EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image, circa 1737, depicts Samuel Miller, a determined and resilient miller, who found himself in the unfortunate circumstance of having to operate his wood mill single-handedly. The photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the somber reality of Miller's situation, as he stands before his grinding mill, his left hand missing, a grim reminder of the accident that had befallen him. Samuel Miller's story is one of perseverance and adaptation in the face of adversity. Despite the loss of one hand, he refused to let it hinder his livelihood or his commitment to providing for his family and community. With a steely gaze and a determined expression, Miller sets to work, using makeshift tools and innovative methods to manage the intricacies of milling, demonstrating an unwavering spirit and an unyielding work ethic. The photograph, though dated, remains a powerful testament to the human spirit and the indomitable will to overcome adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in the most challenging of circumstances, there is always a way forward, and that the human spirit, when unbroken, can overcome even the most insurmountable of obstacles.
