James Fellows (1837-1914), a native of Skowhegan, worked as cashier of the Second National Bank in Skowhegan for 49 years.
He introduced his daughter to the violin -- although she was reluctant to even hold one at first.
She wrote, "My father played the violin, and though self taught, he had a sense of tempo and rhythm that made my toes tingle to dance. He played old jigs and reels of bygone days."
