HIATT SAWMILL |
Washington County - Gales City
|
April 27, 1899: "D. B. Reasoner, ex-county commissioner, of Middleton, has purchased a half interest in the Hiatt sawmill near Gales City. He will at once build a house on the property and move his family there. D. B. states that the mill has orders ahead which will keep the wheels going all season. As he knows something about the mill business and is an all around good rustler there will be no such word as fail in his new venture." (The Hillsboro Argus)
