The most prominent feature in the history of Bath and conspicuously identified with its business and growth is that which is connected with the construction and sailing of vessels. The history of the building of vessels on the Kennebec dates back nearly three centuries. Before the Pilgrim fathers had landed at Plymouth, before settlers had permanently established themselves in the New World, before any industry had set up its standands on this side of the Atlantic, the great business of building ships had begun on the Kennebec in the construction of the Virginia by the Popham colony. None of the undertakings that came afterwards were so strongly and lastingly established as the business of building ships. It has been identified with the country's growth and greatness from the very first, and its fluctuations have been the sure thermometer of the country's varying fortunes. In times of peace and plenty, the ships of the Kennebec have carried the country's products to every sea and every clime, and brought back in trade the choicest products of every nation. In times of war, the sailors trained on American merchant-men have been the bulwark of the nation against the invading navies of her foes. Great is the glory that has come to our country by the brave deeds of our sailor-men in the war of 1812, and great the prosperity that has come to our country by the achievements of our merchant marine in times of peace before and since that event. At the time when Bristol was the chief port of commerce in England, the ships hailing from there were considered models in build and rig; consequently when an American ship was rigged in a notably rakish style, it was remarked by seafaring men that she was "taut-rigged and Bristol...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Bath and Environs: Sagadahoc County, Maine, 1607-1894 Schools. - The list of principals of the high school, as given on pages 206 and 221, was from the recollection of high authority, the city records not giving a full list of teachers. All records of the High street academy and the earlier years of the high school have been lost, and the memories of those who were students in those schools in years past differ as to their recollection of the full list of teachers. Some of these old pupils confound the principals of the academy and high school on the basis that as the academy was merged into the high school they were essentially one and the same. Combining the principals of both schools, verbal authorities give the list as Jonas Burnham, F. Yeaton, Hawes, Granger, Blanchard, A. B. Wiggin, J. T. Huston, J. L. Newton, L. Dunton, S. B. Goodnow, Wood bury, Crosby, Galen Allen, George E. Hughes, H. E. Cole, which, as far as can be gathered, includes all those who have been the teachers without regard to order of dates of their employment or in which school they taught. The most reliable list of principals of the high school alone, as obtained from the recollection of several who have been students, is: Goodnow, Woodbury, Wiggin, Crosby, Newton, Dunton, Allen, Hughes.
