The ideas and purposes of these gentlemen were very grand, and they began an operation on the most entensive [sic. intensive? extensive?] scale. Their purpose was to establish a general manufacturing town, and laid out the tract in graded streets with dressed curbed stones, built substantial tenements, and erected a large Cotton Mill, Machine Shop, Grist Mill, Foundry and other buildings."
