XI Miscellaneous Town Subjects Manufactures The value of the water-power afforded by the Ware River was recognized at an early date, the river dropping seventy feet in less than a quarter of a mile; but with the exception of saw and grist mills already described, there was no utilization of the power until after 1813, when Alpheus Demond and Col. Thomas Denny purchased the Magoon property, consisting of some 400 acres of land, for $4,500. They built a new dam above where the lower stone bridge now stands, repaired the saw-mill and grist-mill, started two carding machines, and a small plant for making machinery. The machine shop stood just above the bridge on the north side of the river. The carders were intended to supply merely a local need. Colonel Denny died in 1814, and the business was not pushed. Early in the year 1821 the entire property was purchased by Holbrook and Dexter of Boston for $15,000, and a company formed in which a number of wealthy and influential Boston men were interested. In 1823 the Ware Manufacturing Co. was incorporated with a capital of $600,000. Gardner Green was president. John Tappan, Samuel Hubbard and S. V. S. Wilder were among the directors. The company at once erected a woollen mill on the south side of the river, a part of which is still standing, by far the oldest of the factory buildings in Ware. In 1824 the Company branched out and built a large mill, 271 feet long, a little farther up the river, taking its power from the upper falls. Great expense was involved in making the water-power available, as a large amount of excavation through the solid rock was necessary, and the Company failed within a few years. In the "Gazetteer of Massachusetts " published in 1828 by Jeremiah Spofford there are...

Download or read book Ware written by Warren Bacon and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1996-11 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1716, Harvard-educated minister John Read purchased the larger part of what was to become the town of Ware, Massachusetts, and named it "The Manour of Peace." The manour's greatest asset was its river, which first provided fish for Indians and other early settlers and later fueled the town's great nineteenthcentury mills. Ware, compiled by Warren Bacon and Claudia Chicklas, chronicles the history of the town from the latter half of the nineteenth century to the 1970s, focusing on the people of the community and the contributions they made to its development. From leaders of industry and society to barefoot children in a rural school; from clergymen to high school athletes and the major-league Ware native who invented the curve ball, Ware offers vintage images and important historical information about the town's past.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Directory and Handbook of the Town of Ware, Massachusetts: With Two Maps Much of the labor of preparation and compilation was done under great difficulties, owing to the lack' of street names, street numbers and some system of designating the roads. The town should officially number its houses and building lots, name or number its roads, put up street signs at every corner, revise its guide-board service and leave nothing arbitrary as to locations. So the Columbian Edition goes forth, with its praiseworthy features and its faults, to tell the Story of Today to all who peruse its pages.
