John Willis Osier has published his long-awaited memoirs of life in the Bremen, Maine.  Called "As I Remember..." it consists of stories from his days as a boy and young man.  All the Hilton family members should read this.  Copies are available from John for only a small charge of $11.50 to help cover the printing costs.  The Bremen Library has a copy also.  In addition to urging him to put his stories down in writing, John's daughter Connie Osier Gauvin edited and formatted the book for printing.  As she says in the foreword,    "What a wonderful gift for future generation."
