attention to the infinitely more i'm

things necessary to produce better
race of men and women along the

the lower animals. But legislation
is at last being slowly turned In this
direction in all civilized lands. and
undoubtedly the time 10 coming
when marriage will be regulated by
scientific as we'll as sentimental and

Bitch in our State Legislature rec
cgnizes this awakening common

of epileptics and others afflicted
with grave maladies and to require
ample notice of approaching mar

It would afford us genuine pleasure and provide novel amuse- ment for our younGster to turn back the flight of time to those good old days when father smok- ed clay pipe filled with home spun hurley, wore lindsey breech- es and picked his teeth with a goose quill; when mother wore full size skirts with a large roomy secret pocket, wore her natural hair in pretty top-knot fashion and led the children to church and Sunday school every Sabbath day. In those days colas. sum- daes and adulterated foods were unknown, auto joy rides and late hours were disdained. then pa- per-sack living and thirty-day credit were not II c e q e d.

CHAPTER XVII (1S22-3.)

On the first day of Dece mber, died,
very suddenly, Col. Thomas Cunningham,
aged forty three, native of Peterhoro,
N. H., who came here to reside in 1903.
He held the office of deputy for many
years under several successive sheriffs,
various military offices, and was the
landlord, in succession, of the Huse Tav-
ern, the Sun Tavern, the Whittier Tav-
ern. and the Washington Hotel, better
remembered perhaps as Cunningham's
Hotel, which stood next westerly
from the New England House; he
was occupying it at the time OF his
death. Mention has been made of him
more than once in proceeding chapters;
something more is due to his memory.
He was gentleman of fine personal ad-
dress, prompt and energetic officer, an
exceedingly affable and popular landlord.
He was thoroughly identified with the
movements of the day which had for
their object the advancement of our
local interests, ard the general feeling
pervading the community on the occa-
sion of his death was that we had lost
one of our most active, genial, gentle
manly fellow townsmen. He left son
and several daughters, all of whom who
are now living reside in Baltimore.
Later in the month Hiram Emery, a
young man aged about twenty-five,
uncle of our fellow citizen Mr.. Hiram
Emery Peirce, was suffocated in the
cabin Of the schooner Hope then lying at
one OF our wharves. 1t was inferred by
the inquest held on the occasion, from
the position in which he was found in the
morning, at the foot of the companion
way, and from the general appearance
of things in the cabin, that his bed
clothes caught fire, from a candle prob
ably, while he was asleep, and that on
awaking and attempting to find his way
out he was suffocated and fell where he
was found.
Prominent among the business men
who came to the place this year were
Samuel A. Moulton, Hutson Bishop and
Frederic A. Lewis. Mr.. Moulton, in
connection with William l. Cross, under
the firm name of Cross and Moulton,
opened a shop on Main street Just below
its junction with Washington street,
where they carried on the business of
''tin plate and sheet iron working" it
was the first shop of the kind in town.
The firm was dissolved in 1924 and Mr..
Cross returned to Portland. In 1874 Mr..
Moulton removed to Boston, but in 1853
returned and resumed his former bust
ness in the brick store on Church street
now occupied by Gates and Stickney.
