GET MIXED UP
There have been weird cases of
confusion during the battle. Lieut.
enant John B. Armstrong, 1879
Lake Ave, Altadena, Cal, told me
of several instances of Americans
and Germans sleeping in different
rooms of the same house. Arm

at night to take a quick look at a

them to the draw, and marched
them away with upraised hands.

first Board OF Directors elected
May, 1868, consisted OF: Samuel
Barnard; Lambert A. Barnes. Isaac
N. Conklin, william H. Myers, and
John w. Van Cleve.
The construction OF the mill was
begun in the spring OF 1867 for one
paper machine, and the first paper
was made in 1868.
An important factor in the de-
clsion to build the mill at this time
was the fortunate circumstance OF
obtaining a contract from the Chi
cago Tribune TO take the output of
the mill in newsprint. At that time
newsprint was made from rags,
and IL is interesting to note that
the price on this contract was II
cents per pound.
After the mill was built and OPP
Grating. the Chicago Tribune in
sisted that the Peninsular Paper
Company build another mill, far
enough removed from the original
mill TO safeguard the newspapers
supply in case of fire. May 8, 1876,
therefore, the capitalization was in
creased from $4,000 to 100000,
and another one-machine mill was
erected on the north side OF the
Huron River. This was operated
until September 2s, 1898. when it
was destroyed by fire. All salvaged
machinery was then removed TO the
original building which was en-
larged to accommodate two paper
machines and the additional re-
quirement for increased output.
BY this time, 1898 wood pulp
and groundwork were being used
extensively in the manufacture Of
lower priced papers, particularly
newsprint, which had greatly re-
duced the cost OF manufacture and
therefore the selling p'ice, and the
company found it difficult to COM
pete with the larger mills equipped
with their own pulpmaking and
wood-grinding machirery. -.
During all these Years, the Pen
insular Paper Company had been
making rag papers. Tue machinery
OF the mill had been selected and
installed for rag paper production:
the paper makers were rag men"
