The HABS/HAER team at the ruins of the Pearle  Cotton Mill in Beverly, Georgia in August, 1980. Photo by Dennis O'Kain "I was the engineering historian for the Russell project in the Summer of 1980. We all lived in Elberton and on a very hot day in August, after the vegetation had been cleared from the ruins of the cotton mill, we posed for this photograph."         -John P. Johnson
