New English Canaan, Thomas Morton

Maine History Documents

In 1883 the Prince Society published in very limited quantity The New English Canaan edited by Charles Francis Adams. Since then there has been no new edition of this informative and entertaining work. Adams held faithfully to the original in spelling, punctuation, and even in the use of the early in the text. His footnotes are learned, copious, and occasionally a bit irrelevant, but a number of mystifying expressions are not explained. It may simply be the short supply and relatively poor readability that have caused modern scholars to deny Morton’s work the attention that it deserves. In this edition …

History Of Aroostook, Edward Wiggin

Maine History Documents

So far as the writer knows the only complete compilation of facts covering the early settlement of Aroostook was one made by the late Hon. Edward Wiggin, about thirty years ago. In preparation for this record Mr. Wiggin visited every town in the County, and secured the facts comprised in his narrative largely from the pioneer settlers of each town, whose recollections were then fresh regarding their experience and the facts concerning the early settlement of their town.

This record of Mr. Wiggin, now in the custody of the Presque Isle Public Library, is in part in manuscript written in …

Tragédie D'Un Peuple; Histoire Du Peuple Acadien De Ses Origines À Nos Jours, Emile Lauvriére

Maine History Documents

En cette nouvelle édition revue et complétée, nous avons remanié, grâce à de nouveaux documents et renseignements, la première partie du tome I et la dernière du tome II, tout en faisant dans le reste de l'ouvrage de nombreuses rectifications. Bien précieuse pour cette révision nous a été une excellente thèse d'histoire sur < la Gaspésie, foyer de vie française et catholique », que l'auteur, Fr. Antoine Bernard, originaire de ce pays, a bien voulu nous communiquer en manuscrit, avant qu'elle ne paraisse sous la forme définitive qu'elle mérite. Avec un rare désintéressement M. Pierre de Vaissière, conservateur aux Archives Nationales, nous a donné la primeur de sa belle découverte du testament d'Aulnay, que nous publions et commentons en appendice. Le Père Candide, de Périgueux, et le Père A, David, de la Congrégation du Saint-Esprit, ont eu la bonté de nous faire bénéficier de leurs recherches sur les Capucins et sur l'abbé Le Loutre, lesquelles paraîtront bientôt en volumes. Nous nous réjouissons de voir le passionnant sujet de l'Acadie éveiller ainsi tant de curiosités sympathiques et susciter tant de travaux. Quant aux cartes et gravures de cette seconde édition, nous les reproduisons grâce à la complaisance des Editions Bossard qui ont si généreusement entrepris en 1923 la première édition dès maintenant épuisée.

Pioneers Of France In The New World, Francis Parkman

Maine History Documents

The subject to which the proposed series will be devoted is that of " France in the New World," — the attempt of Feudalism, Monarchy, and Rome to master a continent where, at this hour, half a million of bayonets are vindicating the ascendency of a regulated freedom; — Feudalism still strong in life, though enveloped and overborne by new-born Centralization; Monarchy in the flush of triumphant power; Rome, nerved by disaster, springing with renewed vitality from ashes and corruption, and ranging the earth to reconquer abroad what she had lost at home. These banded powers, pushing into the wilderness …

History Of Amity Lodge, No. 6: Free And Accepted Masons, Camden, Maine, Reuel Robinson

Maine History Documents

Believing that the interesting history of Old Amity Lodge ought, in some, way to be preserved in print, lest sometime it be lost altogether, I have ventured upon the undertaking of compiling from the Lodge records and other sources, the following history of the Lodge from the first meeting of the founders in 1799, down to the present time.

Already the records of the Lodge have passed through two terrible fires, that each time destroyed almost everything else that the Lodge possessed. They were in both instances almost miraculously saved from destruction and the Lodge still has them all intact. …
