A visit to the Ross Rifle Factory - Neat Read

[stoggie]

I stumbled across this article - gotta love Google. Its a scan of "The Quebec Saturday Budget" from May 26, 1906. It talks about the manufacture of the MkII Ross.

Gabriel Dumont died !? Why did no one tell me ?

Really, really cool read. I love reading old newspapers, they give such an interesting perspective on the time. I was once remodeling a house built in 1911, and found an entire newspaper inside the wall from when it was built. I get a good laugh when they talk about "the Kaiser" and the trouble he's causing in Europe.
