This photograph was obtained by Roger Gilbert from the Hagley Museum. It
shows the "Elephant Mill" after one of many explosions. Note the huge cast
iron wheels inside that did the grinding of the components of Black Powder.
The corrugated iron siding has blown away, and another photo  shows the men
straightening the panels for re-installation.
