WARD AND M1TCHELL's MILL.

The foundation timbers of what is
now known as the Upper Tumwater
Mill was laid in 1852, by Messrs. Ira
Ward, n. Barnes and S. Hays. 1t was
small structure with single sash saw
and capable of cutting from 1000 to
5000 feet of lumber per day, which
was quite ample to supply the demand,
existing at that time. There was no
road in those days between this place
and Tumwater, and all communication
was effected by water, in the primitive
Indian canoe. Lumber was RATED to
town, and tie first railroad in Washing
Territory was then built, leading from
the mill to the head of the Sound, a
distance of about a quarter of a mile,
on which for several years all the lum-
Der was carried to tide-water.
. In 1868, Messrs. William Mitchell
and S. N. Cooper associated themselves
