In q few days, August -, to be ex-
act, Winthrop has an anniversary of
which she should be proud. Ono hum
dred and sixty years ago, August, II,
1865, Timothy Foster and wife and 10
children, having travelled the weary
miles from Attleboro, Massachusetts,
presumably in an OK cart, arrived on
the west shore Of Lake Cobbosseecon-
tee and spent the night in the rude
cabin which Mr.. Foster had bought of
one Mr.. Samuel Scott, hunter, for
$50. The memorable spot where stood
the permanent home which Mr.. Foster
built is designated by a marker near
the home of Walter Titus on the road
between Winthrop Center and East
Winthrop.
The dramatization Of Mr.. Fosters
arrival in Winthrop will form part of
the second episode Of an historical
pageant in preparation by Dorothy
Newman Webb. The first episode will
be devoted to . portrayal Of the Indian
life which once hourished on the
shores Of Maranacook, Annabescook,
Cobbossee. Cochnewagan and andre
scoggin lakes.
