NW-Mailing-List Digest, Vol 100, Issue 34

[NW Mailing List]

Since there wasn't an accessible photo with this e-mail I can assure all of you 'Bluefield' Aficionados that there was indeed; a grinding and storage mill higher up the hill; from the then.... N&W shops. It was and I think it still is behind where the three huge water storage and treatment tanks were located. It sat across from my uncles furniture factory. It is visible in Mel Grubb's aerial photos  of the downtown and middle yards area. There was a track that served the mill.

Here's to absent friends and confusion to our enemies.
