Amid the hills of New England

Saco has its birth. As the
mountain rill gathers strength

ur niaes in conway s iraerant DraKes
Retreating from the glare of day.
Now it leaves the mountains and flows
through "green Fryeburg's woods and
' farms." In the course of its frequent
turns and twists aud bends it tueots
with many another stream aud scuds it,
fuller and stronger, along its rejoicing
way. When it hay journeyed more
than 100 miles and ia neariug the ocean.
1 it greets the Great Ossipee river aud
i accepts its crystal tribute. Then in its
! turn the Little Ossipee joius forces
' and the river, now a splendid stream,
I flows onward to Bouuy Eagle, to Mod
! eration and to Sahnbu fulls, where it
I dashes over the dam like a young
J Niagara and hurtles in a foamy torrent
through the ragged detiie out between
. lofty banks of solid rock.
I Widening out placidly for a moment's
1 rest in the sunny reaches near Fleas
ant point, it gathers itself for a new
plunge at Union falls, after which it
speedily merges itself in the bay and is
'. fresh water no more.
At one of the falls on the Saco the
two little hamlets of Edgewood and
' Riverboro nestle together at the bridge
and make one village. The stream is a
wonder of beauty just here, a mirror
of placid loveliness above the dam, a
tawny, roaring wouder at the fall and
a mad. white flecked torrent as it
dashes on its way to the ocean.
The river has seen strange sights In
Its time, though the history of these
two tiny villages is quite unknown to
the great world outside. They have
been born, waxed strong and fallen
almost to decay while Saco water has
tumbled over the rocks and spent itself
In its Impetuous journey to the sea.
It remembers the yellow mocraslned
Sokokls as they issued from the Indian
Cellar and carried their birchen canoes
along tbe wooded shore. It was In
those years that the silver skinned sal-
mon leaped In Its crystal depths, the
yOtter and the beaver crept with sleek
wet sKins upon its snore nuu me
brown deer came down to quench his
I thirst at Its brink, while at twilight

of Sunnybrook Farm
! the great saws buzzed, the smoke from
tavern chimneys rose in the air, and
the ratt)e aud c,atter of stagecoacne8
resounded along the road.
Now children paddled with bare feet
In the rivers sandy coves and shal
lows, and lovers sat on its alder shaded
banks and exchanged their vows Just
wholva fho HhllffllT, P wlls wni to
come down and drink.
The Saco could remember the "cold
year," when there was a black frost
every month of the twelve, and.
though almost all the corn along Its
shores shriveled on the stalk, there
were two farms where the vapor from
the river saved the crops, and all the
seed for the next season came from the
favored spot, to be known as "Egypt"
from that day henceforward.
Strange, complex things now began
to happen, and the river played its own
part In some of these, for there were
disastrous freshets, the sudden break
ing up of great jams of logs and the
drowning of men who were engulfed
In the dark whirlpool below the rapids.
Caravans, with menageries of wild
beasts, crossed the bridge now every
year. An Infuriated elephant lifted the
side of the old Edgewood tavern barn.
and the wild laughter of the roistering
, r(jm drlnkers wno were tantalizing the
animals floated down to the river's
j edge. The roar of a lion, tearing and
. chewing the arm of one or the Dy-
standers, and the cheers of the throng
when a plucky captain of the local
! militia thrust a stake down the beast's
I throat these sounds displaced the for
' mer warwhoop of the Indians and the
ring of the ax In the virgin forests
' along the shores.
There were days and moonlight
' nights, too, when strange sights and
, sounds of quite another nature could
have been noted by the river as It
' flowed under the bridge that united
. the two little villages.
I Issuing from the door of the River
boro townhouse and winding down the
hill through the long row of teams and
carriages that lined the roadside, came
a procession of singing men and slng
' Ing women. Convinced of sin, but en
tranced with promised pnrdou, spiritu
' ally inl ixicated by the plowing elo
i quence of the latter day prophet they
were worshiping, the band of "Cocb
' ranites" inarched down the dusty road
aud across the bridge, darning, sway
ing, waving handkerchiefs and shout
' ing hosannas. - - "-j&t
God watched and listened, knowing
that there would be other prophets,
' true and false, in the days to corned
, juid other processions following them.
And the river ''watched and listened,
too, as it hurried on toward the sea
' with its story of the present that was
some time to be the history of the past
When Jacob Cochrane was leading
i big overwrought, ecstatic band across
. the river, Waitstill Baxter, then a
child was watching the strange, noisy
company from the window of a little
: brick dwelling ou the top of the Town
i House hill.
Her stepmother stood beside her
. with a young baby in her arms, but
when she saw what held the gaze of
i the child she drew her away, saying.
I "We mustn't look, W?altstill; your fa
ther don't 'Ike it!"
"Who was the big man at the head,
mother?"
"His name is Jacob Cochrane, but
you mustn't think or talk about him.
He is very wicked."
"He doesn't look any wickeder than
the others." said the child. "Who was
the man that fell down in the road.
j mother, and the woman that knelt and
prayed over him? Why did he fall, and
I WDy did she pray, mother?"
"That was Master Aaron Boynton,
I the schoolmaster, and his wife. He
only made neiieve to ran aown, as tne
Cochranites do; the way they carry on
Is a disgrace to the village, and that's
the reason your father won't let ns
look at them."
"I played with a nice boy Over to
Boynton's," mused the child.
"That was Ivory, their only child.
He Is a good little fellow, hut ''is
mother and father will spoil hi ta with
their crazy ways.",,, , ..
"I hope nothing will happen to him.
for I love him." sold tlie. child gravely.
'He showed me a bujmming' bird's test..
the first 1 ever saw, nnd the littlest!" '
f "Don't talk about loving him." chid-
ed tbe woman t'lf your father should .:.
