has never wavered, but toiled on pa

change. He was appointed postmas-

serving four years. He was rendered
the congressional nomination in 1898,
but declined. Then came the Secre-
taryship of the Democratic State
Committee, an election as delegate to
the National Conventions at Kansas
City and Denver nominations for the
office of governor, and for congress
in 1908 and 1910. This year an ad-

wiped out, and substantial victory
won. In conducting his campaign
Mr. Gould did little to attract the lime
light of publicity, but worked quietly
among the rural voters, where moth

Judgment.
Looking back over this active life,
Mr.. Gould takes the greatest pride

most venerable and one of the most
esteemed citizens of the upper Ken
nebec, passed away at his home at
West Forks at the advanced age of
over 80 years.
For period of more than 60 years
he had been a resident there and for
great part of that period previous
to 1890 was extensively engaged in
the manufacture of cant-dogs. the
"Durgin Dog" being the standard OF
merit among all river men. Prob
ably no man in the county enjoyed a
larger acquaintance than Uncle
Charles" previous to his retirement
from active business.
For over half a century he was af-
fiicted by deafness, and in the last
year of his life was stricken by the
loss of his sight, yet neither of these
troubles dimmed in the slightest de-
gree his cheerful disposition, and the
affection displayed towards him by his
sons, daughters, grandchildren and
friends was most remarkable.
Funeral services were held at the
home, Friday afternoon and on Sat
urday morning the body was taken to
Bingham for burial in the family lot
beside his wife, whose death occurred
few years previous.
