Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1892. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... notes concerning ancient augusta at small point. contributed by rev. henry O. thayer. In my note-book of past historical studies of the Sagadahoc region, I find materials which will extend somewhat the history of Small Point and its stone fort. It seems a fitting time to offer them as a supplement to the carefully studied article of Mr. H. W. Wheeler in the July Quarterly. It is worthy of mention, that John Penhallow of Portsmouth, son of Judge Penhallow, the historian, early began a business career in Boston with James Pemberton. Then as early as July, 1716, he is said to have had "a business connection with Captain Oliver Noyes, Esq., Physician, so styled."' This "connection," whatever it was, may be regarded as a main cause for his going to Small Point, where he probably acted as the agent of Mr. Noyes, as well as prosecuted his own aims. We may hesitate to believe it a definite partnership, since at this time he was partner with Mr. John Watts, and engaged in the "down east" trade. Oliver Noyes, Esq., evidently took a leading part in the Pejepscot Company's operations at Small Point, but he also put forward schemes of his own. For in 1718, April 23, the Company granted him three hundred acres in Augusta township, in consideration of his expenses and loss in settling the town.1 Possibly the erection of the stone fort was one large item in the expenditure. Also 1719, November, the Company voted: --"If Mr. Noyes shall gain from the sea by a dam a pond near his house at Harbor Farm on Atkins' Bay, the land shall be his." I am not assured of the location of this farm, but Noyes had a stone house which stood on the westerly margin of Atkins' Bay over against Po...
