Portland Museum

''There is a spirit of loyalty that is more pronounced in the people of Portland...A love for this section of the city which compels the inhabitants to cling to it, which incites youth to dwell in the house of his father and his father's father. There is a spirit of friendliness, too, the like of which is hardly found in any other part of the city. Perhaps the river, which has bound these people to one another and to the very land which it has tried to take away from them.''
Father John Lyons, 1939
