Context

Country: Canada
State/Province: British Columbia
Period: Used in 1980.
Canada: From Mill No. 4 at Chemainus, B.C.. Built in 1925 by the Victoria Lumber & Mfg. Co., Mill No. 4 was bought c. 1944 by H.R. MacMillan, and operated as a MacMillan business (becoming, after 1951, MacMillan Bloedel) until 1982, when it was closed and dismantled. In 1984 a new and modern mill was built in Chemainus: as of 2001, it was still in operation.
Function: Used to document activities performed each day.
Technical: Large-format book provided opportunity for staff (presumably designated) to record tasks performed during each shift in 1980. Handwritten entries are informal and irregular: many pages are blank.
Area Notes: Unknown
