Additional Details:
Sketch by Charles O'Keele of the Wight Grist Mill, an 18th-century mill reproduced on its original site. In the foreground, a man stands with two oxen yoked to a large wooden cart. The mill has a 20-foot undershot water wheel. The back notes that machinery is from the Porter Grist Mill in Hebron, Conn, and that the oldtime burr stones grind whole grains.
