The Late R. R. Haynes Of Cliffside
From The Spartanburg Herald,
Jun. 29, 1922
The Cliffside Mills, at Cliffside, recognized as among the greatest gingham
mills of America, is an enterprise, a monument to the ability and the
energy of a native of the very hills upon which the great mill stands.
Within the past week memory of the man, R. R. Haynes, has been awakened
by the dedication of the R. R. Haynes Memorial Building at Cliffside.
A great crowd gathered at Cliffside last Saturday night to pay tribute
of respect to the great pioneer manufacturer of a region. He had not
been dead very long, just a few years and is succeeded by his able
son, who is recognized as capable of meeting the responsibilities of
great enterprises, but his people were eager to make recognition of
his achievements.
