The LEGISLATURE was petitioned in
1878 to incorporate the plantation OF
GardinerstoWn, and in 1873 an act
was passed incorporating 1t into the
town of Pittston. In the year 1913
all the territory of the old town oil
Pittston lying on the west side OF the
kennebec with the inhabitants there
in was by act Of the Legislature in
corporated into a distinct town by
the name of Gardiner" BY the pro-
visions of the act Jedediah Jewett
was directed to issue his warrant t3
some principal inhabitant of said
town to notify the people to assemble
for the purpose of choosing town
officers, land to transact such mat
ters and things as may be necessary
and lawful at such meeting. The
warrant was issued to Dudly Il. Iio-
bart, who called the first town meet
ing in the old Episcopal meeting
house, March II, 1903. They elected
tythingmen, hog reeves, and fish
committee. April 1st the town voted
to raise $500 for highways, $500 for
preaching, $500 for schooling, and
expenses of the town. April 4, 1914
it was voted not to raise any more
money for preaching" and after the
next year "tythingmen" We're not in
cluded in the list of town officers.
At the time Gardiner was incor-
porated there was but one or two
houses on Church Hill which was
covered with q dense growth of pines.
Water Street had but one or two
stores. and the Cobbosseecontee ran
most of the way from it's sources TO
the kennebec through unbroken for
ests. The population of Gardiner in
1850, before West Gardiner was set
off was 6,4S6. 1t contained 1875 farms.
that produced 124 bushels of wheat.
1862 bushels of corn, 5.542 bushels
of oats, 700 bushels of barley, $500
tons of hay, 2.7S0 pounds of beeswaX
and honey, 8,340 pounds of cheese.
and $4,000 pounds of butter. There
were 9SS houses, 300 horses, 1926 OK
en-. $40 sheep, 600 cows. and 1S9
swine. There were sawed 15,000.000
feet of lumber, 100000 of clap
boards and 100000 shingles. The
manufacture of cloth was 5000 yards
of flannel, 5000 yards of satinette.
and 10000 yards of cashmere. and
$4,000 sheep skins and 45,600 sides OF
leather were handled. Some of the
other production were 10000 pairs of
boots and shoes, 1900 barrels of
flour, and 100000 brick. There We're

BAILEY'S AUTO ELECTRIC
SERVICE,
Formerly Mechanic Street Garage
Gardiner

Although having been IN business
for a period of less than three years,
Mr.. p. T.. Bailey, the, proprietor of
the Mechanic St. Garage, Gardiner,
has built up a fine business. His
garage is finely equipped where auto
mobile repairing of all kinds is done
in an expert manner by the trained
men who are employed here at all
times
Especially do they cater to those
owning Hudson, Nash, Essex and
Chevrolet cars, who can testify to
the high-grade work done at this
garage.
There Is ample storage capacity
for a goGdly number of cars for
those who want them kept in prime
condition during the winter months.
Mr. Bailey is agent for the United
States tires and tubes. the superior
ity of which is unquestionable. They
have here q large, gasoline tank
which holds many hundreds of gal
Ions.
BY telephoning this garage, your
emergency calls will be promptly at
tended to, service much appreci-
ated by motorists.

shoe stores, six millinery stores, TWO
carriage factories. twenty-siX, gro
ceries. and five dry goods stores.
There were fifteen up and down saws
three sash. door, and blind makers,
thirteen single machines. one aSt
maker, three cabinet makers, nlne
blacItsmiths, and two commission
merchants.
When the idle flow of the CobboS-
seecontee was arrested by the hand
Of industry and the stout form OIL
wooden dam No. | stretched across its
path the first task assigned to it was
to turn the crank of an old fashioned
saw mill. The pioneer mill had SO
much work to do that second one
was added, and the two sawed the
beams and boards for the Cobbossee
grist mill which was built on the
east end of the dam in 116l. For the
next fifty years it can easily he sald
with truth that of saw mills there
was no end. Dam No. l had thir-
teen running at one time. Two or
three generations of saw mills We're
built, worn out and replaced with
new ones. The first paper mill on
the Cobbosseecontee was built about
1906 by r. II. Gardiner, John Savels,
F,ben Moore and John Stone under
the firm name of John Savels d Co.
1t was burned in 1913 and was rebuilt
by the same parties with the eXcep-
ton of Mr.. Stone who retired from
the firm.
In 1S49 the legislature of Maine
passed an act of incorporation by
which the town of Gardiner as body
polite might become the city OF
Gardiner. The acceptance of the
charter by vote of the people was
condition precedent. The town
voted on the Goth of November to
accept the charter, and the first City
election was held in March 1850. AS
divided by the act the city consisted
of seven wards. Ward Three being
then the present town of West Gardi-
ner. In the year 1892 there We're 439
warrants issued from the municipal
court $50 of which We're for drunk
eness, as compared with the year
1928 when 141 warrants were issued
of which but % were for this offense.
Although the upper kennebec is
navigable to smaller craft Gardiner
must be regarded as head of naviga :
ton, and thus enjoyed distinctive
advantage. This privilege was more
enjoyed in the 18th century, when
SHlpSi udISeS. anu SCiOtIeIS Cal
ing a great variety of goods came up
the Kennebec. OF late years the
shipping has greatly decreased.
Very little is known of the intro
I duction of any system of public edu-
cation in Gardiner, the records fur
nishing but slight information upon
the subject. Private schools We're
established early in the history of
Gardiner. 1iansons history says
The first teacher was Master Ever
son. one of the early settlers who
had taught school in Boston, but his
methods not being quite up TO the
