Description
Newspaper clipping from The Mirror in Pilot Point, Texas. It discusses how Pilot Point may be the location for a new paper mill -- Waco and Denton were bidding for it but Pilot Point may be chosen as a compromise. Pilot Point would serve as a good location for the paper mill due to the spring and access to the railroad.
