Interesting piece of Lancaster city history.

Here’s an interesting theory. Perhaps the most important person in the shaping of Lancaster City was a man by the name of Charles Tillinghast James. Who was he, you ask, and why was he such a big deal? James was an engineer and steam engine evangelist who was the catalyst for Lancaster's exponential growth in the mid-1800s. Across 1840s America, James preached the gospel of steam-powered cotton mills as the answer to economic stagnation. Lancaster became an enthusiastic disciple, building the three Conestoga Steam Cotton Mills on South Prince Street, which directly led to the city's revitalization.
