The immediate output of the Lee foundry will be gray iron castings, but there is a probability that the stove department will be started up later. J. B. Lee who is at the head of the new corporation, is a foundry man of many years experience, and his knowl- edge, combined with his intelligence and energy, assures the success of his new enterprise. M
