Do you remember?
By JABEZ RANDS
(As part of Clinton's upcoming Centennial next year,
Jobez Rands of Clinton is writing ci weekly column on the
history of the town.)
Do you remember when there were two saw mills running
in Clinton?
In the years 1870 to 1900, Mr. James Fair had a steam
saw mill on the north side of his. flour mill. He did a large
amount of custom work for the good people in this part of
Huron County.
He also saved a considerable amount of money for his
flour mill operation because at that time, most flour was
shipped in wooden barrels and he made his own barrels
right from the logs hauled to the mill.
The properties now occupied by the Brewer's Retail store,
the board of education and the back part of the PUC
property were often covered with logs waiting to go through
the saw mill:
During part of the 1870's and 1880's, Mr. James Walker
owned and operated a steam saw mill on the south side of
Huron Street about 130 feet west of Erie Street on lot 813,
where a' fine frame dwelling is now situated.
We cannot locate, at the present time, an exact account of
how many years this mill was in operation.
