Summary
"About a dozen, or, correctly speaking, fourteen is the total number of grist mills ever erected or kept in operation by its waters. But its saw and flouring mills were a century in advance of its cloth, or wollen and silk mills, its iron mills and factories. For the foundations of the first grist mills were laid almost as soon as the first rude huts of the earliest white settlers in these parts of Penn's Woods had been reared."
