Special Commissioner
The WagonaWo

Mr.. Lee Roy Myers, the president Of
the Savannah Carriage and Wagon Com
pany, which company now operates the
Auburn Wagon Works, and Mr.. Max
Robinson, the manager of the works. were
in Greencastle Tuesday afternoon, and
upon their return a Herald repre-
sentative asked them concerning the
rumored removal to G~reencastle. They
answered that remained entirely with the
people here. Mr.. Robinson said that they
were very well pleased with the people and
that they had received some very pleasant
remarks from the business men Of late,
urging them to remain here, and he
thought it was the desire of the people
that they remain.
He said they were receiving commune
cations every day from G~reencastle, Offer
ing them inducements to come there, but
they have not decided yet what they will
do.
Under the present management the
Auburn Wagon Works has been running
in a 1ourishlng condition and their pay
each week amount to almost a thousand
dollars. MIR. Myers said they are hamp-
cred by the present way of leasing the
plant for short periods, and they cannot
lay in a large stock, for fear that they
might have to move Il at any time.
The sale of the plant today Saturday
will likely settle the question as C
whether the company will continue tc
operate the plant or not. The company
did not bid on it at the sale, which wa!
begun last Saturday and postponed unit

Sweet Singers OF searsport.

CHURCH CHoIRs OF SEARsPoRr Prior to
1860, and few years subsequent thereto, the
choirs of Searsport Congregational, Metho-
dist and Baptist, were considered among the
best in this section of the State The
"singers seats" were well filed, and large
congregations We're present, as a rule. The
excellent sermons by the venerable preacher,
Mr. Thurston, and the vigorous. stirring
music Of the choir, made Sunday day Of
musical enjoyment, as we'll as spiritual
feast. OF the conditions under Mr.. Thurs
tons pastorate, the same also may be said
of the Methodist choir, during the tenure of
Messrs. ScammOn, Arey, Wardwell and
Prince. The Baptist society with tile Rev.
Samuel Avery, pastor also with good
choir, was well supported by the congrega-
ton, which, in the light of today seems bare
liz credible; nevertheless such is the fact.
The musical fraternity was quite numerous
in the town during the period of which we
write, and the interest iii matters musical
was kept at the top notch The singing
school was one of the annual attractions on
winter evenings. Musical conventions were
ASt-'ANi y
as Emerson, Southland, Wilder, and later by
our own townsman, David Mortland, who IN
spite of the conditions that surround a
"prophet in his own country" stands emil
nent to-day among his felowmen. Below
we give the names of members of the Con-
gregational choir: Bass, James Mosman,
Elisha Hopkins, Aonzo Hanson, Henry A.
Weber: tenors, David n. Mortand, Phin-
cas- Nichols, William B. Sawyer; sopranos,
Ellen Mosman, Orianna Fowler, Susanna
Nichols, Henrietta Thurston; altos, Alice
Nichols. Mary Thurston, Caroline Nichols ;
organist Hannah Thurston. OF the Metho-
eist choir the bass were: Benjamin Noyes,
Isaiah Blethen. Woodford tenors,
Levi Trundy, Thomas Sawyer. E. K. Tripp
sopranos, Tabitha Curtis, Nancy Field,
Hannah Ross altos, Emma Ford, Margaret
Field. Mrs. Thomas Sawyer; organist, Della
Moves The Baptist choir were: Bass
Chesley Billings, Samuel Mortland, Jackson
Field; tenors, Parker Wood, BENZ Small,
Henry Darling; sopranos, Mrs Eliza Per-
kins, Angelina Johnson, Emma M. Billings
altos, Mrs. Lydia Carver, Anna Gordon,
Mary A. Havner; organist, Mary Ellis. The
Dulcimer was the popular book of church
music, containing several excellent anthems,
and many of the standard tunes-music
that touched the heart. If one could but
hear again the singing and the sermons of
| those days. We wish not to be understood
as looking backward with regret, or longing
for return to bygone days, but we would
| like some of the inspirations impaired by
| the music of such pieces as Duke Street,
| Federal Street, Uxbridge, etc. How can we
| hear these grand old tunes sung without
| feeling just little nearer to "Him from
whom all blessings flow" TO give God all
| praise for Sweet, Sweet Song
