Continued from: Seaside Lumber & Manufacturing Company
January 20, 1912: "The sawmill and sash and door mill plant of the defunct Seaside Lumber & Manufacturing Company are to resume operations in about 10 days or two weeks and unless something unforeseen occurs to interfere with the plans of those in charge, will continue in operation for an indefinite period. That was the announcement made today. As has been before published the plant and timber holdings of the company were purchased at the receiver's sale by a syndicate composed of C. G. Palmberg, George Kaboth, Joseph Schamberger, John Waterhouse, John Mattson, A. M. Smith. These gentlemen perfected arrangements today for the organization of a company to be known as the Seaside Door & Lumber Company. This company has leased the sawmill plant, as well as the sash and door factory and it has also purchased from W. F. McGregor about 1,000,000 feet of logs that are lying in the mill boom in the Necanicum River and which had been bought by Mr. McGregor at the sale under a foreclosure of a chattel mortgage held by the now defunct Bank of Seaside.
There is another large quantity of logs near Gearhart, which also belonged at one time to the old Seaside Lumber & Manufacturing Company and while they have not yet been purchased by the newly formed organization, They probably will be acquired by it. These logs will be sufficient to keep the plant running for several weeks, by which time the company probably will have its logging camps in operation. The men who are interested in this company not only have ample capital behind them to operate the mill successfully, but what is fully as important, they possess large tracts of valuable timber land in the Necanicum River district, all of which is directly tributary to Seaside."
