To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL:
[ pom moving to Montville and learning
of smart old man in town your cor
respondent made him a call. Jacob
Griffin of Montvile was born in June.
1905 He was the younget son of Geo.
Griffin, who served in the Revolution
airy war. After the struggle for indie
pendence he married Polly Turner of
tied in Northport. In 1872 the family
moved from Northport to Searsmont.
There were seven children: George, IT,,
Josiah, David, John, Betsey, Sally and
Jacob, the subject of this sketch. The
father died in Searsmont at a good old
age. Mr.. Griffin has ever enjoyed good
health and even now, though the frosts
OF ninety-four winters have sivered
his hair, he is a smart old man and he
seems to enjoy the thought that he is
the oldest person i'll town. He goes
about with d cane and does some chores.
Recently he went to SearsmOnt on bust
ness. Our honored friend began life
for himself at the age of twelve years
when he started out for employment.
He went to Iincolnville to see John
Cross and asked if he wished to hire.
Mr. Cross looked at him and laughing
said, "Well my little man what can you
do?" He told him he could do chores
and help about the farm. Mr.. Cross
set him to picking rocks and said he
could pick more rocks in a day than any
man he could hire He also worked in
Rockland, Thomaston and Liberty
where lie was employed in the tannery
twenty years.
His first marriage was to Miss Lydia
Ann Davis of Montville, daughter of
Elias Davis, the first male child born in
town. By this union they had five chill
dren Nancy born in Searsmont, Isaac
and Joseph born in Montville and Fred
erick born in Palermo. The wife died
and he married in 1884 the widow Ken
dali whose maiden name was Betsey
/ Houston of Unity.
He and his companion are supported
by a pension from the Government;
| having lost a son in the Rebellion upon
whom he was dependent for support.
| When asked if he had picture of him
| self he said that he never sat for pic
ture in his life. ALLEN GOODWIN.

the benefit of $4,000 annually. We
have also responded to other demands.
The appropriation this year for good
roads is $500, 900 more than last year,
and the total for the last two years is
81, 900, 900 more than the total appropria-
tions made by all preceding administra-
lions. Not contented with these liberal
appropriations, we have enacted law
that was proposed by one of your AS
semblymen, Mr.. Plank, by which the
State contributes 80 per cent OF the
cost of your road building where the
money system is inaugurated. We
have been thus seeking to benefit not
only the rural communities, but all sec
tons of the State alike.
Mr.. Bryan's vicious attack upon ex-
President Cleveland continues to at
tract attention and comment. 1t is
really little, if any, short of libelous.
Mr.. Bryan accuses Mr.. Cleveland of
having secured his nomination in 1892
by secret bargain with the tinanciers,
which involved collecting from the cor
porations the greatest campaign fund
the party ever had. Mr.. Bryan goes on
to charge our Democratic ex-President
with having filled his Cabinet with
corporation agents and placed railroad
attorneys on the United States Bench
to look after the interests of their for
mer clients" And he adds bitterly:
He turned the Treasury over to
Wall Street syndicate, and the financial
members of his official family went
from Washington to become the pri-
yate attorney of the man who forced
the Treasury Department to sell him
Government bonds at 105, and then re-
sold them at III. He tried to prevent
the adoption of the income tax provis-
ion, refused to sign the only tariff re
form measure passed since the war;
and, While laundering against trusts in
his messages, did even less than Knox
has done to interfere with their high
handed methods.
Nj. Bryan then goes on to proclaim
Of Nj Cleveland:
His Administration, instead of be
ing fountain of democracy, sending
forth pure and refreshing streams be
came a stagnant pool from whose
waters foul vapors arose-poisonous to
those who fingered near
Mr.. Bryan further speaks bitingly of
Mr.. CleveIand's political crimes, and
tells him that he is held in contempt
by the Democracy The fight is on
he declares, between a Democracy
that means Democracy and a Cleye-
landlsm which means plutocracy."

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an intiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy

unity which is absolutely necessary if
the party is to go into the campaign of
1904 with the least chance of success
Nor is it disposed to allow Mr.. Cleve-

this point it says:

4 CLUBHOUSE ANNOYANCE.

Complaint About Party of Young Men
From Philadelphia Who Recently Visited
Delaware.
There has been some comment re-
Gently about crowd of people who oc-
casionally come down from Phi ladel-
phia and visit clubhouse on the Della
ware River a short distance below
Grubb's Landing.
A few weeks ago, on Sunday, an
unusually large crowd came down.
They we're we'll provided with refresh
ments, which were evidently partalSen
of very freely during the day, judging
from the condition of some of them
when they returned in the evening.
| The majority made the return trip on
one of the p, w. & B. trains and were
so hilarious that they caused other
passengers u great deal of annoyance.
Some people living in the neighbor-
hood watched the actions of the visitors
during the day and feared that it might
| be necessary to inform the authorities,
and it is likely that this will be done
if there is a repetition of the occur
renee.
There are many clubhouses along the
| river between this city and Chester,
and as u rule they are tenanted by
orderly people from winning toH'
Chester and Philadelphia, but occas
sionally there is new crowd, not o
the best element, and usually sucf
people make themselves Objectionable
to their neighbors. No complaint i
heard concerning those clubhouses il
which the people are orderly, bu
where there is disorder complaint
, usually follow.
Something over year ago crow
of men said to be interested in gam
bling rented building short distanc
below Claymont, had wires and tele
graph instruments installed therei1
/ and began operations, but were 500
