Owing to the area's strong Francophone character, the engraving is in French. It reads "CETTE MEULE QUI DATE DE 1845 ETAIT PRES DE LA RIVIERE SCOTCH. ELLE SERVAIT A MOUDRE LES GRAINS DES GENS DE LA REGION. DON DES CHEVALIERS DE COLOMB ST-ISIDORE ET FOURNIER CONSEIL 6237" That translates (according to (mostly) Google Translate) into:
THIS WHEEL THAT DATES FROM 1845 WAS NEAR THE SCOTCH RIVER. IT SERVED TO DRINK THE GRAINS OF THE PEOPLE OF THE REGION. DON OF KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS ST-ISIDORE AND FOURNIER CONSEIL 6237".
