From Jim Beauchesne at Lawrence Heritage State Park: 2 WHEELS -
"I believe Dave Deas mentioned to you a couple of big wooden wheels that we think should be at the LHC...
these are from a papermaking machinery company named Horne that was in So Lawrence until closing about 15 years ago. Pat Jaysane and I did some dumpster diving... we got a bunch of old ledger books which I think are in your collection. and I got the big wheels for storage, but now our basement is getting very cluttered and we'd like to move 'em. they should survive nicely in your sheds. I believe that technically they are "forms", used to make iron wheels for the machines. Altogether it's a nice remnant of one of Lawrence's non-textile industries."
