Contributor: Cemetery Hopper On a short cross-road near the village there was a small shabby house occupied before 1852 by an old man named James LeBroke, and his wife. He was much bent and lame with rheumatism and used tobacco and rum altogether too freely, so that it nearly cost him his life on more than one occasion. He did odd jobs and eked out a scanty living by digging out ancient pine logs, the decaying tops of former large timber trees that had been discarded. These he sawed up into blocks to be made into shingles, with a cross-cut saw, one end of which was usually worked by some boy, who would help him out of pity in part, and partly for the "resting spells". I have often spent an hour or two at this work for him myself and can testify that it was not light work for the boys. It used to be said that he came from a good Massachusetts family.

Verrill, titled "Other Village Characters" He married Nancy Anna Beckler 27 Oct 1814, Paris, ME, they raised: Mary M., Daniel B., Augusta Anne, Samuel Gilman, James H.
