born found this date on the wall. 1t was
constructed of big timbers, most OF which
were yet sound. Ii was used originally
as single mill and storehouse for
cable from the grist mill. When the grist
mill burned years ago, this building es-
capped destruction. Mr. Kllborn expects
TO use most of the timber constructing
