TRANSCRIPT

Interview with Lois E. Merritt, Merritt Bros. Basket Factory - She Describes her Father's Trips to the Logging Mills

Yes they were more supervising and getting orders and things like that is my idea. And Dad used to go up and they did too and they used to go up north and they would buy lots of timber up north. And they would supervise them and up north and things like that. To send the logs down. (And where in the north do you remember?) Oh well they had a mill at Katrine. The main mill was Katrine, but they had several mills. They used to go around and prepare the logs to come down.
