breakfast. and In less than fifteen min
utes after the mill had stopped the cx-
plosion took place, wrecking the entire
mill. The engine was blown ninety ydrds
from It's location. and the boiler some
sixty feet. Wheel-hands and pieces OF
machinery were found after the wreck
40 and 200 yards from the scene. Lumber
was blown 10 pieces, and scattered in
