Beloved town battle tale of fire and flood aftermath
A fragmented 19th century report describes industrial activity across Pittsburgh area mills and furnaces, with notes on pottery, glass works, and iron production dwindling or restarting. It recounts river flood impacts in Ohio Valley, factory closures, wage changes, and a dramatic street confrontation over owed money ending in a bout of payback.
