   It was a food mill, and did a roaring trade. They used to grind white poplar trees and make flour of them. They used to sell the fire seeds at one penny per bushel.

   When it was broken down a man named Hanly a contractor came out from Drogheda, and bought all the things that were in it. It was not steam it was worked by but by water from a little river called the Mill rise which is still there. The poor people of Duleek missed the mill when they stopped because they were getting work and fire seeds. All the men that worked at Behan's mill were only getting 9 shillings a week.

There was a waterfall beside this wheel, and the weight of the water falling on the wheel would make it go round. This wheel would then set all the machinery inside working. Flour, and wheaten meal used to be made in the mill.
