One page from the serialized 'Chronological Textile Events' column in Posselt's Textile Journal, covering the year 1820. It describes the founding of the Lowell mill site at Pawtucket Falls on the Merrimac by Jackson, Appleton, Moody and Kirk Boott, and includes an engraving of the old mill at Waltham. It also has a table of raw cotton consumed and spindles by state from the Fourth Census, a list of textile patents (power loom, double speeder, Jacquard lace figuring, lace loom improvements, tappet motion, fishing nets), and notes on 1912 US cotton cloth exports.
