In 1881 the church was remodeled and a chapel built adjoin- ing. A memorial window was installed bearing the names of four prominent members. General and extensive improvements were made throughout. The pews were sold at this time, bring- ing about six hundred dollars into the church treasury.
Later, a steel ceiling and carpets were provided, a pipe organ was installed and acetylene gas lights introduced, which in the subsequent years have been succeeded by a modern electric pipe organ and electric lights. A public water supply is also an added improvement of the church.
Highly honored and unusually favored has the Second Con- gregational Church been, not only in its regularly installed min- isters but also by other eminent clergymen nationally or inter- nationally known, who have delivered as powerful sermons in this plain New England village church, as are heard in the greatest churches of the largest cities. It is but necessary to quote the names of Doctors Harry Emerson Fosdick, Peter Mac- Queen and C. H. Beale among others of distinction who have favored appreciative audiences here, to indicate what honor has been bestowed upon this church.
Since 1902 three pastors have been removed by the hand of death, Rev. Donald McCormick, Dr. Peter MacQueen and Rev. G. H. Woodward, the two last having been taken within one year.

Bremen postoffice discontinued and supplied from Me- domak.
A SMALL town beautifully situated on the Medomak River, adjoining Waldoboro on the north and Damaris- cotta on the west. The town of Bristol is on the south. Two beautiful lakes, Pemaquid and Biscay, form a part of its western boundary, while within its borders are two more beau- tiful sheets of water, Lakes Hilton and Webber.
Bremen formed a part of the town of Bristol until 1828, when it was incorporated as a separate town. The census of 1920 gave 423 inhabitants.
The first church in town was located at Greenland Cove. In 1824 it was torn down and the Union Church was built from the materials of the old. The Methodists organized about 1820 and were connected with Round Pond for many years. In 1875 a Methodist parsonage was built and Rev. David Smith came to occupy it. The present pastor is Rev. Herbert L. Price.
The Congregationalists organized March (39?), 1829, with Rev. John Starrman of Waldoboro as pastor. Rev. John J. Bullfinch served as pastor for more than thirty years.
In the church yard stands a monument presented to the town by the ladies of the Patriotic Club in memory of Bremen's sol- diers of the Civil War. Five brothers, Rhoades, are among the number.
A lot shaded by pine and oak trees, enclosed by a stone wall- here is the Quaker or Friends' cemetery. Every few years the lot is cleared that it may be kept intact. Adjoining is a field where can be seen the corner stone of the old Quaker church, which was built in 1798. About 1845 it was sold to John Osier, who took it down and built from its stout hand-hewn timbers a house at Osier Neck, now Medomak, where it still stands.

Fifteen miles S. E. of Wiscasset. Belonged to Pemaquid Patent, granted to Elbridge and Aldsworth, of Bristol, England, 1629. Settled as early as 1625, under an Indian title from the Indian chief Samoset to John Brown. Was vis- ited by ancient voyagers: Gosnold in 1602, and DeMonts in 1605, and settle- ments are spoken of as existing at that time in this vicinity. In 1664, Charles II granted this whole territory to his brother, Duke of York, afterward James II; a government was established, and a city and fort built. The jurisdiction was ceded to Massachusetts in 1686. Incorporated June 18, 1765. Bremen set off Feb. 19, 1828. Population-1790, 896; 1800, 996; 1820, 1240; 1850, 2913; 1860, 3035; 1870, 2916; 1880, 3196; 1890, 2821; 1900, 2572; 1910, 2415.

T HE town of Bristol, situated in the southern part of Lincoln County, is about thirteen miles long and five miles wide, measuring as the bird flies between the ex- treme northern and southern points and the extreme western and eastern points, respectively. It forms a peninsula which juts out several miles into the Atlantic Ocean. According to the United States Coast Survey, the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, at the south- ern extremity of the town, is located in 43º 51' North Latitude and 69° 29' West Longitude. Bristol is bounded on the north by the towns of Damariscotta and Bremen, on the east by the ocean, on the south by the ocean and on the west by the town of South Bristol, John's Bay and the ocean.
The town includes eight villages and post-offices-Bristol (Mills), Chamberlain (more commonly known as Long Cove), New Harbor, Pemaquid (Falls), Pemaquid Beach, Pemaquid Harbor and Pemaquid Point. The population is about 1425. The nearest railroad depot is at Newcastle-Damariscotta, about eight miles distant from the center of the town. At this station, connections can be made with the Bar Harbor Express and other convenient trains for Portland, Boston, New York and other points. During the greater part of the year, when the roads are in favorable condition, public automobiles are operated between the different parts of the town and the railroad station, meeting important trains regularly.

CHRONICLES OF LINCOLN COUNTY
While the chief industry of the town is fishing, the summer business constitutes a close second. The scenic beauty and his- toric atmosphere combine with the quietude of the place to lure increasing numbers of tourists to Bristol every summer, and the town is rapidly developing into one of the most prominent resorts on the Maine coast. Farming and lumbering are carried on to some extent in the interior section of the town. Burnham & Morrill Company of Portland erected at Pemaquid Beach, in 1923, a modernly equipped factory for the canning of clams and fish and thus has been revived an industry which for many years up to about a quarter of a century ago held an important place in the business of Bristol.
Bristol is by no means neglecting its educational facilities, expending for schools every year about one-third of the amount received in taxes. There are graded common schools in every village, except Pemaquid Point, which is principally a summer colony. Bristol High School, located at Pemaquid (Falls) is a Grade A Standard school. The school has a teaching staff consisting of a principal and two assistants and offers three courses-Latin Scientific, English Science and Commercial.
The history of Bristol centers largely around Pemaquid, in the lower part of the town, where there is said to be more remains of former civilization than at Plymouth, Mass., and Jamestown, Va., combined. In 1607, the same year that James- town, Va., was settled by the London Company, Captain Pop- ham, under the auspices of the Plymouth Company, landed at Pemaquid. The first permanent settlement was established here in 1625, when John Brown and his son-in-law, Richard Pearce, purchased land of the Indians and made a clearing in which they put up their humble cabins. The conveyance was made in consideration of "50 skins." The deed, which was signed by the famous Samoset and another Indian sagamore named Unnongoit, was the first quit-claim deed properly executed in New England. A monument stands at New Harbor in com- memoration of the event.
History tells us that, about the middle of the seventeenth century, Pemaquid had acquired considerable importance as a center of business, there being more activity manifested here than at any other point along the whole Atlantic coast. Fishing

CHRONICLES OF LINCOLN COUNTY
vessels were continually coming and going; Indians brought their furs and other goods here to trade with the settlers, and everything was booming. Under the provisions of the Pema- quid Patent, a grant made by the Council of Plymouth, Eng- land, a corporation organized as the success of the Plymouth Company, "for the planting, ruling, ordering and governing of New England in America," this section was allotted to different men from time to time for a number of years immediately fol- lowing the establishment of the first settlement. Although the grantees under the patent performed certain magisterial func- tions, the place was, during that period, practically without civil government.
There have been four forts built and torn down at Pemaquid, excepting the foundations of Forts William Henry and Fred- erick, which, having been constructed of solid masonry, are still well preserved. At the west angle of these remains the State of Maine restored a few years ago the castle or round tower, surrounding the huge granite boulder which bears the date 1607 to commemorate the landing of the Popham colony. The first fort, which was merely a stockade, was erected in 1630 or 1631; captured and rifled by Dixy Bull, a notorious pirate, in 1632; and finally taken and burned by the Indians, in 1676. The second fort, which was also of wooden construction, was built, in 1677, in accordance with the orders of the Duke of York. At this time the settlement here was named Jamestown in honor of King James II, and the fort called Fort Charles. This fort was captured and burned in 1689 by a company of Indians, incited by the French at Castine.
The third Pemaquid fort, which was the first stone forti- fications to be built here, was erected in 1692 by Governor Phips and named Fort William Henry. This fort, which was at that time the strongest British fort in North America, was taken and destroyed, in 1696, after a long siege by the French and Indians, Sieur D'Iberville commanding the expedition. The fort was rebuilt, in 1729, by Colonel David Dunbar, acting under orders from the British government. This stronghold, which was named Fort Frederick, in honor of the young Prince of Wales, served for a century and a half to hold New England against further invasions by the French and other nations then
32
CHRONICLES OF LINCOLN COUNTY
struggling for this part of the earth. In accordance with a vote of the town, Fort Frederick was pulled down, in the spring of 1775, to prevent the British from taking possession of it and using it in their warfare against the colonists. This was the last fort built at Pemaquid, the tide of immigration turning farther south from this time on, leaving the ancient settlement neglected. These forts were situated in that section of the town now known as Pemaquid Beach. Thousands of people every summer visit the historic remains and the castle, in which can be seen numerous relics depicting the romance of Pemaquid of ye olden times. The present curator at the castle is James E. Partridge, a descendant of one of the pioneer inhabitants of the place.
Bristol was incorporated as a town in 1765. At the first town meeting, which was held at the house of William Sproul, Thomas Fletcher was chosen Moderator; Robert Given, Town Clerk; and William Jones, Jr., Patrick Rogers, Robert Sproul, Henry Hunter and James Young, Jr., Selectmen and Assessors. As originally laid out, Bristol comprised practically all the ter- ritory lying between the Damariscotta River and the Muscongus Sound and Bay. In 1828, the northeast part of Bristol was set off from the rest of the town and incorporated as the town of Bremen. Later, in 1847, the northern portion of the town became separated and, with a tract from the southern part of Nobleboro, formed the town of Damariscotta. Thus Bristol remained until 1915, when, by an act of the Legislature, the western section was divided from the mother town and incor- porated as the town of South Bristol.
The first post-office in Bristol was established in the Walpole part of the town in 1800, with Thomas McClure as postmaster. A lighthouse station was established at Pemaquid Point in 1824 and has since been maintained as a guide to mariners in passing one of the most rugged headlands on the Maine coast. Many wrecks have occurred at Pemaquid Point, one of the most tragic being that of 1903, when, in a dark, foggy night in September, with a heavy sea running, the Gloucester fishing schooner George F. Edmunds, westbound, and the coasting schooner Sadie & Lillie, bound east for Bangor, both went ashore on the rocky
