The Water Power Of Maine PDF Download

Excerpt from The Water-Power of Maine In accordance with the recommendation of Gov. Chamberlain, an exploration of the water-power of the State was ordered by the Legislature of 1867, and was entered upon under the general supervision of a Commission, consisting of Hons. John A. Poor, A. D. Lockwood and Hannibal Hamlin. The Commissioners, having conducted the enterprise through its preliminary stage, retired at the close of 1867, and should not, accordingly, be held responsible for any shortcomings of this Report. In regard to the arrangement of the water-powers, (in Part III, ) it need only be explained that such powers as are located in town ships without proper names, will be found under the letter T. All others appear under the names of the towns, townships, etc., in the appropriate alphabetical place. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
