Under the heading, When We Com
PLAIN" the Ellsworth American says

There is living at North Sedgwick a
man whose courage and bravery furnish
, an example to those wont to complain of
their own hard lot. He is known at his
home and at Bluehill. where he formerly
lived as Richard Abbott, the blacksmith.
! In 1904 he was Obliged to go to the hospi-
tai at Bangor and have his foot and sew
erai inches of his leg ampatated because
of gangrene. He was then SO years of
age. In a few months he had foot
fitted and went to work in his shop,
where he continued to work for more
than seven years Then the gangrene
appeared in his other foot, and after
months of intense suffering. he went
again to the hospital, but they told him
they could do nothing for him. He was
then IS years of age. Nothing daunted.
he had Or. Hunt. of Bangor, come to his
house and amputate his foot, as the
other had been, although no one, not
even the doctor, gave any hopes of his
recovery. In a short time he was in a
wheel chair. and soon began to make a
foot like the one made for him at the
hospital. In eight months from the time
of the amputation, with the aid of a
cane, he was walking about the house,
and with the aid of crutehes. walks to
his former shop and into the store, and
is thinking of opening a store on his
own account where he may pass the
time that hangs heavy on his hands.
North Sedgwick is proud of the brave
old man"

One of the fine yachts of the Boston
Yacht Club fleet that stopped over
night in the Peaks Island roads early
in the week was obliged to leave be-
hind a valuable anchor, says the Ex
press. When an attempt was made to
get UP the "kiiiick' it resisted the
united efforts of the entire crew and
finally was cut away. This incident
served to call attention to the fact
that = peculiar condition exists along
the island yacht anchorage bottom. For
many decades yachtsmen and fisher
, men have been putting down moorings
at this point. Frequently during viii
ter storms mooring kegs or buoys have
chafed off and the chains have fallen
to the bottom. One aged native SAYS
that the yacht anchorage is literally
strewn with lost mornings which form
a regular network of chains fastened
securely to granite blocks or other
heavy mooring stones. IT an anchor Is
, dropped and happens TO catch under
these chains 1t might as well be cut
