1890 's about Fryeburg in Maine (ME) 1893 Original magazine article.Removed from an antique magazine. Quite Scarce.
12 pages with 12 illustrations.
Please take a look at the article's sample page(s).
Darby Field came up the Saco in his canoe with his Indian boatmen, and stopped at Pequawket to secure guides into the wilderness before him. Here where the parallel 440 N. crosses the river, just on the border of the present town and the boundary of the state, he found a flourishing Indian village of 250 inhabitants. He was then at a point where the remainder of his journey would lie among the high mountains, for the foot- hills extending into the present town ter- minated in an elevation some 6oo feet high. This elevation is now called Starks Hill, deriving its name from William Stark, the brother of Gen. John Stark, who ascended it on his early exploring tours. Let us take this hill as the point from which we are to view the beauties of Fryeburg, and ascend by the straight path now traversing its longest slope, exactly half a mile, and stand on its summit, where the bold explorer stood when the only inhabitants here were Indians, and the only names known to him relating to the region were White Hills, Saco, and Pequawket. This hill lies exactly in the course taken by Capt. John Lovewell and his men in 1725 after leaving Ossipee; and without doubt from the hill or from one of its lower foothills he followed the brook, rising at its base to the pond, both now bearing his name, where, as the early record says, he met his fate. From this point too, he may have first seen the lone Indian who was fishing on the white beach of the pond. Skirting the foot of the hill from west to east, in close contact, runs the Moun- tain Division of the Maine Central Rail- road, at this point fifty miles from Port- land and forty miles from Fabyans, at the foot of Mt. Washington. Just here the railroad approaches the Saco almost at right angles, and, barely giving room for the highway between, it turns abruptly, running para!lel to the river, which has entered Maine on!y half a mile above. It is now easy to understand why the Indians chose this location for their vil- lage. In New Hampshire the Saco was narrow, with many rapids, and too shallow for their canoes; here it is wider and deeper, and, as if to suit their lazy dispo- sition, it runs close under the high banks on which their village was situated, so that Main Street.
was one who served with gallantry in the Revolutionary War. Swarson was also a soldier, and was the recipient of a sword for his bravery. Mollocket and her hus- band, Sabatis, were well-known characters in the early days of The Seven Lots. Occasionally some relic of the Indian is still found. Only last summer a fine speci- men of a mortar was ploughed up. Once in a while a seated skeleton is unearthed. The imaginative person, as he watches the eastern shores of Lovewells Pond, may discover the western-pointing arrow, formed by the outline of Mt. Tom as the head, the stretch of woods the shaft, and Mt. Pleasant the feathered end, completed by the reflection in the waters of the pond. Starr King says that this pond is more deeply dyed with tradition than any lake in New England. Be that as it may, it is a lake often dyed with the sunset tinges and the reflected colors of its surrounding scenery. Its surface is pierced by two small islands, and along its shores grow the water lilies. It is the last stage of the round river journey, and the glori- ous expanse of mountains rising in the west makes a picture never to be forgotten. The words of Howells, quoted at the beginning, were a pen picture of Fryeburg village in winter; and now having made the circle of the town, the gem of all remains, the village: Dear Fryeburg, fair art thou! Time writes upon thy brow No furrows deep. The village is close to the edge of the high bank above the intervales, which makes a halfcircle, a natural amphitheatre before a grand display of hills and mountains. From the foot of Starks Hill, from which the birds-eye view of the town was taken, the highway ascends the ris- ing ground, passing the house at the head of a deep plunging valley, as A Modern Instance has it, and then it becomes Main Street, extending per- fectly straight for a mile, shaded by double rows of elm-trees that make a lofty arch over the carriage-way beneath. The street is wide, with grass plots be- tween the travelled way and the side walks; on one side the track of the Fryeburg horse railroad, connecting the Assembly Grove with the Maine Central Railroad, and on which the cars run regularly during the summer season, thus giving the citizens advantages known usually only to cities or large towns. The width of the street is made the greater by the deep lawns and yards of the houses. Main Street is the principal residential street of the village, and many of the homesteads date back to the early days of Fryeburg. Of the other thorough- fares, extending either side of Main Street, Portland Street is the oldest; and this too is cloistered by the elms. The junction of Main and Portland Streets in early times was called the Whirlpool, of the trade and business of fhe town and Portland Street was dubbed Leather Lane, on account of the leather workers located there. There, too, was an iron foundry which did creditable work; and there hatters carried on their business, one of them was a brother of the pub- lisher, D. Appleton, and now lies at rest in the little village burying-ground. But as time went on, and the railroad came to the town, the business drifted in that direction, and now the shops and stores are scattered over a large territory. The Congregational Church, the mother of all the churches of various denomina- tions which exist or have existed in the town, and which has had a life of more than a century, occupies a stately edifice on Main Street, being the second house of worship in the village. Its pulpit has been filled by men of sterling worth, to xvhose efforts much credit for the high Kezar Pond Meadows.

1925 orig Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot Beauvais France Original Antique 1925 Magazine Page. Print size about 14" long by 10" wide.(350mm x 250mm)
from Wikipedia:
Camille Corot was born in Paris in 1796, in a house on the Quai by the rue du Bac, now demolished. His family were bourgeois people, and unlike the experience of some of his artistic colleagues, throughout his life he never felt the want of money. After an education at Rouen, he apprenticed to a draper, but hated commercial life and despised what he called its "business tricks," yet he faithfully remained in it until he was 26, when his father consented to his adopting the profession of art.
Corot learned little from his masters. He visited Italy on three occasions, and two of his Roman studies hang in the Louvre. A regular contributor to the Salon, in 1846 the French government decorated him with the cross of the Légion d'Honneur, and he was promoted to an officer in 1867. His many friends considered, nevertheless, that he was officially neglected, and in 1874, a short time before his death, they presented him with a gold medal. He died in Paris and was buried at Père Lachaise.
A number of followers called themselves Corot's pupils. The best known are Camille Pissarro, Eugène Boudin, Berthe Morisot, Stanislas Lépine, Antoine Chintreuil, François-Louis Français, Le Roux, and Alexandre DeFaux.
During the last few years of his life he earned large sums with his pictures, which were in great demand. In 1871 he gave £2000 for the poor of Paris, under siege by the Prussians.(see: Franco-Prussian War) During the actual Paris Commune he was at Arras with Alfred Robaut. In 1872 he bought a house in Auvers as a gift for Honoré Daumier, who by then was blind, without resources, and homeless. In 1875 he donated 10.000 francs to the widow of Millet in support of her children. His charity was near proverbial. He also financially supported the keep of a daycenter for children, rue Vandrezanne in Paris.
The works of Corot are housed in museums in France and the Netherlands, Britain and America.
