The Third Ellis Mill was an industrial mill located in Monson, Massachusetts. It was constructed in 1908 on the site of the old wooden Reynolds Mill. During its heyday, the two Ellis Mills made upholstery for a number of notable people, including Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom's coronation car and the cars in the White House fleet. However, the company dissolved in 1962 and the building went through several more owners before finally closing in 2001.

“Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff of any degree of fineness; but nevertheless, what you get out depends upon what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat- flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“I heartily wish you, in the plain home-spun style, a great number of happy new years, well employed in forming both your mind and your manners, to be useful and agreeable to yourself, your country, and your friends.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
