heart was reft of all defenses. Acute
appendicitis and peritonitis, the doc
tors said, took his life, but we who
know him and loved him knew that 1t
was service and a life long devotion to
duty that took him away. His knarl-
ed limbs and bent figure told better
than pen can say the STORY OF hard
work He was born siXty-seven years
ago. in Saint Marie, on the banks of
the Chaudiere in Quebec province. He
was of old pure French stock, of that
blood that was split on the Plains. of
Abraham from the brave hearts OF
Montcalm's staunch host. His love of
sentiment, his gentleness, his devotion
to friends and loyalty to those he low
ed his old fashioned chiNalry and
courage indicated the best and the
finest traditions of the French of old
Quebec and France.
Peter Pomlow came to Maine as a
small boy and settled in SkO@ hogan
with the early French emigrants. He
worked in the woods in winter and on
the river in the spring and summer
For thirty-nine years he drove the first
section of the Kennebec out of Moose

and efficient men who helped TO make

boy for EleaZer Coburn, father of
Abner and Philander, and il was his
proud boast thai he had served faith

from whose house he was buried with
all the honors and privileges of a

by his first employer, Eleazer Coburn,
the great-grandfather of his Last en-
ployer.
Forty years ago he married Angelina
Lessor of Skowhegan, and to them
were born four children. two of whom
are living, Allie and Herbert, the lat
ter a non-commissioned officer OF the
United States Army. He was de-
voted husband and father, and the
finest type of French-American citizen.
Everyone in Skowhegan knew Peter
Pomlow and loved the genial, gentle
little man who had always cheerful
smile and CHEEKY word for passersby
/ He will be missed. and after all that is
tribute enough for most men.
