Three Paper Mills Operated.

The c. M. Robertson company has three big paper mills on the Oxoboxo. They are known as the Red, Rockland and Bank mills. At the Rockland property is also located a large paper box manufactory which is owned by the Robertson interests.
 The Palmer Bros. quilt mill is one of the big industries of the town. The first use of the water privilege at that place was for a fulling mill. Later there was a gristmill there, and still later a distillery. In 1880 Elisha L. Palmer and others purchased the priv ilege and began the manufacture of cotton ropes and twine. Later the quilt business was taken up on a very limited scale, but the business flour ished and now is one of the biggest of the kind in the country.
 Further down the stream Is the stone mill that for many years was operated by the late R. G. Hooper. It is still known as Hooper's mill to the older people, although it has been op- erated by several other companies since his death, and is now used as a manufactory for strawboard and other paper products.
 Mills at UncasviIle.
 Still lower down the stream is the Pequot mills, and then at Uncasville the big plant of the Uncasville Manu- featuring company is still doing busi- Ress. Johnson's dye mill, one of the older manufactOries, has given wav to the approaches of the Thames Special ties company on the river bank.
 IL was near the mouth of the Oxo- boxo brook that the first machinery for the manufacture of woolen cloth in Connecticut was operated by water power. John and Arthur Schofield started the mill in 179S.
 In the old days the first thing to be considered in establishing a mill was cheap power, and there is nothing cheaper than water. On that account the Oxoboxo privilege attracted manu- featuring from the earliest times There are some disadvantages. how ever, connected with manufacturing al distance from the railroads. Fol | years it was necessary to cart the raw | material over the by no means. fine roads from the railroad station to tho most remote mill and bring the fin 1 ished product back for shipment tC | Its destination.
