Dover Gin Burned
Sunday Morning Origin of
Fire Unknown—Rebuild-
ing Begun at Once
—Other Dover
Items
Sunday mcning about five
o'clock our people were aroused
by the dread alarm of fire, to find
the Dover cotton gin in flames.
How the fire started will proba-
bly always be a mystery, but
certain it is there were no signs
of fire when Glenn Lillibridge,
who has managed the ^in this
season, went through the build-
ing a 12 o'clock Saturday night
Mr. Lillibridge sleeps in the
company's office only a short dis-
tance from the plant, and when
he discovered the fire it was be-
yond control.
While the loss of the gin is un-
fortunate for the owners, it will
probably prove a benefit to
Dover, as the company has al-
ready begun the erect'on of a
new an'l better plant, some
twelve or fifteen men arriving
Tuesday evening to commence
busine s.
The new Kin will be a Pratt
Hull cleaner and all the machin-
ery will be strictly up-to-date.
In fact, we are reliably informed
folks in Kansas. (Jus thinl-s
about the greatest thing he is
thankful for this year is, that
his luniber yard didn t burn with
the cotton gin, during hi- ah
sence.
