Grand Rapids Herald June 23, 1900
Ionia, Mich., June 22. - The wagon works will be rebuilt at once. It is expected
to have the kilns and stock buildings ready for use in thirty days. In the
meantime work will be continued in factory, finishing up the wagons in process.
Mears, Rumsey and Bible have been much touched by the voluntary tender of aid by
their competitors in trade. The hardest problem in the situation was the
destruction of the entire stock of dried lumber and material absolutely
essential to keep the plant going. The Harrison Wagon Company of Grand Rapids
and two or three other large at once telegraphed offers to furnish portions of
the stock, which could only be done to their disadvantage.
