GULF' IS CORRECT
To the Bdltor of The Recorder:—
I feel greatly disappointed, and I
might say disgusted, when passing the
stone erected on Washington's Old
Camping Grounds to see that the m
Seiiptlon contains the word "Cnlph."
The fact that the stone hnllt in the Old
(inlf Mills hears the letters (1-u-l-f Is
SUfltdenl proof that such is the correct
spelling. The mill was bull! in IT IT
loin- before those who are attempting
to change the name were horn and at
that time no oilier method of spelling
the word was known The gulf like
stream which winds through that neigh
hot-hood Is what the mill derived its
name from So the geographical sit-uation
together with the date of the old
mill stone Is what 1 hase my reasons
upon and I think thai "styiisir' Amer-icana
who Insist on spelling It
C.-u-l p-h" will llnd it difficult to llnd
a reason for their indiscrelion.
