Carmichael, Paul Chevallier, Mrs. Amelia Mosher and William Melfattie, totaling ~300,000 pounds. The clips are praised as the county’s best by the Colored Worsted Mill, which has used them for years.

The Stillwater county pool, around 1,000,000 pounds, was consigned to Eisenman Bros. of Boston after buyers declined 33 cents, despite the highest sealed bid at 20 3/4 cents being rejected earlier near Calumet.
