Historical Features of Accident
From the June Issue Of The GIades st
LUMBER

About 1894, j. w. Mccullough, OF
Friendsville, Maryland, and II. f
Clark, of Loeb Haven, Pennsylvania
erected a sawmill at the junction OF
Big and Little Bear Greek, using q
wooden tramway to convey logs tc
MILL They began as Clark and Me
Cullough and later became the Bear
Creek Lumber company.
In 1898 Walter S. Taylor built a
large band mill at Friendsville and
about twenty miles of narrow-gauge
railroad up Big Bear Greek over
Negro Mountain and across Meadow
Mountain almost to Swanton, trans
porting about one and a half million
feet of logs yearly for approximately
six years. Clark and Mccullough re-
moved the hardwood, and the Mea-
dow Mountain Company the spruce on
the same railroad The road was
taken up to Engle's Mill and then
taken over by David and Jacob Stat
Ter, of Johnstown, Pennsylvania
known as Johnstown Planning Mill
Company, who operated a mill at
Friendsville and the North Branch of
Bear Creek railroad for about -four
years.
At the same time the Garter
Brothers, known as the Lock Haven
Lumber Company, operated the
South Branch railroad with mill at
Friendsville. The railroad was taken
up entirely. j. w. Mccullough
George D. Browning, and w. w
Savage also used this same railroad
in a numbering operation extending
from Rock Lick to the Upper reaches
of the South Branch of Bear Greek
in the Weller's Flour Mill area.

Invents Wind Turbine
To Generate Electricity

Announcement of the invention Of
a wind turbine to generate electric
energy, by Garrett countian, was
made this week The inventor is w.
II. Rudisill, Of Philadelphia, formerly
Of Mt. Lake Park, an electric en-
gineer, we'll known in the power gen
GRAFTON field
The invention is declared to be SO
low in construction cost and high in
efficiency that it offers unlimited sup
plies of electric energy at cost
lower than can be produced from any
fuel burning plant.
The announcement Of the invention
comes at a time when there is bill
before Congress to authorize the
building of wind driven electric
generating unit to demonstrate the
possibilities Of such generation and
for the practical purpose of providing
needed energy for the Bureau Of Rec
lamation.
Nh Rudisill has long been of the
opinion that wind is an unlimited re-
source which is going to waste, whose
use, unlike fuel burned, does not di-
minish the supply Of energy that will
be available to posterity. Extensive
studies prepared for and published by
the Federal Power Commission, made
by Percy Thomas, electrical engineer,
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1951-09-06

cost of power from other sources has
been cheap and dependable and the
possibilities Of wind power have been
neglected.
The inventor has published two
pamphlets, one entitled Electricity
from Wind Power, a practical pro-
posal which merits investigation" and
Civilization of Wind Energy for
Large Scale Generation of Electric
Power by the Deflector Wind Tur-
bine."
The advantages of the invention
are pointed out in these pamphlets.
Just what the results will be in the
future are still an unknown quantity.
Mr.. Rudisill is a son of L. A. Rudi-
sill, editor and owner Of the Mountain
Democrat, many years ago. He is the
father Of Mrs. w. E. Dawson, of Oak
land.

BRICK INDUSTRY

A brief attempt at brick-burning
was made near Accident in the 1905.
The kiln was located below Walter
Haenftlings home and almost direct
ly across from Lloyd Alexander's
home. The fire clay was mined locally.
The project was undertaken specif-
cally for the purpose of providing
bricks for the English Lutheran
Church in Accident. The bricks are
in evidence in this church structure.

FLOUR MILLS

Engle's Mill was built in 1885 by
Samuel Engle, then owner of the
farm located on Bear Greek near the
present site of the State Fish Hatch
cry. At that time there were seven
families-Engles and Swalps-living
in log cabins. One cabin was used as
a church and school. About 1868 a
large plank house was built to be used
as a dwelling, store, and wayside
inn, as the Bittinger-A Accident High
way was a main thoroughfare The
graveyard nearby showed twelve
members of these families were
buried there
In 1889 the property was acquired
by Samuel A. Miller, who lived there
until his death in 1928.
After the flour mill was in oper-
alton, German man and wife, Henry
and Caroline Kaese, operated the mill
for Mr.. Engle and also helped to
clear a farm. Henry Kaese came to
Accident District as skilled miller.
-'At'P4I ~ up was maui III a DIlllll-
tive way. The elder Mr.. Kaese once
told Mr.. Ralph Miller that he began
in America by working twelve hours
day on the farm and six hours a
day more in the flour mill at the rate
of six dollars per month.
Engle's Mill was operated last by
Silas Miller, who operated it until
Approximately the time of the death
of his father, and has since been
destroyed.
During the SOS a second flour mill
was erected just below the site of
Engle's Mill on Big Bear Creek This
mill was owned and operated by the
elder Henry Kaese until his death,
then by his son, Henry, until his
death and is still in operation.
The exact date of the building of
Weller's Flour Mill is obscure, but
we do know that it was built by Jere-
miah burst and man named Meese.
This mill was located on the South
Branch of Bear Greek about a half
mile below where U. S. Route PIC
crosses this stream. In recent years
Sisters sawmill has been operating
near the former site of Wellers Mill.
Mr.. Weller, who owned the prop
erty and had The mill built was the
grandfather Of Harry, Joe, and Wal
ter Collier, and gave the mill its
name. Peter Reitz and Joe CARRIER
were among those who operated the
mill. Weller's Mill was closed about
1894.
