Salisbury Post
The Clyde and Newton mills, two of the plants in the chain of the Mecklenburg Mills Company, will resume operation at an early day. Robert H. Knox, native of Salisbury and son of the late Robert Knox of this city, is to be vice president and general manager. The mills will be known as the Clyde Mills. A Newton Dispatch says of the announcement that these plants are to start up again:
“The announcement that the mills will soon begin operation again injected new life in the town of Newton, and everybody has co-operative feeling and a determination to stand solidly behind the new officers of whom H. W. Anderson of Philadelphia is president; R. B. Knox of Newton is vice-president and general manager; George Benner of Philadelphia is secretary and treasurer; W. E. Bacon, for many years superintendent of both mills before they were forced to shut down on account of financial difficulties, will again resume the active superintendency.
