
There is one citizen of Augusta who
stands out above all others, connecting
the past with the present, a potent fac
tor in both eras. He is Augustus
grand old man, James Ware Bradbury,
loved of all men, whom the city Is
honored in honoring. Coming to this
city almost three score and ten years.

college that has ever since been so dear
to his heart, where with Longfelio%,

Cyilec. and others he MAS a naaRher OF
tin most illustfious class any college
ever graduated, Mr.. Bradbury has
been through all these years closely
identified with all the leading interests
of Augusta. AS lawyer, business
man, public servant, and philanthropist
the energies of his magnificent intellect
and the impulses of his noble heart
have ever been unselfishly devoted TO
the welfare of his fellow citizens and
the advancement of his adopted city.
Double years of usefulness have been
spared to him and all have been well
employed.
Just half century ago Mr.. Bradbury
was a member of the United States
Senate, and there with Webster, Clay,

CELEBRATIONS.
Some Occasions Observed by
Augusta in the Past.
The Quaint Old Customs of the
Old Time Celebration.
Speakers and Speeches-Parades and Ban
quets-Joys and Tears.

OF the many celebrations that Au-
guSta has observed in the past one OF
the most elaborate and imposing was
that OF July 4, 1854, which marked the
centennial of the settlement of the city
by the erection of Fort Western. In
those old times the city was like a
large family. There was an abundance
of local pride and patriotic ardor and
any occasion of this nature was entered
into with a heartiness and unanimily
that at the present day is unknown
and can hardly be conceived. The
Fourth Of July in the first half of The
century was always the occasion of an
elaborate patriotic demonstration
with many unique observances now OBJ
solete.
BY public meetings of the citizens and
by special action of the city government
extensive preparations We're made for
the celebration of July 4, 1854. An even
century had elapsed since Fort West
ern, an outpost on the frontier, had
sprung up in the wilderness by The
river, followed by the little settlement,
and the event must be duly observed.
The city assumed the expense and an
The great day dawned at last in per-
feet manner; not a cloud was seen IN
the sky. The morning was ushered in,
as has been the morning OF many a
Fourth before and since, with the ring
ing of bells and the discharge OF can
non. In the early forenoon a grolesque
company Of Augusta fantasies. fol-
lowed by a similar company from Gard
liner. paraded the streets to the great
delight and amusement of the assem-
bling crowds. At 10 O'Clock the great
procession of the day was formed on
Winthrop street near State, under the
direction of All Staples, chief marshal.
The procession included great caval-
cade of citizens, bands of music, the
fire companies of Augusta and other
places with their machines,a floral divls-
ion of over 20 beautiful representa-
lions, and numerous other features.
The procession was of great length
and after moving through the prInci-
pal streets, across the bridge and
around Fort Western, it proceeded to
the grounds in front of the State House.
At the gateway entrance a stand had
been erected for the speakers. The
terraces ascending to the State House
were covered with people and the colon
nades of the building Were crowded
with ladies' The exercises here We're
opened by prayer by Rev. Wheelock
Craig, a native of Augusta and the
grandson of an early settler. B. A. G.
Fuller read the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, and then Judge Nathan Weston,
70 years old, a distinguished descendant
of one of the oldest and most respect
able families of the early settlers, de-
livered the grafton of the day. We are
told that his Grafton was "a finished

phasis and effect, combining an inter-

in New England he came to Augusta
by invitation of the Legislature then
in session. With his suite he arrived
in Hallowell on the steamer Huntress
at one o'clock Saturday morning, July
g. and rode to Augusta in carriage
under military escorts. The city was all
Illuminated in honor of his arrival.
He, passed the remainder of the night
at the mansion of Hon. Reuel Williams
at the corner of Cony and Stone streets.
Saturday forenoon he was escorted to
the State House where he was given an
address of welcome by Governor Dana.
He then addressed the Legislature and
later the great crowd outside. A sump-
tuous dinner was given at the Augusta
house in his honor at which many ma
tional and State nOtables were present,
among them James Buchanan, secre-
tary of state. That night the President
returned to Portland on the Huntress.
Three times General Grant visited the
city. The first time was August 3, 1865,
the day after he had attended the
Bowdoin college commencement exer-
cises. He was received amid the. ring
ing of bells and salute of cannon, and
under a military escort, In a long pro-
cession, proceeded to the State House,
where formal intrOductions were made.
With a large company he dined at the
Augusta house, as the guest. OF the
State. At this time General Grant was
the national idol, and the streets were
thronged to see the man who crushed
the Rebellion. Later when President,
in 1871, he visited the city and addressed
the citizens from a platform in Market
square. Again in 1872 he was IN the
city as the guest of Mr.. Blaine.
When General Sheridan visited the
city, October 20, 1861, he was givena grand
reception. Four hundred school chill
dren, stationed at the southeast juno
ton of Winthrop and State streets,
sang before him under the direction of
Josiah w. Bangs, the thrilling song,
then new, "Sheridan's Ride"

the history of the city have been Joyful

The little town went wild with excite

lectmen caused the bodies to be car

neral was held the day after the trag-
edy. The body of the murderer and
suicide was denied admission to the
meeting house but was detained on the
porch, with the ak and razor spectacu-
iarly displayed on the coffin. There

THE GREAT FIRE
Story of the Greatest Disaster
in Augustus History.
Water Street Swept by Flames
September ~, 1865.
How the City, Phoenix-like, Arose Fairer
from Its Fiery Baptism.

The greatest disaster in the history
of Augusta was the great fire oil sun
day, September II, 1865. which swept
clean both sides of Water street, from
Winthrop to Bridge, consuming over ~
buildings and causing loss OF over
half a million Of dollars. The cOnfia-
grafton may have been blessing IN
disguise, for over the smoking ruins
began to grow the substantial and at
tractive lines of buildings that make
the Water street of today the most
beautiful business street OF any CITY
of equal size in New England; but at
that time the disguise Of the blessing
was very effectuai, and the deepest
gloom and sorrow hung over the desc
lated city.
The fire originated in a new and UNI
occupied tWO-story wooden building
owned by DR.. II. II. Hill, on the east
side of Water street. just above the
foot of Oak street. The adjoining
building on the south, also just erected
during the summer of 1865, was occu-
pied as a store and dwelling by Wade
Chase, and at about o'clock on the
morning of Sunday. September IL. Mr..
Chase was aroused by smoke and the
light of fire from the rear of the Hill
building. The alarm was at once given
and the sleeping city awakened.

in the evening, closed the observances
of the day. Such was the centennial
celebration of the founding of the city.
Other Fourths of July in the history
of the city have been the occasion or
extensive celebrations, and the day
has never passed unObserved. In the
early part of the century the great
national holiday was observed in
spirit now no more. Political FEELING
was SO strong in those times that occa-
sionally the two opposing parties re-
fused to celebrate the Fourth in COM
mon and INDUCED in distinct celebla-
lions. Thus in / 81, for instance, the
two parties had separate PROFESSIONS,
addresses and dinners. The national
Republicans of the city with the HALO
well artillery and the Sidney RIFLES
as escorts and four bands OF music,
formed in procession at the Augusta
house, hitch had just been built, and
marched up State and down Water
streets to a delightful grove on the
Gage place. then unbroken by streets
or dwellings,. Here over 1000 people
were gathered and after a prayer and
the reading of the Declaration of IN
by Richard H. Vose. After the exer-
cises the procession reformed ana
passed through several streets to the
Augusta house grounds where 400 sat
down to a dinner prepared by Landlord
Stevens. Meanwhile the Democrats
had assembled at the Old South meet
ing house where they listened to an
Grafton by James w. Bradbury, then a
young lawyer, few years out OF col
lege. Then they formed in procession,
escorted by the Augusta Light imam
try and a Waterville band and marched
to the State House where dinner was
served in the rOtunda. Each party
put forth every effort to make as I'M
posing demonstI alton of their
strength as possible, and in their re-
spectlve papelS, the Journal and Age,
they wrangled for some time as to
which had succeeded the better.
The fiftieth annivel sary of Amerl-
can independence, July 4, 1926 was OBJ
served in Augusta with great festivlty
Cannon and bells ushered in the morn
ing and then a long pl ocession proceed
ed to the Old South meeting house
which was decorated with festoonS
and wreaths of evergreens and flowers
The prayer was by Rev. Benjamin Tap
pan, the Grafton by William Emmons,
and the poem by Richard H. Vose. The
exercises were followed by an elaborate
dinner at Palmer's hotel. The presl-
dent of the day was Hon. Daniel Cony
himself a veteran of the Revolution,
and one of the speakers was Hon. Ma
than Weston, nearly ninety years OF
age, who had fought side by side with
Judge Cony at Saratoga. Other
speakers were General Chandler and
Peleg Sprague, senator and represen-
tative in Congress.
Another famous Fourth was that OF
1929 when the corner stone of the State
House was laid with imposing Masonic
ceremonies. A vast crowd was present
and Governor Lincoln delivered the ora
ton. Then the procession went to the
Old South meeting house where Daniel
Williams delivered an Grafton, followed
by grand public dinner.

The news of the fall of Richmond and
the close of the war was the occasion
of a grand jubilee, April 3, 1865. The
troops at Camp Coburn paraded the
streets cheering and singing, while
bells were rung and cannon roared.
Governor Cony addressed the troop from
the State House steps. That night the
city was Illuminated more extensively
than ever before in it's history, and
there We're bontires, fireworks and
>colored lights. Close after this gener-
al rejoicing came the terrible tidings of
the assassination of Pr resident Lincoln.
We cannot realize the horror and the
apprehension that filled the public
mind when the telegraph wires brought
the news, early on the morning of April
Is. Mayor Patterson issued a call for
the citizens to assemble the next day,
Sunday, at Meonian hall. The hall was
draped in black and was crowded.
Joseph II. Williams was chairman and
after prayer, scripture reading and
singing, there were addresses by James
G. Blaine, Lot Nj. Morrill, and others.

the procession returned to the court

In later years the deaths of President
Garfield. 1881, General Grant, 1885, and of
Mr. Blaine in 1898, were the occasions
of public demonstrations of sorrow, and
memorial exercises were held, with ad-
dresses by eloquent speakers. The re-
ception given Mr.. Blaine on his return
from abroad was one of the greatest
celebrations in the history of the city.

In speaking of some of the great pub

for moment upon the most unique
and sensational funeral service ever
held in the city. It was far back in
1906, and was the closing act Of the ter
rible Purrinton tragedy. James Pur-
rintOn had moved to Augusta from
Bowdoinham and occupied the farm on
the Belgrade road, that was owned by
the late George Cony. Early on the
