When the Ashland reservoir Is at low water stage, in un- usually dry seasons, the old dam ex- tending from Dyer's point diagonally eastward across the pond to high banks, cen be Dlinly seen. This dam was made mainly of gravel, and by 1t a fall of about ten feet was secured onto the old overshot wheel.
 There are several people in the bor- ough who remember distinctly when these triple industries burned ten years before the war.
 Ever since the time of the operations of Mir. Tanning at this place the local fly has been known es Dor1-ville. Mir. Tanning came from Rhode Island al the time of the famous Dorr war. He was an enthusiastic Dorr supporter and he gave the locality it's name, which 1t bears to this day
