| tenant, and then to captain of the
company. He went South with the
First Maine Infantry in the Spanish
American war.
| In 1906. he resigned his commission
and was placed on the retired list
with the rank Of major. In spite of
| the fact that he was on the retired
list he was in active duty every year.
A few years later. he again went on
to the active list as captain of the
State Quartermaster Corps and in
|
AS might be safely assumed. Major
Goodwin is greatly interested in the
National Guard and all that pertains
to it, particularly the State shoot
competitions. and he is looking for
ward to the coming contest which
will be held on the rifle range in Au-
burn for six days commencing Sept.
