Industrial growth and bridge plans stir Hamilton progress

A Cincinnati businessman buys land to erect a large mill and brick factory on Hydrant near the railroad, aiming to employ about thirty men and produce mill saws. A grand railroad bridge, a long stone pierse high water mark, is planned for Indianapolis traffic, with new churches and business rooms rising. Hamilton’s prosperity hinges on water power and proximity to Cincinnati as construction rapidly expands.
