"Buswell Lumber & Manufacturing Co.
"Company operations were based out of a village called Buswell, which was located on Papoose Lake, on the end of a Milwaukee branch that stretches west from Boulder Jct. Operations began in 1905 and ended in 1910 when the Buswell mill burned. The Milwaukee Road line from Boulder Jct. to Buswell remained in operation until 1919 serving various other logging interests."
