MINOT — The Minot Historical Society will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 13, at the Minot Town Office. David Sargent will be the guest speaker. Sargent, a native of Auburn, is author of “River Views,” a twice monthly column of Androscoggin Valley history in the Lewiston Sun Journal.

He was a general assignment reporter for the Lewiston Daily Sun in the 1960s and he founded, edited and published Business Focus, a monthly news journal, in the 1990s.
