The Warrick Glass Works Resold.

 

The old Warrick Glass Works and other property, on the estate at Glassboro, which was purchased by Mr. Brookfield, of Brooklyn, has now been resold to the Whitney glass works firm, who operate the large works in that town. The property was seized by Sheriff Packer of Gloucester county, on an execution secured by a Philadelphia firm, and was advertised to be sold at Sheriff's sale. The property, however, was purchased by Mr. Brookfield at private sale, and it was announced that he contemplated extensive improvements to the property and putting the works to blast in September next. The new purchasers, it is understood, will make the necessary repairs and improvements and start up the factory chiefly for flint ware. — Bridgeton News.
