THE SETTLERS' LOTS,

in tolerable number, had to be reserved in the grant to the Waldo heirs. Already a goodly number of hardy pioneers were upon the soil of the Newburg to-be. Be- tween 1794 and 1798, or not long after, had come Cap- tain and Rev. Edward Snow, a retired sea-captain, and, what is more remarkable, a Methodist minister as well, who is accredited with being the first settler; Cullum Muffit, said to have been the second on the ground; and then Messrs. George and Ichabod Bickford, Thomas Mor- rill, Spooner Alden, Freeman Luce, Levi Mudgett, James Morrison, Abel Hardy, Ezekiel Smith, Daniel Piper, and others. Settlement was measurably kept back for a time by the exorbitant prices asked for the land by Mr. Bus- sey; but after his death the heirs and their agents were more reasonable in their demands, and the Plantation (or township) filled up more rapidly.

MUNICIPAL ORGANIZATION.

The inchoate state of Newburg town, as before noted, was as "Plantation No. 3." March 13, 1819, it emerged from the transition period, and became a full-fledged town. It was the two hundred and thirty-second created by the General Court of Massachusetts in the District of Maine; one of the five (and the only one in Penobscot county) incorporated in 1819, and the fifth erected before the separation of the States.

Nine days thereafter, upon the call of Rufus Gilmore, under the act or resolve of incorporation, and upon a warrant issued by Thomas A. Hill, a Justice of the Peace in Bangor, the first town meeting was held at the school- house, near John Whitney's residence. There were at this time forty voters in the town, of whom about seven- eighths (thirty-four) were present, betokening the intelli- gent and eager interest taken in laying the foundation of permanent municipal government here. Mr. Spooner Alden was Moderator of the meeting, and Mr. Gilmore, Clerk. Both of these, with Mr. Benjamin Folsom, were elected Selectmen, Assessors, and Overseers of the new town.

A long list of honorable gentlemen, during the sixty- three years, nearly, since their election, have succeeded in the town offices the citizens chosen at this meeting for public service. Their last successors (in 1881) were : J. P. Rigby, Joseph M. Davis, Franklin Prescott, Select- men; Chandler H. Whitcomb, Town Clerk; Jabez Knowlton, Treasurer; S. E. Mudgett, Constable and Collector; C. A. Arnold, J. W. Chapman, William Jackson, School Committee; Jabez Knowlton, C. H. Whitcomb, S. C. Emerson, J. F. Hussey, George R. Thurlough, John M. Bickford (Quorum), Charles A. Arnold (Trial), George R. Thurlough (Dedimus), Justices.

NOTES OF PROGRESS.

Plantation No. 3 had 62 inhabitants at the beginning of this century. In 1810 it had 216, a truly remarkable increase (350 per cent.) for that period of Penobscot history and for a single decade. In 1820 Newburg town had 328 people, 63 voters, and estates valued at $24,718. Its population in 1830 was 626, 963 in 1840, 1,399 in 1850, 1,365 in 1860, 1, 115 in 1870, and 1,057 in 1880.

The number of polls in Newburg in 1860 was 294; in 1870, 286; and in 1880, 304.

The Newburg estates were officially rated in 1860 at $170,483; in 1870, at $237,964; and in 1880, at $275,- 102. The property valuation of the town has kept in- creasing, notwithstanding some lessening of population.
