On Monday, April 5,.1993, Lucknow Feed Mill Inc., started business at the former Martin
Feed Mill in Lucknow. Qn Saturday; May 29, 1993 the mill -was totally destroyed by fire:
Today we are closing the final chapter in what has been a long milling history in .Lucknow..-
Back in 1858 Eli Stauffer built the first mill in Lucknow on this site. After operating the
businessfor 5 years, he sold it to Walter Treleaven in 1863. The Treleaven family prospered
as millers in.town and it remained in the family up until 1982 when Martin Feed Mill Ltd.
purchased the business from Jacl Treleaven. As many of you were aware the original mill ,
burnt down' in August of 1962. Jack rebuilt the mill in 1963 and with many updates and
improvements was able to manufacture up to 150 tonnes.of feed per day at,the time of the
fire. So the mill and all it stood for will now• become just another piece of history recorded in
the town of Lucknow.
I want to at this time express my sincere thanks to all the customers who not only
supported our efforts to dobusiness over the last year, but those who had supported the
mill while it was in operation in Lucknow. I want to express my appreciation to all of the
'staff for their efforts in what has been a very difficult period. during the last 10 months
since the fire. I also want to thank those businesses who allowed us to continue business
as usual in spite of the fire, and all of the problems we encountered: Finally I want to thank
Stu Reavie, Reeve of Lucknow, for his -efforts in trying as we tried to find a way of saving the
business. I have made many friends in Lucknow and the surrounding community.
Wherever my life leads me from this point on, I will always remember these people and be
thankful to God that I had the opportunity to share this part of my life with them. God
bless you all.
