Philo L. Mills

As a young man, he entered the employ of E. S. Jafiray & Company, and after several promotions, became buyer for the lace department.

Mills then moved to England, became a British subject and took charge of all the foreign business of the concern.

A generous local benefactor, he bred prize-winning pedigree cattle, pigs and shire horses.

Game birds, large white Yorkshire pigs and rams were all kept at Home Farm in Landmere.
