Several months ago this paper predicted a big new hotel for Chadbourn. Nothing was at that time being given out relative to the matter but rumors were strong enough to justify the prediction.
It is understood now the matter has been definitely settled and that the work of tearing down the old Brown Mercantile wooden store building will commence immediately and that a handsome 23-room brick structure will replace it just as soon as the work can be done.
Since the Brown hotel was burned in Chatbourn about three years ago the town has been greatly in need of better hotel facilities. The traveling public will learn with satisfaction that a new hotel at Chadbourne will soon be a reality.
