Shown is a certificate for three shares of $100.00 each, issued to I. D. “Irvy” Aurand, on August 2, 1926. The certificate was signed by L. E. Specht, Treasurer and Guy Oldt, President. This plant was very important to the economy of Beavertown during its entire existence. Many vestiges of it still exist both in and out of town.

Answer to Last Month

Several buildings in Beavertown were moved. A couple are the Arthur B. Specht Foundry, the Isabella Steam Tannery, and the building now located at 218 West Walnut Street was once on Market Street.

The front of the foundry is still at 127 S. Center Street. The rear was moved to 241 Sassafras Avenue.

The tannery office was moved across Center Street and is now the house located at 220 S. Center Street.
