Excerpt from Olde Cascoe: Ye Romance of Casco Bay Like the Lost Arts of Egypt, the story that began with the coming of Du Guast to the Island of the Holy Cross and of Weymouth to the waters of the Sagadahoc is as a tale that is told. From the Revela tion of Ingram of the Golden City of the Bessabez, whose roofs outshone the setting sun among the dusky pines of Kadesquit, one unreels a tenuous thread of romance along which are hung the more modest annals of Champlain, Smith, Rosier, and Strachey. That there were once days of isolate and scanty living along the Maine Coast, peopled by a sturdy race of men and women, Whose cabin-smokes blew away on the wind that followed the indents of the Gulf of Maine from the Piscataqua to beyond the Sagadahoc, is become a landmark of history. Like the Israelites, they were a peculiar people. For the Wilderness of Zin, were the untrodden wilds of an in hospitable country beset with unknown perils of climate and unaroused savagery, where they began the building of a new state and a new civilization.
