| Historic narrative: | |||||
| Lewis Smith owned this building which was a combination of foundry, machine shop and sawmill. Mr. Smith supplied castings of every kind of iron tool including plow points and land roller ends. Clarence T Woods recalled in his memoir that he enjoyed as a boy watching the hot metal flow into the molds and the saw mill cut up huge logs into lumber. | |||||
