A brick building on a lot of land, bordering on the Ware River, was erected for the manufacture of Woolen cloth. It was sold and resold until it was purchased by Edward DENNEY in 1844. He manufactured various kinds of woolen goods, conducting the business with success until about 1867. It was later leased to C.T. DEACON & Co. who soon failed. The factory was destroyed by fire in the winter of 1857-58. At Mr. DENNEY'S death in 1874 the property passed into other hands, meeting with various fortunes. In 1883 the mill was again destroyed by fire and never re-built.
