 George c. Moore, president and
 treasurer of the company, purchased
 the plant of the defunct Westerly
 Narrow Fabric company. and trans ferred his business from Worcester to
 Westerly. When MT. Moore, a
 stranger, appeared before the town
 council, and asked for the exemption
 from taxation for the balance of the
 period that was granted the Westerly Narrow Fabric company, he made no
 glowing, encouraging announcement of
 what his concern might be an ad-
 dition to the manufacturing life of the
 town. He merely told, the council
 that he had purchased the Beach
 street plant and was to remove his
 industry. He said he was unable to sit
 it his office and touch the button to
 start up the machinery in a fully
 equipped manufacturing concern. He felt certain, however. that the trans fer would mean an increase in his business or he would not make the change. By persistence and hard work on the part of himself, his sons, and faithful employees he hoped to build up an industry that would be of ma terial interest to the town and to those who invested in tho undertaking.
 The result is apparent not only in the enlargement of the plant, but by the erection of two beautiful residences occupied by the Moores adjacent to the factory property.
