News From Double Trouble, 1911
from the New Jersey Courier 30 Mar 1911
Edward Crabbe on Saturday last let the water off the big mill pond which he partially set out in cranberry vines last summer. He has two hundred barrels of vines which he will now set out on the bottom of the pond. During the winter sand was carted out on the ice and dumped over the muddy spots, and is now in the places where it is wanted to be spread.
The water that was run off the pond was run on the east bog of 200 acres, which was flooded last summer. This will be ready for setting out after another summer under water. When Mr. Crabbe gets through with bog building he will have about 500 acres of vines.
The mill is busy on cedar lumber.
A neat bungalow is being built on the shore of the lake. Some say the builder expects to have a bride to occupy it with him.
