Statue of King Preaches to Lumbermen of Bath
Bath editorials urge erecting a statue to William King in the square around the federal building and post office. The piece recounts King’s rise from barefoot youth to Maine’s first governor and suggests funding via state appropriation or public subscription while noting Bath’s historic square and earlier civic actions. It also profiles Rev. G H Bowie, a 71-year-old Universalist missionary prepared to inhabit Maine forests for winters, traveling by snowshoe with violin and bearskin coat.
