A Hint at Maine's Progress.

The announcement recently made
in the Maine dailies of the completion
of thirty thousand dollar school
house at Mexico in Oxford county,
calls to the mind of f. q. Danforth of
this place his Impressions of that sec
ton, at the time that he passed
through the town on foot in about the
year 1868. Mr. Danforth was a stu
dent at Kents Hill at the time aud
passed one of his vacations, in the
year mentioned, in a tramp through
some of the towns in the Androscog-
gin river valley. The town of Mexi-
co, where the new schoolhouse now
calls the incident TO mind, was then
farming community, with no village
within its borders. Mr. Danforth
stopped for the night at the best
farmhouse he could find. 1t was
small structure, roughly built and
battened with slabs. The bill of fare
for supper was little more than roast
potatoes and corn bread and the only
variety at breakfast was the addition
of fried salt pork. Everything indi-
Gated the hard struggle that the
farmers of that vicinity were waging
with nature in their efforts to make a
living. The town now has a popula-
ton of nearly 1000 with an assessed
valuation of about a half a million
dollars and, has completed a school
building which, Judging from the sum
expended, must be the equal to the
best in most New England communi-
ties. 1t is story of progress which
has been going on i'll many Maine
towns but which we do not appreciate
unless attention is called to it by a
comparison of conditions at the be
ginning and end of a forty year period
such as Mr. Danforth is able to make.
The man who lives for himself alone
dies unmourned.
A woman with a fiery temper isn't
necessarily warm hearted.
The Somerset reporter., 1908-02-20
Equity Hearings.

Judge Leslie G. Cornish of Augusta
was In town on Tuesday and yester-
day, presiding in the trial of some
equity hearings at the Court house.
The title of the first action tried was
Fred F. Lawrence, trustee in Bank
ruptcy VS. Jos. A. Roderick, Sophia Z.
Roderick and Parker NJ Sanborn, the
latter being a party in the suit solely
by reason of a mortgage for $l474
which he holds on the house on Maple
street occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. j. A.
Roderiok, the first two parties
named. This house was decided to
Mrs. Roderick By the husband y une %,
1905 and it is alleged by Mr.. Law
renee, the trustee in bankruptcy
above named, that this sale was in
defraud of the creditors of Mr.
Roderick, who went through bank
ruptcy in February 1907. The second
action was to establish the owner
ship or equity in a ten years lease of
a cottage lot in Smithfeld on the
shore of North Pond. The lease was
taken in the name OF Sophia Z.
Roderick in the fall OF 1905 and a
cottage was built on the lot the fol-
lowing summer. The attempt is
made to show that the equity should
be in the name of Joseph A. Roderick
The third action was in reality a
reference case, coming before Judge
Cornish in that form by agreement
between opposing counsel. 1t re-
terred TO the ownership OF the goods
in the Skowhegan Market, conducted
by Jos. Roderick, which were trans
ferred to his wife, Sophia f. Roder-
lex by assignment of mortgage held
by Parker NJ. Sanborn, it being claim
ed by Mr.. Lawrence, as trustee i'll
bankruptcy, that the circumstances
were such as to make this convey
ance void.
MIR. Lawrence conducted the cases
in behalf of himself as trustee in
bankruptcy; Jos. A. Roderick was
represented by Forrest Goodwin,
Esq, and Geo. w. Cover, Esq, APP
peared as counsel for Parker NJ. San
born.
