Early Days in the Kennebec Valley.

We give below the second of two
papers dealing with Kennebec valley
history. The first paper was publish
ed in our issue of July 18th.
SOMERSET COUNTY.
This county was incorporated pre- J.
cisely one century ago. On the 3D..
of April 1859 King Charles 1st. issued
provincial charter to Sir Ferdinand
Gorges, granting him more extensive
territory than had been granted by
King James to the Plymouth Colony,
in 1929, in the Kennebec Valley.
This region was called New Somer-
setshire and extended from New
Hampshire line to the Dead River.
1t was afterward called the Province
of Maine, later the District of Maine,
and in 1920 set off from Massachusetts
and called the State of Maine, and the
territory extended from the Dead
River to the present northern bound
ary of the State.
There are at present sixteen coun-
ties in the State but only one retains
the original name that of Somerset
County, for the original was New
Somersetshire to distinguish it from
Old -Somersetshire or In other words
the new county, or the new place for
the county building or the shire or
seat of the county.
The first white men that settled in
Somerset County were Peter How
ard and Joseph Weston. At this time
the county was an unbroken wilder
ness but now there are many beauti-
full fields in the county and the smoke
curls from the quiet homestead OF
the white man In nearly every part
of New Somersetshire

Both William E. Corey, president
of the United States Steel Corpora
ton, who arrived in New York, from
Europe, and Judge Ebert IL. Gary,
chairman of the corporations board
of directors, who sailed for France
had kind word to say for the results
of the tariff revisers' efforts. Mr..
Corey said that in his belief "almost
everybody is satisfied with the bill as
it now stands" and predicted that
the result of the bill's passage would
be a "speedy acceleration of pros
perity and long era of good times"
Judge Gary was equally optimistic.

Boston has always taken particular
pride in this splendid organization,
without question the greatest wo-
mans orchestra in the world, and one
that is as popular in other cities as it
is here at home, even more so. Since
their last appearance here, Mrs. Car

band of young women have toured
the country from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and in the far west they prov
ed to be as big sensation in musi-
cal way as they have been in the east.
