The cascade at Skowhegan was not
ed in the days when the Indians were
the sole inhabitants. Here was the
first great break in the flow of the
river, and consequently the salmon
in their fresh water migrations from
the sea here met the first obstacle.
The great basins at the foot of the
% foot cascade became alive with the
fish as they fought to jump thru the
rushing torrents into the still waters
above The very word Skowhegan,
signifies in the language of the Red
man a place to watch for salmon"
Just how early in the 18th century the
settlers harnessed the flow to grind
their corn and grain is not definitely

Sale OF True Farm in New Portland

In the selling of the True Farm by
John G. True, in New Portland to Viii
liam Weimer of Monterey, Virginia, the
history of said farm is wildly called
to mind by those of the towns eiti-
zens who are familiar with it,
Away back in 1914, when New Port
land was yet in it's youth, there came
from the town of Temple, Me, a young
man, Zebulon True, who, after looking
the situation over, decided to build for
himself and family a home only a
short distance from what is now New
Portland Village and near to the beau
tiful Carrabassett River.
Mr. True had taken as his wife and
companion of those early days, Miss
Sophronia Haskell. Six years after
the arrival of Mr.. True to this town
there arrived a son in the log cabin
home of this pioneer family. This boy,
named Elbridge, grew to manhood and
became united in bonds OF matrimony
to Miss May c. Pencil of New Port
land The couple remained on the
farm which had been cleared and brot
to a state of cultivation by his father
Instead of living in the log cabin
however, which was situated back
from the road in what is now the True
Orchard, they built them house near
err the road and tearing down the old
barn built another.
Later after Mary True's death, Ell
bridge True married Miss Joan Gill
key of Strong Mr.. True was a MEM

s0;- IL, Nd IN, 1878 VI q
Noble Grand of the order, holding that
office at the time their hall was con-
sumed by fire when nearly the whole
business section of the little village
was destroyed. His death occurred on
February 8. 1889.
John G. True is the son of Elbridge
and Joan (Gilkey) True, also born on
the old homestead and received his ed
ucation in the public schools of this
town.
He married Miss Villa Walker, the
daughter of Eben and Frances Walker
of New Portland. To this union was
given one child, Hazel, who has made
a wonderful mark in the educational
world and who is still pressing for
ward and upward in her chosen voca-
ton.
Mr.. True has been an active men,
Der of Lemon Stream Lodge since 1882
and was Noble Grand Of same in 1884
Since that time he has held the posi-
ton of Financial Secretary for many
years.
few pears ago, the True barn was
struck by lightning and entirely con
sumed. Mr.. True then built barn
modern and handy in every detail
Thus. in the number Of years this
farm has been in the True family each
generation has built new barn ant
improved their home. according to the
times, so that now the buildings art
some OF the finest I'm this section. be
ing of most modern type and in {
well preserved state.
The new owners plan to take posses
sion very soon and Mr.. and Mrs. True
will move to Pennington for the win
ter months.
