North Manchester's New Factory.
W.J. Woolley was at North Manchester yesterday and called on the Hewitt
Bros. to see what they were doing. The Hewitts are the men who wanted a
location in Irondale. Mr. Woolley says the Hewitts have a good factory. As he
saw it a machine shop is 60x150 feet, two stories high and a basement. The paint
shop and erecting room is 60x100 feet, one story. A warehouse is 68x100. Mr.
Woolley says about sixty men find employment at the agricultural implement
works. The company's plan of doing business is winning thus far. They expect to
establish a warehouse in this city [Anderson, IN] before summer opens.
