Already extensive additions have been made and the capagity of the concern more than doubled: "It is classed among the leading industries of Westerly. 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 Mr. = 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 as 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 | Qustry. He said he was unable to sit | his office and touch the button to | in a fully He it start up the machinery equipped manufacturing concern. i 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 employes he -hoped to build up an industry that would be of ma- | terial interest to the town and to those who invested in the undertaking. The result is apparent not only.in the enlargement of the plant, but the erection of two beautiful residences occupied by the Moores adjacent to the factory property.
