Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Newport Historical Society, 1922, Vol. 39 The next step was the power water mill, first in a very primitive manner, derived from the Greek water mill. This simple little machine, with its horizontal wheel and devoid of gearing, under the designation of the Norse Mill, sur vives, in some places, to the present day. In the Greek water mill the/ wheel which lay vertically upon or in the water and revolved an upright central shaft standing on a stone in the bed of the stream or in a dry channel to which the water was conveyed by a trough, the upper end of the shaft or spindle passed through the lower of the two querns like grinding stones placed above, but was fixed to the upper stone. Thus the water wheel, the shaft and top stone all revolved together. This arrangement would grind very slowly, as one revolution of the water wheel would of course only produce one revolution of the grinding stone. This mill was generally to be found over the greater part of Europe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Special Bulletin of the Newport Historical Society, Vol. 10: In Memory of Hon. Robert Stilman Franklin, Vice President of the Society, Died October 8th, 1913 The quaint spelling, the contracted words, the use of old forms and letters combined with the dignified language of Scripture and the early poets make a most interesting study and show the visitor to the cemetery how truly "Every stone that we look upon in this repository of past ages is both an entertainment and a monitor." It is the purpose of this article to give the inscriptions that are of interest in themselves, as well as some of those that have a more permanent historical value. In the Ward and Cranston plat now cared for by the Park Commission of the city, are gathered together the monuments of members of these and other prominent early families. A large flat slate slab, with skull and cross bones at the top, records that "Here lyeth interred the Body of Major John Cranston Esq Governor who deceased this life the 12 day of March in the 55 year of his age 1680."
