1889-90 Annual Report & School Report of Hampden, Maine


Annual Report of the Selectmen and the Report of the Supervisor of Schools of the Town of Hampden, Maine, for the Year 1889-90.  

Printed in Bangor, Maine by Mooney & Hurley, Printers, 1890.

It seems there was no privacy afforded back then to people needing Town help.   The section on schools is very interesting, with names of Agents, Teachers and the School Supervisor.  The latter wrote a scathing opinion of the Agents.
