Practically all that was left OF
Harrisville, n. j., which at one time
was a thriving and active commun-
ity, with a paper manufacturing
plant as the industry around which
the village was built, was destroyed
by a fire of unknown origin on Sun
day night. The fire consumed the
mill property, the general store
building, two large houses and num-
erous small buildings surrounding
them. Thirty or 40 years ago Har-
risville was an active place and the
paper mill was then in full operation
under the ownership of the Harris
family, for whom the place was
named.
