Prouse family moved into Levin sawmill: sons tell of walk into settlement.
It was a bright sunny day following a hard mid-winter frost in the year 1891 when two young lads walked down the railway line through areas of dense bush into the settlement of Levin. Accompanying them was their father, Mr. James Prouse, who, together with his brother, Mr. Richard Prouse, was to establish a sawmill in the large tract of bush they had acquired.
