Paranormal group says Barber Mill gets ghostly visitors Continued from pg. 1 the other. One of our recorders also picked up a whisper that sounded like `Robert,' which made us wonder if we were seeing the spirit of Robert Barber, one of the brothers who built the mill." Hadfield researched the Barber brothers in depth, and found photos of Robert Barber. Like the man in the window, he too had a beard. "We visited the mill again more recently for an in-depth investigation, and the EVPs were going crazy that night," said Hadfield. "I took 40 photos and the man was in the window in three of them, and another investigator took about the same number, and he showed up in two photos as well." Many of Hadfield's photos also showed possible `orbs', circular light spots in the photos that some experts think may be paranormal activity. Skeptics discount them as dust spots on the camera lens. The questionable part is orbs show up in one photo yet not the next photo, which is taken within seconds. Not only did they find the EVP activity was high, but Hadfield tried to talk to the spirit. "I asked him if he wanted us to help save the mill, and he said `yes' really clearly," said Hadfield. "We also heard a clear `hello' during that session." For those skeptics, Hadfield has a website set up on Facebook, as well as several recordings on YouTube, which can be seen at: http://www.youtube.com/user/ "But most of all, I hope someone can take that property and do something worthwhile with it," said Hadfield. "I don't want to see it destroyed-- and when I say that, I'm really speaking for the dead." The Everlast Group Ltd. has applied to the Town to build a 65-room hotel and retail shops at the site. Everlast is looking at ways to adaptively reuse the buildings of the paper mill in the retail component. The Town is currently awaiting a re-submission of the plan for site plan approval. 3 Independent & Free Press, Tuesday, August 16, 2011 WATER FILL STATION AUGUST SPECIAL GEORGETOWN STORE ONLY 348 Guelph Street $ `Orbs' showing up in a photo.

"After seeing all this activity and talking to the man in the window, our hearts are breaking-- we really want to see the mill saved. "The Barbers built so much around town," continued Hadfield. "I almost feel like Mr. Barber wants people in there, to use the buildings again. We'd love to do a controlled investigation, to bring in some sophisticated equipment and perhaps record the electromagnetic fields in there.
