(a, top) The two column article is attributed by Jellett to the Ambler Gazette in Sept. 1906. The article is entitled "Local History Sketch". The author recounts the history of the Piper House and mill, located a half-mile northwest from the Wissahickon Pike, where it passes by St. Joseph's convent, the house and mill stand - the mill being no longer in operation. The author mentions George Thomas, the Streeper family and Henry Piper as owners.
(b, bottom) Jellett's note is titled "Pyer Mill". Unfortunately, it cannot be deciphered sufficiently enough to describe the contents.Collection
