Record Log Drive Delays Spell Unprecedented Maine Event
The Penobscot river log drivers faced an extraordinary season as a May drive extended to mid November due to delays and misfortunes. Beginning with 80 million feet from Chesancook Lake, 150 men navigated toward Millinocket, with 50 million feet sorted for a pulp firm, and a final crew of about 300 aiding in keeping logs moving despite a dry summer and a snowstorm at discharge. In Bangor the pay, about 30000 dollars, was followed by offers to return to the woods for higher wages, prompting many to leave for another logging push and jeopardize the usual Bangor carnival and saloon activity.
