Veteran Buys Historic Mill Hollinshead Brothers grist mill at Kinghorn, a hamlet west of King City, has changed owners for the first time in 50 years. Richard Pring, a World War II veteran, has purchased the half- acre property, which includes the mill and house. During hte evening final plans for the Bake Sale to be held at Jefferson School, on Saturday, May 15, from 2 to 4 pm. were completed. Even at that, busy hands were not idle and some of the ladies wound wool which was later given out to be made up into useful articles for the ba- zaar, while others worked on quilt patterns. The mill was started by the late Eli Hollinshead in 1904 when grinding was done by gas gener- ated from a coal furnace. Ernest Hollinshead, 72, began working in his father's mill, 42 years ago. His brother, Albert, 69, has work- thei‘e since ’21. They became own- ers of the mill on their father's death about_20 years ago. The building was erected as a hotel more than a century ago. Later it was converted into a double house. Most of the exter- ior appearance of the landmark has been retained. The old 13- inch p‘me floors, hewn from a neighboring forest, are still in good shape. Lumber at that time was bought at $4 per 1.000 feet, without knots. and $2.50 ifjhere were knots in the wood. . The neighbors are glad to wel- come the Kidwell’s back to their Buttonville home.
