Remembering the Gay Nineties in Freeport and Bath
Seth writes of vanished crafts and old pleasures from the 1890s. He recalls Freeport cheese discs sold at Wath market, compressed yeast trade via Fred Osgood’s wagon, and the potato yeast era. He recalls painted pine chamber sets, old dances, Union Hall gatherings, and moonlit sleigh rides to Jake Conant’s for supper and a midnight dance. The piece ends with a nostalgic question about whether the world grows better.
