Their main hangout was the rear of this old store on the comer now occupied by Maurice Jensens store and) the postoffice. George Millers brother Joe was in the Huntington posse which chased and Elza (Lay after the Gate payroll holdup Cassidy Castle 1887. Joe was riding the littie racing mare, Pigeon, which was shot by the Castle Dale posse during the fight in Buokhom Draw. George Miller built a larger frame building on that comer, then a few years later built the large brick structure which became the Guymon Mercantile Company. That building included the Castle Valley bank which operated for four years. It ended when Mr and Mrs Miller sold all their interests to R. C. Bowen in 1918. It was the only bank in Utah that ever liquidated voluntarily and 11 itokholders 100 paid off per cent. George Miller and his wife, Mina, were Huntington postmasters for nearly 20 years, from 1898 to 1918. From the beginning of his first business ventures soon after coming to Huntington, he took a foremost part in some of the most important enterprises in the region. He was associated in the sawmill business with Joseph E. Johnson who got out the logs, and Chris Miller of Lawrence, who ran the sawmill in Mill Canyon, George Miller handling the sales. Latei he was in the same enterprise with John F. Monsen, now of Salt Lake City, and Roy Strong. He was secretary of a company headed by State Representative Joseph E. Johnson and J. W. Powell to develop Buck-hor- n Flat as an irrigation project. Powell was the old and Desert Lake pioneer iwho built Buckhom reservoir. George Miller was also associated with John F. Monsen in building the large Huntington creamery which operated on Huntington creek for several years, collecting cream from all over Emery County, and in operating an extensive business which they owned jointly on the old Cedar Creek ranch near Mohr-lanMiller likewise brought in machinery to help build the Huntington reservoir which he largely financed. About 1904, Mr Miller was elected to the state legislature as a Republican, defeating A. E. Wall, a former Huntington man who had been elected county assessor and later served for marly years in the Emery Stake Freddency. Mr Miller April 2, Wil-sonvi- lle sheep-sheari- ng d. (E) G3SQ10IL afterwards became a Democrat and on that ticket was elected again to the State House of from Carbon Representatives County in 1930. Two years later he was elected State Senator and served four years in which he became prominent as chairman of the investigating committee on government units in reorganizing the state government. After serving as attorney for the State House of .Representatives in the ensuing two years, he was elected State Senator again in Q940 and served for several years as one of the most influential state legislators. On retiring from the State Senate he became a member of the advisory coun cil of the state highway engineering department and had much to do with state highway planning projects. On leaving Huntington in 1917, George Miller became Utah field director for the American Red Cross, and Mrs Miller had charge of State jRed Cross headquarters at Salt Lake City during the busy days of the First World War. A few years later they moved to Price and established a prosperous shoe store. From that activity they established the Park Dale Townsite Company which built up nearly all of the modern northeast section of Price around Price City Park and Carbon College, and the hospital. These widespread activities have made George M. Miller not only a prominent citizen of Huntington, but one of the most notable community builders in the history of Eastern Utah. He and Mrs Miller have a son and a daughter, both living in New York City, where they frequently visit.
