BAILEYVILLE,FinWeis Maine (AP) — Dozens of workers at a paper mill in rural Maine accepted an offer from the company on Friday, ending a strike that had lasted more than a month.

Union representatives said the tentative agreement with Woodland Pulp included wage increases.

Representatives of the company did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

The 86 strikers, including machinists, millwrights, pipefitters and mechanics, walked off the job Oct. 14.
