WORK STARTED.
Foundation for the New Factory is Tn
der Way-One Of the 'sSnake Rocks
Destroyed.


Destroyed.
|. N. Weaver who has the contract
for the foundation of the new glass
factory has started to work on it.
The weather held the men back for
some days but they have started on it
now. They will not allow any grass
to grow under their feet and will finish
their part Of the work as fast as they
can.
The stone for the foundation came
from the Ollie Hill and formed a part
of the famous "Snake Rocks" The
largest of this group of rocks has been
dislodged from its position and rolled
down the hill. Permission was OBJ
tanned from the railroad company who
were anxious to get the frowning men,
ace out of the way and the rock was
blown from it's resting place with
dynamite and sent crashing down the
hill.
The ledge of stone from which the
rock was taken forms very fine build
ing stone and it will be used for the
foundation of the new factory.
