	Virginia Compay 1612 - 1624 - Daily Republican Newspaper - The Nation's Daily
		Smith's later petition to the Virginia Company seeking a reward for past services was denied; in 1622 he proposed writing a history of Virginia, a proposal which was never endorsed by the company.
		The absence, therefore, of any reference to the Virginia Company and the enhancement of Smith's own emblem on the map itself should be seen as visual and graphic counterparts to his written attempts to enhance his own role and diminish that of the investors and managers who hired him and sent him to Virginia.
		In May 1625, Virginia and Bermuda were formally proclaimed part of the royal empire ruled by Charles I. Captain John Smith's map of Virginia, with his own arms prominently displayed and the royal seal front and center and topped by an imperial crown stated ownership of the land in no uncertain terms.

		If we call Virginia under this charter a royal province, we must remember that it had peculiar features, unlike the royal provinces of later times and such as were characteristic of the earliest stage of colonization.
		By the patentees of 1606 two colonies were planted, one at Jamestown in South Virginia and the other at Sagadahoc in North Virginia; the former by the London group of adventurers, the latter by the Plymouth group.
		On the arrival at Sagadahoc it was found that six—or possibly eight—out of the thirteen required by the charter had been designated as councillors.

	Popham Colony: A Slice of Time

		At the time the Kennebec was known as the Sagadahoc, and the little colony is also frequently referred to by that name.

		The so-called Virginia Company was divided by the royal charter into two ventures, named the London Company and the Plymouth Company.
		The London Company was granted that part of Virginia lying between 34° and 41°N, while the Plymouth Company was assigned the more northerly latitudes of 38° to 45° N. Each company was to plant its initial colony within the nonoverlapping portions of the respective grants.
		The failure had a discouraging effect upon English colonization in northern Virginia, and it was not until after the promotions of John Smith (for the land he renamed New England) and the success of the Pilgrims that the impetus was renewed.

	Editorials
		Lincoln County's present jail is too small, Sagadahoc doesn't have a jail, so the two counties got together and came up with the idea of building a regional jail.
		The closest regional jails are in Virginia, Applebee says, so they looked into that system.
		The name of the proposed jail in Wiscasset changed during the stage when it was still being discussed, going from the Lincoln/Sagadahoc Jail to Lincoln Sagadahoc Regional Jail and finally to the Lincoln Sagadahoc Multi County Jail when it was thought more than just the two counties might run or use it.
