The Ryegate Granite Works, which were carried on for a number of years by Rodney F. Carter, who established the business in 1877, were in the spring of 1885 sold to a stock company with a paid in capital of $90,000.00. They have very extensive works at the “Quint place,” so-called, one and a half miles from South Ryegate, on the M.&W.R. R.R. They employ one hundred men, and have just put in a McDonald stone cutting machine, at a cost of $9,000.00. They have a quarry of two hundred acres on Blue Mountain.
