missioners preferably would discuss
subjects outlined in the original pro-
posal merely that the preference
would be given to the border situa-

he regarded the last Mexican note as
one of complete compliance with
American suggestions, and it was on
that basis Mr.. Polk took the matter to

About the time of Mrs. Emery's
death, (our first postmistressO ar
rangements were made to have the
mail delivered at way station, some
three miles out, on the line of the
Somerset R. R. and Moses Winslow
was appointed postmaster with c. A.
Holway to carry the mail. This ar
rangement was not followed long as
a line of stages was running from
Waterville to North Fairfield by the
way of Center Fairfield and it was
found expedient to continue the line
through to Larone and the line so
remains today. After/Mr. Winslow's
death Mrs. Winslow was appointed
postmistress which Office she held
until moving away, when Mrs. A. X.
Libby took charge with Mr.. Libby on
the line. After "A. X. Libby came
Mrs J. F. Libby who held the office
until the present incumbent, VIII +.
Winslow was appointed. This brings
us down to 1916, when we find a still
small but prosperous village, ten
miles from the city of Waterville and
ten from the villages Of Oakland and

Fairfield, six from Skowhegan and
three from Norridgewock. In fact,
Larone proper consists of portion
of the last three named towns, as
one of her dwellings is on the dividing
line between Fairfield and Skowhe-
gan, while a walk of but a few rods
will take one over the line into Nor
ridgewock This corner line stone
which is marked on the south with
the letter F. (Fairfield) on the north
with the letter B, BLOOMFIELD now
Skowhegan,) and on the west with
the letter N (Norridgewock) is placed
in the field of Will P. Winslow and
but a short distance from the high
ways leading to Skowhegan and Nor
ridgewock. There are ten residents
whop ay tax in two towns and
three who pay in three towns. The
other inhabitants being so fortunate
as to live in one town only.
Larone is not only small now, but
is undoubtedly destined to always re-
main Larone, and at this date can
boast of but twenty-five families,
mostly farmers, who, as a general
rule are prosperous and well to do,
owning their farms and many with a
surplus securely invested. peacefully

The United States Geological Sur
vey of which DR.. George Otis Smith

inclined, and content to permit the
world to wag along in her regular
course, willing to be carried around
with her once in every twenty-four
hours, content that the sun should
rise in he east and set in the west
and that the day should follow the
night as from time immemorial. To
be sure Larone has the usual amount
of village gossip, is interested in viii
lage, town, state and national affairs,
taking in politics a decided stand for
republicanism and with all a most
patriotic sentiment as will be shown
later on. She cannot boast of high
honors politically, as none of her cit
liens were ever called beyond the
State Representatives chair, but is
content to let others take the honor
and mayhap dishonor, that so often
follow promotion in politics. On the
other hand she can show many who
have promoted themselves financially
at least, and at the good old free and
independent profession Of farming.
And but few abandoned farms can
be found.
