November 6, 1942: "Officials of the L. H. L. Lumber company estimated today that a fire which destroyed their mill yesterday for the second time in two years did $75,000 damage.
The fuel shed, planer and boiler room alone were saved. The mill had a monthly capacity of 4,500,000 board feet and employed 125 men. The loss was covered partially by insurance, said E. J. Linke and Guy Haynes, operators.
The mill resumed operations in January of this year after having been destroyed by a blaze July 3, 1940.
Linke and Haynes said they planned to rebuild again if priorities could be obtained to replace lost machinery." (Herald and News)
