know French, and he wasn't aware
of the fact that everything In n sea-
coast town like Brest Is named after

Therefore, when he walked along
the streets reading the signs his eyes
began to open wider and wider. Here

tiles. receiving many commendations

The Belfast Baptist church was or.
ganized in the early 1Soos. The
first efforts in behalf Of a society
were commenced in 1909 by Elder
Isaac Case Of Thomaston and on the
18th Of July that year a church was
organized. "The principal motive for
doing this" says williamsofis His.
tory Of Belfast, was the religious
condition OF the community, which
for new place was as immoral az
most any place and because little or
no vital religion characterized the
old Congregational church"
The first edifice was built in 1877
on the spot where the present church
now stands. 1t was remodeled in
1869. Other improvements have been
made from year to year until in 1898
the spire was removed, having shown
signs OF decay, and the edifice was
remodeied to its present condition.
A few years ago other modern inn
provements were made and It is up
