Mr. THOMBS of Penobscot: Mr.. Sec

falls to me that at any other time
would be exceedingly pleasant At this
particular time, when our hearts are
full of sorrow, and we feel to do only
those things that are necessary. the
most pleasant duty is a bit onerous.
At this time it is not my purpose,
neither is it the time nor the place to
offer any eulogy for that untimely
death that has caused the people OF
Maine to sorrow without parallel. In
what | may have to say to you this
afternoon, and / believe that through
out the remainder of the session, in this
end of the capitol and in the other.
bTevity of speech and singleness to the
business in hand will mark the record
Of this Legislature.

esteemed and lamented Governor we'll
enough to say to you that if he could
speak to us at this time he would, in
that kindly way of his, ask us to take
up the burden that falls upon us and
carry it forward like men, serving the
State of Maine to the best of our abil-
ity.
And 1t is in that spirit and with that
feeling in my heart that l rise to ad-
dress you briefly. At this time it be-
comes necessary for us to fill the vacan-
cy caused by the death of our lamented
Governor. Many of us. in fact. we all,
are sorry indeed that such untimely
events should have marred the even
course of things in this Senate And
yet, l feel / voice the sentiments of
the departed Governor, I feel that per-
haps am speaking for you, too, when
say that we must now take up the
burden as we find it and carry it for

basin, has not yet been announced
but will likely be within the next
few days.
A soft sand foundation across the
lower end of the pool which gave

gallons of water, allowing the one
inch concrete floor to crumble at
that point, was responsible Tor the
postponement of the opening as an

one encountered in the building of
the pool lay under a deep bed of
clay almost directly under the u.
inch wall at the lower end of the
pool and where a seep hole had
been arranged for drainage for the
accumulated sediment, this tending
TO weaken the floor at the weakest
point of the Foundation strata.
Mr.. Jackson states that the dam

by digging deep into the ground at
this point and filling in with hard
clay, this being tamped to secure
its solidity; also the entire lower
