''He played safe by building
half way between" commented Mr..
Thomas, adding that in early days
Tridelphia was much nearer the
center of the Sandy Spring Com
munity than either Spencerville or
Hollands Corner.
Muslin, duck and products of
the grist mill were hauled regu-
larly to Baltimore and raw cotton
and other supplies brought back.
1t is said that the factory made
duck for the Union Army at the
beginning of the War between the
states. For time business was
so prosperous that 10 percent was
paid on capital stock.
1t is recorded that a flood in
1868 swept away part of the town.
The grist mill and blacksmith
shop remained in operation. how
ever, and the mails continued, but
the town never recovered. A seq
ond flood in 1889 destroyed all
possibilities of restoration and the
ruined village became a ghost
town-a haunt of picnickers."
When in 1905, the son of & for
mer minister in the little church,
who remembered the village as it
had been fifty years before, re-
turned to the scene of his child
hood, he wrote that he could hard
ly believe his eyes when he beheld

Certificates Awarded at
Annual LOfstrand Outing

Over three hundred employees
of The Lofstrand Company and
their families attended the second
annual outing which was held last
Saturday at Southlawn Farm,
Rockville, the home of A. R. Lof-
strand, Sr. Swimming, a tug-of-
war, sack races, and baseball gave
all an appetite for the barbecue,
corn-on-the-cob, potatoes and to-
matoes which followed. Highlight
of the feast for the kiddies was the
arrival of a Good Humor truck,
coupled with an invitation to each
child to "eat as many as you
want" This "for free" chance,
surpassed only by Christmas,
threw havoc among the young
sters. Cine little girl was over
heard saying, just witch l could
have another one, but l guess l
can't make it. I've had seven al
ready"
Seven apprentice certificates
were awarded by A. R. Lofstrand,
Jr., to veterans who have COM
pleted four years of training I'M
der the G. l. bill. All Montgonl-
cry County men, most of them
have spent their entire 4-year
training period at the Lofstrand
plant. They are Jesse W. Davis,
machinist, Albert L. Hammaros,
tool maker, Lloyd L. Combs, ma
chinist, Harper F. Shieb, mac'in-
list, Francis L. Federine, machin-
list, John B. Stanley, machinist,
and Willard M. Allnutt, sheet met
al worker.
A number OF the products of
The Lofstrand Company are known
throughout the world, both on war
and civilian fronts. Interestingly
enough, just this week A. +. Lof-
strand, Jr., received a letter from
a Public Health Service officer
from this area who was attending
a health conference in Bangkok,
Thailand (Siam). Said he, "The
Lofstrand sprayers are being wide
ly used in this part of the world
in carrying forth the effort for
malaria control
The collapsible elb o W.T. Y p e
crutches so often seen at Walter
Reed were developed by Mr.. Lof-
strand, who presented 1000 to
Walter Reed Hospital Also made
at the Lofstrand plant are light
weight aluminium brace parts for
veterans, which make walking
much easier than it was with the
old fashioned heavier braces.

A mobile wood and metal work
ing shop is made at the Haledon,
N. j. associate plant. 1t can be
set up right on the field, where all
kinds of necessary equipment can
be made on the spot. Another
kind of m bile unit is the flood
light trailer and flood light mast
which can light up areas for night
installation work. Other devices
used by the armed forces are chain
saw sharpeners, survey beacons
and mine field markers.
The Company is perhaps best
known for its glass washing and
sterilizing machines, devel ped by
Mr.. Lofstrand, ST., which are
used in many hotels, factolIe;; and
restaurants, and are now speci-
fed for al Veterans Administra-
ton Hospitals.
The Plant also does secret re-
search work for Naval Ordnance,
which has made it necessary for
the grounds 70 be fenced. All 17j
employees must meet security reg
ulations. A new wing has been
added to replace the one destroyed
by fire early in the year.
Founded some 16 years age, the
Lofstrand Company moved to
Rockville from Silver Spring in
1915.

To go back a bit; Triadelphia
was reorganized and Incorporated
as the Montgomery Company in
1889; in 1879 it was purchased by
the widow Of Thomas Lansdale for
$4,000. It remained the property
of the Lansdale family until sold
to P. G. Lyon and Richard Lans-
dale in 1880. Later, Mr.. Lyon be-
came sole owner. In 1941 Mr.. Lii
gon sold the entire holdings to the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission.
All during it's history up to the
time it was acquired by the Com
mission Triadelphia was beset by
floods-Richard Lansdale of San
dy Spring tells of a flood in which
he fled with the family-the little
boy carrying a hen.
The dam forming the lake was
completed in 1913. The Commits
sion now owns 1873 acres around

The public is allowed to enjoy
the watershed to the fullest ex-
tent consistent with its use as a
water supply-there are two pic
mic areas, one near the old village
and one at the site of the dam
near Brighton. Fishing is allow
ed from boats and from certain
shore locations. Power boats are
not allowed, bathing and hunting
not permitted. Fishing and boat
permits are secured at a small! fee
at the dam where watchmen are in
attendance "a hours a day.
The man-made lake has drowned
the old ghost town Of Triadelphia
but something very beautiful has
arisen-it is well that the old name
has been perpetuated.

pounding dam built in 1941 by the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission, it covers an area
some six miles in extent, just
north of Brookeville and serves in
part as a boundary between Mont
gomery and Howard Counties.
"The hum of the mill wheels
erected in the early 1905 has been
forgotten; the Philadelphia bell is
still; but to local historians the
memories of six and eight horse
teams laboring over corduroy
roadbeds hauling cotton products
from Tridelphia to Baltimore, vie
for interest with the wild ducks
and ospreys that now make Tri-
delphia Lake their home"
Tridelphia was laid out on a sur
vey purchased from the Gather
family in 1909. From a small be-
ginning, but with well laid plans,
it grew until it was a complete
factory unit. To quote historian
R. Bentley Thomas. who owns the
old bell, records and other relics:
cat one time there was a cotton
factory, grist mill, sawmill, quar-
ry, store, bank, church, school,
stables, community spring house,
Odd Fellows Hall and a Post Of
flee"
To again quote Mr.. Thomas:
when Isaac Hartshorn came down
from Philadelphia in 1852 he was
advised to settle near Triadelphia
since it had three mails a week
and Sandy Spring but one."

Comparatively few of the pee
pie who visit Triadelphia Lake or
Brighton Dam-to picnic at the
stone fireplaces, to fish or go boat
ing-realize that beneath the clear,
blue waters lay the remains of a
once busting factory town, per
haps larger in its heyday than the
county seat was at that time.
Founded by three brothers-in-
law, Isaac Briggs, Thomas Moore,
and Caleb Bentley and named
Philadelphia" in Difference to their
family connection and their Qua
ker faith, the town is now blotted
out by the water backed up by
the dam, and remembered only by
older residents and the Sandy
Spring descendants of the buildl
ers. Each of the founders had
married a daughter of Roger
Brooke " and his wife, Mary
Matthews.
