      Artificers
      "Artificer" was the military term applied to the skilled civilian and off-duty military craftsmen employed by the Engineer Department. The civilian artificers who came from Halifax with the Engineer Department included:
      Carpenters @ 5/- per diem

      Belfast
      Belfast was just across Penobscot Bay from Castine, and after the American defeat there in 1779, immediate preparations for departure were made...
      Soon after the evacuation of Belfast, a party of twelve men commanded by Sergeant David Jenks, ventured from Camden to drive away some of the cattle that had been abandoned, and which Richard Stimson, who had been left behind, probably with his father Ephraim Stimson, at Mount Ephraim, was to assist in finding. They made the deserted house of Samuel Houston in the eastern part of the town their place of rendezvous, and passed the night there.

      In the morning Jenks went to the shore to shoot wild fowl, and a dense fog prevailing, he was surprised and taken prisoner by three men named Armstrong, Cookson and Turner who had landed from Castine on an expedition of plunder. The better to deceive the men remaining at the house they marched Jenks towards it with his musket on his shoulder.

      Supposing them to be friends, Stimson and others came out to meet them. A struggle at once ensued. Stimson, although a small sized man, was brave and strong. Being summoned by Armstrong to surrender, he dropped his musket, and seizing Armstrong by the legs threw him upon the ground, calling to Jenks, "Blow him through." The latter immediately fired, the bullet going through Armstrong's brain, producing instant death. In the affray, Cookson stabbed Stimson in the arm with a bayonet. As soon as Jenks discharged his musket, he turned and struck Cookson down; but the latter recovered himself, and with Turner escaped to their boat.

      The thick fog rendered pursuit useless. Stimson always imputed cowardice to the remainder of the party, as from the house they witnessed the affair and rendered no assistance.
      ...
      A romantic incident in this connection has been handed down. A beautiful sister of Stimson was compelled by the British to hold a lantern at the grave, it being dark before the disinterment was completed. Attracted by her appearance, one Turner, who was of the number, continued the acquaintance, and after the war closed married her.

      SALMON POOL LANE - Begins at 752 Townhouse Road, 1 mile North of the intersection of Townhouse Road and Pittston Rd.. (1478' (.28 miles) long). From the name of a place there where a cold spring empties into the Sheepscot and Atlantic Salmon would gather in summer. On land owned by Thomas Turner before 1780.

      Turner Preble Mills
      Soon after coming to Whitefield in 1775 Richard Turner is said to have built a sawmill about one mile above the Great Falls. Turner's mill was on the west side of the river near where Tavern Brook [across from Philbrick Lane under Townhouse Road] flows into the Sheepscot. There was a mill yard and a road giving access to Townhouse Road. In 1800 this mill was described as being near the home of Thomas Turner. Thomas at that time appears to have been living just north of Tavern Brook where Turner's Tavern is said to have stood. Thomas and his brother Nicholas exchanged this point of land more than once.
