the info signs at Landrus, pt. 1

This is one of three signs/monuments located at Landrus. This one is located just east of the main Landrus monument, on Landrus Rd., and is fairly visible from the road because the grass is maintained here. It reads:

LANDRUS 1880 - 1914

Home of the first electrified mine in the world and in it's heyday, it had:

1 company store, 1 post office, 1 school, 2 churches, 1 sawmill and 62 homes.

Peaked in 1899.
