Along the line of the Trenton-New

town and Dayton, is a ramshackle old
barn, at the end Of which are a wind
mill tower and a windmill that look
like . piece out Of Dutch landscape.
The natives tell wonderful stories of
the mills history-how II was brought
from Holland in sections many years
ago and erected by the then owner
of the farm, a worthy descendant of a
line Of burghers with an ancestry that
would give him the seat of honor at a
reunion of the Holland society. As
matter Of fact, however, the mill is
only about 20 years old, and it was
buiH by an Irish carpenter, who was
employed by the Scotchman who &C.
cupied the farm, renting II from a
Frenchman who then held title TO the
property. But il makes an interest
