81. F. Pillsbury & Son have sold 5000 |
acres of land on the east side Of Willoughby |
Lake to Parker Young Co., of Lisbon, N.
H. The soft wood will be cut off and
fioated down the river to Evansville where
it will be sawed into lumber for their
Barton Landing plant. They think Of
putting in portab BILE mill at Long Pond to
manufacture their hard wood. The Pills.
burys are now negotiating with parties to
buy their land and mill on the west side of
WilIoughby Lake and also their cottage
and farm. 1t would seem as though they
were anxious to get out of Westmore as
they feel that the atmosphere has been
little too bracing and that they are hardly
healthy enough to stand it another April.
