Herbert Flynn was 18 when he and his brother started working at the mill in 1937. It was good wages at the time, recalled Flynn. I started out making 15 cents an hour which was a pretty good salary back then. Flynn left his job to serve in the U.S. Army during World War II but returned when the war ended and worked until the mill closed in 1950s.
Flynn stayed on and in the ensuing years was promoted to a position as fixer, working on the graveyard shift keeping the machines in working order. It was a good place to work, but talk about hot in the summer, Flynn said. Ive seen some new hires come in there and quit before lunch.
