Abstract:

An aluminum plant has been in Badin since 1913. Built mostly by convicts, Badin was crime ridden throughout the early part of the 20th-century. Although many of the shops are now abandoned, old-timers in the town remember when it was still full of life and a dangerous, but fun, place to live.
