Established in 1881. In 1888, a boiler lit on fire and exploded after being sprayed by the fire department. 14 bystanders were killed, and the mill was razed. Rebuilt the same year. Operated until 2016 and closed due to being unable to turn a profit. A fire broke out in May 2021 (arson - vandals) - and the remains were demolished in the Fall of 2021.
