No Glass Works For Warren As Glass-Works Scheme Fails
Warren’s Board of Trade received notice last Monday that Messrs Storey and Slease withdraw from the glass-works project, canceling plans for a new plant this spring. Homer’s Browns ville visit report was unfavourable to promoters, and local backers withdrew. Yet business boosters press on with other factories, avoiding conflict until checks show everything is in order. Brownsville locals misread the situation but were left behind.
