The Bartlett Mill
The Bartlett mill has carried on a business of great im-
portance to the people of this and surrounding towns for four
generations. Ozias Bartlett built the mill and had only a few
machines for making of rolls. His son, Seldman, increased
the business adding the weaving of all wool casimeres and Her-
bert, his son, took the mill in 1891 and changed the business to
that of the manufacture of yarn. The mill is now owned and
operated by Harry Bartlett, who took the mill when only six-
teen years of age and does a business throughout the central
part of the State. The reputation of the work put out by this
mill has always been the best and the business has had a con-
tinous growth since its beginning.
