posits of the Ticonic Bank July 12, 1892, were $92,838; surplus, $20,000, with $1,005 undivided profits.

The second Waterville Bank was chartered about 1851 and went into operation with a capital of $100,000, managed by Increase S. Johnson, James Stackpole, T. G. Kimball, C. J. Wingate, Charles Thayer and Samuel P. Shaw, who was its first president. Augustine Perkins was the first cashier, Isaac S. Bangs was the second and Eldridge L. Getchell was the third and last. In 1865 this bank closed its business, and the Waterville National Bank was organized, with Dennis L. Milliken, who had been the second and last president of the first bank, as president of the new one, and Eldridge L. Getchell, cashier, and a capital of $125,000. Both banks were organized and did business in the Ticonic Block till 1877, when the national bank moved into the Milliken Block, which it had built and owned. The business of this bank was closed up in 1879 with the same officers first elected.

The People's Bank of Waterville was organized in 1855 as a state bank. Paul L. Stevens was the first president, John R. Philbrick was the next and John Ware was the last. Sumner Percival was the first cashier, followed by Homer Percival in 1859. In 1865 the People's National Bank was incorporated, with John Webber, president, and Homer Percival cashier, who still holds that position. Dr. Nathan G. H. Pulsifer, who had been a member of the board since 1870, suc- ceeded Mr. Webber as president. The capital stock is $200,000 and the deposits are $108,125, with $47,000 surplus fund and undivided profits.

Waterville Savings Bank was organized May 4, 1869. William Dyer, the first president, with Moses Lyford, N. G. H. Pulsifer, Ira H. Low and C. F. Hathaway constituted the board of trustees. Homer Percival was the first treasurer, M. C. Percival was the second, suc- ceeded in 1874 by E. R. Drummond, who still fills that office. In 1876 the bank examiner reported the deposits of this bank as amounting to $427,232.45 and that its assets were only $396,630.50. This was owing to the general decline in the market value of securities, as the bank had sustained no other losses. The depositors took a sensible view of the situation and agreed to a reduction of their credits to 873 cents on the dollar. With only one day's suspension the bank re- sumed and has since continued business. In 1877 the bank examiner reported a surplus of $10,549.48 above liabilities to depositors. Its deposits in July, 1892, were: $690,302.87, with a reserve fund of $33,- 800 and $14,609.85 undivided profits. Reuben Foster has been presi- dent since 1871, when he succeeded William Dyer.

The Merchants' National Bank of Waterville was organized August 4, 1875, with $100,000 capital, and began doing business January 1, 1876, with the following board of directors: John Ware, George C.

Getchell, Charles M. Barrell, Colby C. Cornish, Gideon Wells, John C. Manson and John Ware, jun. John Ware, the first president, was succeeded at his death in 1877 by his son, John, who still holds that office. The bank has had two cashiers: George H. Ware, till June, 1879, and Horatio D. Bates. The condition of this bank, published July 12, 1892, showed deposits amounting to $119,259, a surplus fund of $30,000 and $12,983 undivided profits.

Waterville Loan, Trust & Safe Deposit Company was organized in 1892 under a special charter, with a capital stock of $100,000. The ob- jects of this institution are to do a general banking business, and to furnish safe deposit vaults. Two stores in the Masonic Block have been rented, and 500 boxes are ready for private use. S. C. Libby is presi- dent: Dr. F. C. Thayer, vice-president; C. G. Carleton, treasurer, and W. T. Haines is the clerk of this corporation.

The Kennebec Mutual Life Insurance Company was organized in Waterville in accordance with the terms of a charter granted Febru- ary 19, 1889. Its existence and many of its characteristic features are the work of William T. Haines, its projector.

CEMETERY .- The oldest burying ground in Waterville occupied the ground that is now Monument Park. The bodies were removed to Pine Grove Cemetery, which was dedicated in May, 1850. The orig- inal plot of ten acres was given by Samuel Appleton; to this the town and city have added as much more. The lots, which at first sold from five to ten dollars, now bring from fifteen to one hundred dol- lars. By judicious care and a few gifts, a fund of $12,000 has accumu- lated, the income of which, added to current receipts, renders the association self-sustaining. To the natural attractions of this beautiful spot, the committee and the community have added many enduring proofs of tender regard for its silent inhabitants.

POST OFFICE .- The post office at Waterville was established Octo- ber 3, 1796, with Asa Redington as postmaster. His successors, with the years of their appointments, have been: Asa Dalton, 1816; Hall Chase, 1824; Abijah Smith, 1833; Samuel Appleton, 1841; Eldridge L.

SCHOOLS .- The earliest record we have of schools is the action of the town meeting in 1803: " Voted to divide the town into school dis- tricts, to be called by the following names: No. 1, Ticonic District; No. 2, Rose's District; No. 3, Ten Lot District; No. 4, Almond Soule's District; No. 5, Osbourn's District; No. 6, Crowell's District; No. 7, Tozer's District; No. 8, Low's District; No. 9, Moor's District, and No. 10, Asa Soule's District." Voted -- That one person be chosen in each district as a school agent, to assemble the district, to collect the num- ber of children between the ages of five and twenty-one, and make full returns to the selectmen. In 1805 the school agents were: Nehe- miah A. Parker, Bryant Williams, Isaiah Masten, Samuel Downing, Samuel Wade, Baxter Crowell, Alexander McKechnie, Thomas Par- ker, Samuel Moor, David Wheeler and William Colcord.

George C. Clark, in the Waterville Mail, April 21, 1882, says: "The first school I ever attended was in that old brown school house on the common near old Esquire Smith's and was taught by an old bachelor -Deacon Damon. The district had been divided and George Dana Boardman, then in college, taught in the new district, and there being no school house in the new part his school was held in Lemuel Dun- bar's carpenter shop. I remember I had the honor of beating the bass drum on that great day-the first commencement of Waterville Col- lege. I can remember when Waterville was set off from Winslow, and when Parson Cushman preached in the three old meeting houses -the one in West Waterville sometimes called 'God's Barn.''

HISTORY OF KENNEBEC COUNTY.

The schools of the city are managed by a board of education con- sisting of seven members, who appoint a superintendent of public instruction. The total school population is 2,225, of whom only 912 attended school the past year. The high school, with 163 pupils, is in charge of Lincoln Owen and four assistants. Thirty-two teachers are employed in the other ten schools. The total cost of the school system for the past year was $17,521.74.

STATISTICS .- The support of its poor was but a small tax to the town of Waterville, ninety years ago. In 1811 the sum of $2.59 per week was paid for the support of five paupers, the contract price rang- ing from 35 to 65 cents each. The next year twelve persons cost the town $3.48 per week. "1837 voted that the poor be sold at auction for one year which was bid off by Samuel H. Bachelder for $865."

About fifty years ago the contract system was abandoned, and a town farm of about ninety acres was purchased of Joseph Mitchell and George W. Bessey. A wood lot in Sidney was also bought later. The dwelling house on this farm was burned in March, 1890. The city soon after bouglit of George K. Boutelle seven acres of land, and built the present excellent city alms house at a total expense at $6,444. The cost of the poor department is now over $9,000 per year.

In 1820 the valuation of land in Waterville was $178,394, with $1,655 taxes and 348 polls. The total valuation in 1833 was $656,418; taxes, $1,810. The total valuation of Waterville city in 1892 was $4,576,678, and the tax was 21} mills on a dollar. The population of the town in 1850 was 3,904; 1860, 4,392; 1870, 4,882, and in 1880, seven years after the division of the town, it was 4,672. In 1890 the city of Waterville had 7,107 inhabitants.

MUSIC .- The earliest instrumental or band music in Waterville vil- lage was produced by Abel Wheeler, a music teacher, and his two sons, Erastus O. and Sumner A., with fifes and drums. This martial band was the best music obtainable at the first college commencement, and the Wheeler family's stirring strains undoubtedly quickened the zeal of Missionary Boardman, the first graduate.

A few years later the first Waterville Band was formed, the col- lege agreeing to give them $100 a year for their services each com- mencement week. Most of the members of this band belonged to Ten Lots. Their names were: Asa B. Bates, Anson Bates, Franklin Kim- ball, Thomas Marston, David B. Gibbs, Isaac Bates, Stephen Jewett and Reward Sturtevant. This band continued for many years under the leadership of Alonzo Draper, George Laselle, H. Fales, John B. Gibbs and others.
