These mills were known as pit miUs. Steam power was first applied to mills in 1769, this date being fixed by a reference in a paper^ read before the Royal Society by the Marquis de Cazaux in 1780, stating that eleven years earlier a steam engine had been sent to Jamaica. Steam power did not become common, however, till much later; its introduction into Demerara and Surinam took place in 1815, due to the initiative of a Dutch carpenter, Forster. The first mill with the isosceles triangle combination was made in 1794 by Collinge, an axle-tree maker of Lambeth. ^ A design of this nature was also found amongst Smeatons papers at his death, with the notation that it was.
