he sighted the palm fringed shores of
the West Indies.
He called his discovery Australia

the assistance Of neighbors removed

endeavor. Waterville has thus gain
cd a standing in New England, which
will be exceeded by none for when
the hospital is finished, it will have
100 beds at the disposal of the city
