I was looking for information on the Garrattsville Hammer Factory after buying a 170 price list on eBay and ran onto this 6 part series, which was "Witten[sic] for the Chronicle." You can read the articles by opening the PDFs below. I have uploaded the entire Chronicle pages since so many people seem to enjoy seeing other content on the page.
Ever have trouble spelling Garrattsville? Many people do, including the printer of this price list for Manure and Hay Forks and Hammers manufactured in Garrattsville. The printer spelled Garrattsville with only one T, but the postmaster managed to get it correct noting that the letter was being mailed on Dec. 26.
