[GreenKeys] [Bulk] Telegrapher's "Mill"

[Lee Mushel]

Gentlemen,

What was the time that caps only machines were used and called "mills?"   I 
know that in amateur radio in the mid 50s any typewriter was referred to as 
a "mill."   I am still hoping that someone comes up with the source of the 
word.
