Resettlement at Sagadahoc in Henry Thayer’s Twelfth Paper
The Pejepscot Company and agent Joseph Heath mapped land from Norridgewock to Phipsburg, laying out long reach tracts and building a house in 1719. James Lindall and Thornton neighbors expanded settlement as Parker heirs divided the estate in 1732, with Nequasset mills rebuilt and new settlers like Gilmore Savage and Stinson shaping the town.

A Cruise Around South America Aboard the Kroonland
On January 715, the road ship Kroonland left New York amid a heavy snowstorm for a Pioneer Trip around South America. The narrator recalls Havana’s Morro and Cathedral sights, Kingston’s Castleton Gardens, and a Panama Canal crossing as the first large passenger ship to pass through.
