SAME BENCH, SAME SHOP FOR 81
YEARS.
Boston Sunday Globe. ]

With the passing of the month of May,
1907, Moses W. Rich of Belfast, Me-, COM
pletes 50 years Of consecutive work ON the
same bench and in the same shop, while his
shopmate, William A. Swift, is but four
years his junior in that respect.
In the early spring, in 1855, the late
Nathaniel Wiggin moved his shoe shop from
High street to IA Main street, where the
business has been carried on, under sue
cessive proprietors, to the present day.
In May, the same year, Moses w. Rich,
having completed his apprenticeship in the
for Mr.. Wiggin, and on the death of the
latter in 1861 bought the business S.
Mr. Rich was succeeded as proprietor in
1881 by MIR. Swift, who still owns the shop.
Mr.. Rich, however, continued in the shop
as shoemaker and repairer, and has since
bench in the same location as when he be-
gan with Mr.. Wiggin 80 years ago.
MIR. SWift's bench is next in the row and
has been occupied by him 4S years in the
same position.
When he began in the shop Mr.. Rich fixed
pose of finishing "waxed ends," which was
done by pulling the waxed thread rapidly
back and forth around the tack, to give the
thread an even surface, and to tighten the
twist of the strands. The tack is still in
use, although it is nearly worn through by
tu6 udlly VI luo IuI6du dTOuuu IL.
Some time ago Mr.. Rich called the atten-
tion of some of his friends to this tack, and
told them its history. A few days later he
received from them by express, by private
messenger and by mail, numerous tacks,
nails and spikes to take the place of the
veteran when it should become worn
through. They varied in size from lasting
tacks, duplicates of the original, to railroad
track spikes.
When Messrs. Rich and Swift began large
crews were employed in the shops, the
work being chiefly making boots and shoes
to measure, each workman taking the meas
ure and doing all the different processes
from cutting to finishing. Now all this is
superseded by the factory system, and prac-
tlcally no custom work is made in the local
shops. A few men are employed on repair
work, but the old-time shoemaker is rapidly
passing.
When Mr.. Rich went to Belfast he first
boarded in the "Dr Monroe house," So
called, on Main street, and a few years later
! bought the house. He still owns it, and it
has been the only home he ever has had in
the CITY,
He is fond of pets, and for many years
ony of doves, a species of domestic pigeon
very numerous about the streets.
Although his home is in the central part
| of the city, and in the most thckly settled
section, he kept cows for more than 40 years,
supplying milk and cream to his neighbors.
He is also an ardent poultry fancier, and
his eggs and chickens stand high in the esti-
nation of the epicureS.

OBITUARY.

Ella Louise, the little daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Nathan F. Patterson, died at her
home in this city Sunday, May 26th, after
an illness with severe heart trouble and
drOpsy which had afflicted her for two
years and two months. At times her suf-
fering was intense, but she bore it with
patience and grace, forgetting her own
pain in the endeavor to make it easier for
those about her. She was old for her years
and her long invalidism refined her natural
ly sweet and attractive childhood, and while
her going out from the home circle is
mourned she has left deep impression by
her sweetness, gentleness and patience.
Her schoolmates and little friends showed
their sympathy and love in thoughtful at
tentions. The funeral was held Tuesday
afternoon. Rev. Ashley A. Smith of the
Universalist church officiated and eulogized
the short life whose influence for good
must be enduring. Francis X. Pendleton,
Henry Brown, Herbert Patterson and
George F. Darby were bearers. The
