Finally l saw a sign- Residence of the Good Father Time. With sudden realization, I decided this was where I wanted to go. I timidly went to the door and knocked. Almost at once a white-haired old gentleman with a long, long beard came to the door. Father Time? I asked. Yes, m girl. What can I do for you'? he replied. I have been assigned to write the History of Malone for our T952 Yearbook. I need some help, I managed to stammer. Come right in and have a seat, little lady. I'm going to help you. Gratefully I found m self a chair on a nice, comfortable cloud and settled down to listen. Now let me see: About one hundred and fifty years ago, Enos, John and Nathan Wood came from Vermont and settled within the boundaries of Malone. These persons were the first settlers. Soon others followed. Most of our early stock came here from Vermont and were, therefore, mostly of Puritan beliefs-- living simply and working hard. It wasn't until much later in T838 that many French people came to live in those parts. The'Papineau Rebellion at that time drove them from Canada. They came iust as the early Englishmen had come, lacking provisions and money. Yes, but why did they call our town Malone'? I asked. It's this way. Malone Village was first called the Center . Although there are many theories attached to this phase of the history, it has been confirmed that the name came from Edmond Malone, an Irish- Shalcespearean scholar. The name Malone dates back approximately to I8l2. Probably no town of Malone was ever intended. A man by the name of Macomb bought all of the land in this part of the state. Macomb made his great purchase of about four million acres at around eight cents an acre. A man by the name of Constable had also made some investments. In T792 a failure of the stock market caused both Macomb and Constable to lose money. Constable went to Europe to sell his interest, but Macomb' sold most of his at a great loss. E 2
