about a dozen gins were made in a I
year. The working force consisted of
Mr. McCreight and four Negro slaves. I
The gins were 25-saw affairs and I

hjNM. The bales in those days weigh- I
ed aboLt 300 pounds. Both gins and

Tlje saws were cut of metal, somethipjg
like the metal that stove pipes I
are now made of and they were fitted I
to a wooden axle, I
Though the factory was in opera-1
tion for a number of years it was
not a great financial success and Mr.
McCreight Anally closed it up in 1846 I
and joined the Pulmetto regiment and I
served in the Mexican war. Many of
