week to start the work of building a
large brick plant just across the river
and adjoining the plant that begins oper-
alton today. Mr. Sewell brought with him
a car load of machinery and will lose no
time in getting the factory up and in
operation. 1t was not generally known
that Gadsden was to have two brick
plants, and the purchase of the lands over

that of the Gadsden Brick company.
The capacity of the concern will be
about $4,000 brick per day.
