A high voltage aerial cable break on Washington Street at the Central Maine Power substation caused about an hour of citywide power loss in Bath on Monday.

Police and fire radio units lacked power briefly until City Hall generator began operating within moments, restoring service to regular circuits. The Bath Memorial Hospital avoided the outage. passenger pigeons are said to derive their name from an early Indian term meaning wanderers.
