            To the editor: It's a shame to hear that a piece of history 
			(Lincoln's at that) is being left to fade away. I know that things 
			have changed over time, but to let the gateway to the city, a place 
			where, if you wanted a great meal (outside of home, that is), the 
			old Mill was the place… 
			Yet for us 40s-plus kids, the history of Lincoln will always be 
			there, but the faces and places will keep changing. Too bad, in 
			today's world, history is only what you read about and not truly 
			enjoy for the [times] to come. 
			Goodbye, old Mill. Maybe one day someone will leave a rock with 
			your name on it, saying, "Here lies the old Mill. (She served her 
			Lincoln well.)"
