Speaking Of the history of Bangor
printed in the Commercial each Satur-
day, a well-known Bangor man says
that he recalls an incident of the Brit
ish sojourn IN Bangor in 1915, as re-
lated to him by resident OF that city
who was living at that time. This
man was a Mr.. Treat, who lived near
the Bangor waterworks, the falls at
that point having been named for his
father, Treats Falls. The British came
up to a point where the Ward One
baseball diamond is now located and
from there shot cannon balls upriver.
One Of them landed near the falls and
was picked up later by the Bangor
man In question. When the British ar
rived on High street. they we're lacking
means Of hitchiug their horses, SO went
into the Dole house. where now stands
the residence Of Hon. James F. Single
ton, tore the beds up. taking from
them the cords, and then hitched their
horses with these ropes near the
Hammond street church.
