AMES D. M. FOSTER, of Pittsfield, Somerset County, a rising young farmer and stock-raiser, was born in this town, March 4, 1867, son of Charles H. and Olive (Dexter) Foster. The first of the family to settle in Pittsfield was Daniel Foster, grand- father of James. Charles H. Foster, the father, who was born in Pittsfield, was for many years a prominent farmer and lumber- man. He is still widely and favorably known as an able business man and a worthy citizen. Having the confidence of his fellow-townsmen, he served as a Selectman for ten years. He is still residing at the homestead in this town. His wife, Olive, who was a native of Palmyra, Me., died December 14, 1895. The only child of their union is the subject of this sketch.
James D. M. Foster attended the district schools in his boyhood, and acquired a knowl- edge of agriculture on the home farm. At the age of twenty-one he became manager of the town farm, which position he retained for four years. At the end of that time he came to his present farm, which was known as the Simons place. His property contains one hundred and twenty acres of well-cultivated land, capable of yielding excellent crops; and since taking possession of it he has erected a new residence. He carries on general farming and dairying, but gives his principal attention to the breeding of cattle.

DWIN S. IRELAND, a well-known and influential citizen of Piscataquis County, Maine, present chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, is a resident of Sebec, where he was born October 6, 1834. His parents were Abram and Esther (Cross) Ireland. His father, who was a son of Abra- ham Ireland, was a native of Bloomfield (now a part of Skowhegan).
Abram Ireland settled at Sebec in 1820 or thereabouts. A bachelor at that time, he took possession of a claim in the forest, cutting the first tree. He was a carpenter and cabinet- maker, and soon established a neat and com- fortable home. On his land he made many improvements, working early and late. Abram Ireland was a Republican from the time of the birth of the party. He was a member of the
Christian church, and lived up to his belief. He died in this town at the age of eighty- seven. His wife, who was born in Sebec, died at the age of sixty-eight.

Burgess, of this town; Sarah C., widow of Nathan Fogg, also of this town; Moses C., residing in Vancouver; and Edwin S., the special subject of this sketch.
Edwin S. Ireland was educated in the pub- lic schools of Sebec. In 1850, when he was sixteen years old, he went to California by way of the Isthmus of Panama; and he was there successfully engaged in mining four years. Returning to his native place, he was engaged in lumbering till the war broke out. Entering the Union army in 1861, he was em- ployed in the quartermaster's department as brigade wagon master until the close of the war. On his return he engaged in farming, and in 1867 he bought his present homestead property. He has a good farm of three hun- dred and fifty acres, and is engaged in general agriculture. He has made many improve- ments on the estate, and his buildings are neat and in good condition.

He was married in 1855 to Rachel Moulton. She died in 1864, leaving one child, Fred O., who resides in Sebec. In 1867 Mr. Ireland was married to Christina, daughter of John and Almira A. (Lowney) Glidden, of Sebec. The two children born of this union are : Allie May, wife of Charles Hassell, and Car- lotta, both residing in Sebec.
Mrs. Ireland's paternal grandfather, Jona- than Glidden, was one of the pioneers of this town. His first house was a log cabin in the wilderness; and he carried his grist to Atkin- son to mill, following a trail marked by blazed trees. Settling here in 1816, he lived to the age of eighty-four, seeing the little settlement grow to a flourishing town. He was a Whig and a Republican. In religious belief he was a Free Baptist. His wife, whose maiden name was Ruth Kent, died at the age of eighty-three. They reared a family of eight children, two of whom are living, namely : Deborah, wife of Thomas Rockwell, of Dover, Me. ; and Barker Glidden, of Aroostook County, Maine. John Glidden, Mrs. Ire- land's father, an industrious and well-to-do farmer, succeeded his father as owner of the farm. He spent his last years in Milo, dying there at the age of seventy-eight. He, too, was a Republican. On religious subjects he held liberal views. He was twice married. Mrs. Ireland's mother, who before marriage

OHN METCALF, of New Portland, a manufacturer of riveted boots and moc- casins, brogans, and plow shoes and a dealer in grain and kip and sole leather, was born in Lexington, Somerset County, Me., May 24, 1847. He is a son of Daniel G. and Cynthia (Churchill) Walker Metcalf. The father, born in ISII, in New Portland, a well- to-do farmer and prominent in the affairs of his native town, died in June, 1891.

Her grand- father, Captain Josiah Parker, was an officer in the Revolutionary army. Both he and his son, Benjamin, were farmers in New Portland. Benjamin Churchill died on May 15, 1815; and his wife subsequently married James Hutchins. Cynthia Churchill first married Cyrus Walker, of New Portland, by whom she had two children, who died young. By her second husband, Daniel G. Metcalf, she had

BIOGRAPHICAL REVIEW
eight children, namely: Cyrus W., who is engaged in surveying lumber for a railroad company in Michigan; Ellen, who is now the wife of Andrew Bates, a farmer of Midland, Mich. ; Caroline, the wife of Horatio Clark, a retired manufacturer of New Portland; Cyn- thia and Lucy, deceased; John, the subject of this sketch; Laura, deceased; and Millard, a shoe dealer in Guilford, Me. The mother died in March, 1891.
John Metcalf acquired a common-school ed- ucation. At the age of sixteen he left home and went to work for Horatio Clark, of New Portland, a tanner and shoemaker. He had been in Mr. Clark's employ about a year when, in August, 1864, he enlisted in Com- pany I, Sixteenth Regiment, Maine Volunteer Infantry. He was sent almost immediately into active service, and took part in some serious engagements. Taken ill with fever in front of Petersburg, he was sent home. When he regained his health he again entered Mr. Clark's employ. In 1870 he became Mr. Clark's partner, and until 1892 they transacted business under the firm name of + H. Clark & Co. In that year Mr. Clark re- tired, and Mr. Metcalf has since been the sole manager. The riveted boot, which they began manufacturing in 1879, is a prime favorite with farmers and lumbermen; and their other boots and shoes, being standard goods, have a large sale. The business has been very successful from the start. Mr. Metcalf also conducts business as an under- taker. He is a quiet, modest man, and has many friends.
In February, 1871, Mr. Metcalf was mar- ried to Flora, daughter of Elbridge True, a farmer of New Portland. She died in April, 1872, leaving one son, J. Clinton, a boot and shoe dealer residing in Farmington, Me., who married Miss Ethel Walker, of Bethel, this State. On May 11, 1873, Mr. John Met- calf was married to Miss M. Belle Hall, of New Vineyard, Me., daughter of Orrin and Elizabeth (Ricker) Hall. Mr. Hall died in 1890. His widow resides with her daughter, Mrs. Metcalf. Mr. Metcalf has no children by his second union. In politics he is a stanch Republican. He has been a Justice of the Peace since 1889. At the last county convention of his party, held in June, he was nominated by acclamation for the office of County Commissioner, to which he was elected in September for a term of six years from Jan- uary 1, 1899. The fact that on this occasion he was the first new candidate ever nominated by acclamation attests how well he is thought of in his county. He is a member of Lower Stream Lodge, No. 55, I. O. O. F., of New Portland; and of Isaac A. Pennell Post, No. 94, G. A. R., of the same place. In religious belief he is a Universalist.

sailed the seas, and as master of a vessel vis- ited many foreign ports, his commercial vent- ures taking him to all parts of the globe. While yet a young man he learned the mason's trade, which he followed after giving up seafaring in Lamoine, where he built the comfortable dwelling now occupied by Cap- tain A. C. Holt. He was a man of ability and stanch integrity, and for some time served as Town Treasurer. At Gouldsboro, Me., December 15, 1839, he married Eliza- beth D., daughter of John and Sarah Frisbee, of that town, born March 21, 1821.
John Frisbee was born in Kittery, Me., in 1793, a son of Deacon Darius Frisbee, who was born and reared in Londonderry, N. H. John Frisbee spent the larger part of his life in Kittery, York County, Me., but at differ- ent times was a resident of Winter Harbor, in the town of Gouldsboro, Hancock County, where he remained seventeen years, Portland, Lamoine, and of Charlestown, Mass., where his family resided at the time of his death, which took place in Brewer, Me., at the age of sixty years. The period of his residence in Winter Harbor was one of the busiest and most useful of his life. Engaging in trade, he fitted out many fishing and coasting vessels, of some of which he was the owner. The in- dustries he carried on gave employment to so many men, and his private benevolences were so numerous, that he was known as the "poor man's friend." Having skill as a physician, and there being no other doctor in the vicinity, he prescribed for the sick, and gave medicine freely to those unable to pay for it. As the
result of his studies and practice he subse- quently, in 1847, published a book entitled "The Family Physician," it being designed to enable persons not having a special medical training to correctly diagnose and successfully treat all ordinary diseases. As a Christian missionary, a member of the Free Baptist church at Kittery, of which his father was Deacon, he was influential in the organization of the first Sunday-school in Winter Harbor and the first Free Christian Baptist church in that place, his associates in this work being Jacob D. Coulard, Moses Franklin Davis (father of ex-Governor Davis), and Elders York and Gower. After its organization, the date of which was July 23, 1837, he was made clerk. The church at first consisted of nine- teen members, and in 1839 it joined the Christian Baptist Conference.
During the War of 1812 Captain Frisbee was on a fishing smack, and, being captured by the British, was pressed into the service as a prize master, but refused to serve the enemy. Although his life was threatened he stood by his country, and was protected by the British officers, and was later released. He married Sarah Ferguson, of Eliot, who bore him ten children ; namely, George W., Hiram F., Elizabeth D. (Mrs. Bragdon), Sarah A., John H., Marilla M., Washington J., Joseph F., Clara B., and Jesse F. George W. was a sea captain, and died at sea; and Hiram, also a sea captain, died at Turk's Island. Sarah A., who married Franklin Sproul, of China, Me., is now deceased. John H., a sea cap- tain, died in Charlestown, Mass. Marilla M.

Jesse H. Bragdon, for many years master of a vessel, was lost at sea, and left his widow with three children - Gertrude C., Harvey N., and Johnny D. Al- mena L., wife of Captain A. C. Holt, of Lamoine, has five children now living, namely : Lena; Hiram Allen, who is a physi- cian in Monroe, Me. ; Arthur B., commander of a vessel; Clarence, who is a dentist in Dover, Piscataquis County; and L. Jordan. Another son, Walter, died in Minneapolis, Minn., in 1896. The father, Captain Arthur C. Holt, was in Cuba at the beginning of the war with Spain. His vessel, the "Helen G. Mosley," was run into by a steamer while in harbor, sustaining injuries that cost one thou- sand dollars to repair, but returned home in good condition. Myra A. Bragdon married
George W. Young, a veteran of the late Civil War, who died at a comparatively early age, leaving one son, Jesse E. Young. Eben W. died in infancy, and Elizabeth F. died in Lowell, Mass., in 1896, unmarried. Eben H. Bragdon, a sea captain, resides in Seattle, Wash .; Joseph W. lives in Fargo, Dak. ; George W. is a dentist in Seattle, Wash .; Charles S., also a dentist, is a resident of Brockton, Mass. ; and Lelia M. is the wife of Hoyt L.

Her husband was for twenty- eight years a Deacon of the Lamoine First Baptist Church, and at his death was the Senior Deacon of the same.
Mrs. Bragdon after the death of her father was given power of attorney by the remaining heirs to settle his estate, a work requiring legal knowledge and ability, and one that she performed to the satisfaction of all concerned. A woman of strong personality and good men- tal attainments, she has become widely known throughout this section of the State through her contributions to the press; and her lively, breezy, and practical column in the Ellsworth American as long as J. C. Chillcott was edi- tor, under the signature of "D'nett," was eagerly read by the Lamoine subscribers, the same being true of her more recent contribu- tions to the Ellsworth Enterprise and Bangor Commercial. She is now, at the age of seventy-seven, still able to perform the duties of a good housekeeper, seeking help only in the spring and autumn to assist her in clean-

LBERT F. JONES, who carries on a flourishing dry and fancy goods store in Solon, was born in Lisbon, Me., February 19, 1829, son of Zadock and Esther (Weymouth) Jones. The father, who was a lifelong resident of Lisbon, carried on general farming and stock-raising, and prided himself upon the extent and fertility of his property.

berman; Albert F., the subject of this sketch ; George II., who married Sarah Golder, and is an extensive farmer and stockman in Web- ster, Me. ; and Alma, who is no longer living. Mr. and Mrs. Zadock Jones died in Lisbon (now called Webster).
Albert F. Jones acquired a common-school education. At the age of twenty-one he went to Boston, where for two years he was em- ployed as a conductor on the street railway. He later engaged in the sale of fancy goods upon the road, driving a team through the State of Maine for fourteen years. At the end of that time he bought the Chandler Baker hotel at Bingham, which he carried on for six years. Subsequently he traded the hotel for a farm in Madison, where he resided five years ; and then, trading the farm for a house and lot in Solon village, he established himself in business here in 1877. He deals in groceries, dry and fancy goods, notions, smallwares, and gentlemen's furnishings, and his store is the main source of supply for a wide territory.
Mr. Jones contracted the first of his two marriages with Sarah J. Jewell, of Wales, Me., daughter of James Jewell, a farmer and carpenter of that town. The only child of that union is Chester M.

He took up a tract of wild land, from which he redeemed a good homestead, and was there engaged in farming throughout his remaining days. His first wife, whose maiden name was Annie Stewart, was the mother of Levi Wyman.
Levi Wyman, born and brought up in Skow- hegan, learned the stone-cutter's trade, and thereafter followed it for the rest of his life. He purchased a quarry on Dodlin Hill, and with his brothers, who were also men of enter- prise and ability, he took contracts for erect - ing public buildings.

He was then employed by the York & Cumberland Railroad Company for a time, first on the road and then in their office at Portland. In locating a piece of road be- tween Gorham and the Saco River he took a severe cold, and for some time was quite out of health. Being advised by his physician to take a voyage, he bought an interest in a schooner at Mount Desert, and made one trip to Labrador.
