The town of Cambridge was first
settled In about 1904 by Joseph Ty-
Ter, Noah Littlefeld, Jacob Hatch. Mr..
Kimball and soon afterward by others.
During the early days Of the settle
ment the inhabitants on its few scat
tered farms came and went by means
of spotted trails thru the forests and
endured many hardships in winning
from the stubborn wilderness the fer
tile fields which are the pride of the
town today. The first child born in
town Ia said to have been David Little
field, who was born in 1915. The
first school was kept in a log house
in 1918 by Miss Salley Hamilton and
the next in the next year by Miss
Sturgiss. The early meetings were
held in the log houses Of the settlers,
and glance at the audience would
show better than anything else per-
haps the change which has taken
place in the manner of living in one
hundred years. Women and men
alike were dressed In homespun and
many of the women wore handker-
chiefs on their heads. Most of the
congregation came on foot or on
horseback along the forest paths, al
tho occasionally family would come
to church with clumsy oxen. Many
were barefoot and it is even related
that on one occasion a minister
preached barefoot, to a congregation
seated on boards, laid across rude sup
ports to form the pews In the spring
of 1S43 a great religious revival
swept over the town, an opinion being
prevalent that the world was soon
coming to an end. Meetings were
held in the different houses and many
were baptized, Two, it is said, by can
delight in the main stream.
