EASTMAN BROS.& BANCROFT
Thirty -hfth Anniversary of This Well
Known Firm.

Yesterday was a day of peculiar in
terest In the commercial history of East
man, Bros " Bancroft 1t was the 55th
anniversary of the founding of their busi-
ness in Portland.
During the fall OF 1865 E. ID. Eastman
who had just returned from three years
active service during the war together
with his brother b. NJ. Eastman, who
had for several years previous been In
the mercantile business in the town OF
Strong. Me, decided to open dry goods
store in Portland.
They bought out the stock and good
will OF Mr.. 5. b. Gowell on Middle
street, and on November opened their
store for business. On July 4, 1866, their
store was burned to the ground in the
great confiagration of that data.
BY hard work about half their stock
was saved and taken to the houses OF the
members of the firm. Hundreds OF bust
ness men whose places had been burned
were at once looking for stores.
Six hours after the tire started Mr.. K.
ID. Eastman had secured the refusal of a
part of the store 534 Congress street. In
the morning a lease of 1t was signed or
rather for one half Of 1t the owner re-
taining the other half for his own ust
and to this small space Eastman Bros
removed what goods they had saved and
again commenced to do business. Fortu.
nately for them their oss was fully
covered by insurance.
In about six months Eastman Bros
bought out the owner OF the other part
of the store and in addition leased th'
two upper floors of the building. Ii
this store the firm remained till 1880 al
which time MIR. Walter p. Bancroft wa
admitted as a partner and the business
was removed to larger and more comma
aious quarters in the block they now o.
oupy.
MI, Bancroft was soon obliged to retirt
from the firm by reason OF Ill health tn
business being continued by the origina
partners b. NJ. and e. ID. Eastman unde
