Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of New Sweden: As Told at the Quarter Centennial Celebration of the Founding of the Swedish Colony in the Woods of Maine, June 25, 1895 Tuesday, June 25, 1895, was a day of jubilee in New Sweden. On that day, Maine´s Swedish settlement celebrated the twenty-fifth year of its existence - the quarter-centennial anniversary of the day when the first little Swedish colony of Maine sailed from old Sweden, to make a new home in the primeval forests of the Pine Tree state. The day dawned gloomily. A dull rain fell from a leaden sky and the cold north wind blew. But the rain soon ceased, though threatening clouds still obscured the heavens, and the wind dropped to a refreshing summer breeze. At an early hour all roads leading to New Sweden were crowded with carriages and pedestrians. Along the smooth, level turnpike from Caribou rolled a continuous procession of hundreds of vehicles.
