Old Dutch Mill Torn Down ~ Elva Seely Guyman Collection

This building was torn down in approximately........and was located east of where Beck's Furniture now stands or where Rodger and Jenni's is now located.
Kathy:  I do not  remember this building as the” Dutch  Mill” It was the corner candy store in my day (1929-30) and was owned by the Madsen Brothers.  I’m guessing they sold or rented it to Drug Store Johansen from across the street and his son in law Glen Williams then ran it as a candy, hamburger, and malt operation.  The Madsen brothers , from down Moroni way build a place just north for their saloon as soon a beer drinking was allowed back, about summer 1933, just as Roosevelt promised.  The building also carried a full side wall  ad for , I think,  Levi’s rumored to have been painted by an artist from Fairview.  Lee

1937 Manti Temple Article ~ from the Elva Seely Guyman Collection

Some of the article was cut off when clipped out of the paper.

Construction of New North Ward Church ~ from the Elva Guyman Collection

The cornerstone of this new meeting house is dated 1952. the year construction of the new building was started. Dedication was June 24, 1956

Look to the far right of the photo. Social Hall is still standing.

The building could not be dedicated until it was payed for.  The new church was completely built in 1954.  It was dedicated in 1956.  Many banquets were held to raise money to pay for the building.  Those that remember say, "We ate our way into the new North Ward Church".

Early Mt. Pleasant Main Street

Marlane Harless brought in this picture from her Aunt Elva Guyman's Collection.  The upstairs window of the far right building says "Doctor Cassaday".  Does anyone have any knowledge or history of Doctor Cassaday?  Can you identify the era when this picture was taken? Was it before the automobile?  Was it before the famous Main Street Fire?  We have our ideas, but we would like to hear yours.
