Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 20, Number 89, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 14 July 1899 — Stone Crusher Here. [ARTICLE]

Stone Crusher Here.

The stone crushing machine heretofore described, and the purchase of which has been pending for some time, arrived Monday afternoon, by the overland route, from Francesville. The purchasers are D. H. Yeoman and Ancil Wood worth. The michine is not a large one, but is very heavy and strongly built and evidently of powerful crushing capacity. It is mounted on wheels which will be a great advantage for use in this locality and an indispensable feature if the rock is to be removed from the river. If 1 his crusher turns out to be as efficient, a machine as it is believed to be, and there is no reason to doubt but that it will, its presence here will be a great benefit in more ways than one, and we believe it will also prove an excellent investment for its enterprising purchasers. The machine is at present stand ing in the lane west of Granville Moody’s residence.
