Description

The conveyor in the foreground was used to ship pulp wood from Lincoln to the Brewer Mill in 1915 because the river drive stopped in Lincoln.

A narrow gauge train dumped pulp wood into the mill pond. It was then sent to the wood room to make chips for the pulp mill. At this time the mill was owned by the Eastern Manufacturing Company.
