There are many rumors of build
ings that may be erected in Milford
during the year 1912. 1t is ru-
mored that the Torsch Packing Co.
will erect a large packing house,
100 X $50 feet. 1t is said that Mrs.
Lydia Jump will erect a block of
four stores where the buildings
were burned out by the recent fire.
Already the old National Hotel has
been torn out as to its first floor
and this is being transformed into
three stores each about 22xS0
feet. Robert P. Davis will un-
doubtedly erect a handsome brick
residence on Lake avenue opposite
the handsome home of DR.. Frank
L. Grier. The residence of George
D. Truitt is about finished, and it is
highly probable that there will be
several quite pretentious residences
loom up during the season on the
Hazard lots on South Walnut
