Cornerstone Laid For New CV Firehall
On March 15, 1950 during a brief ceremony the cornerstone was set in place at the new Cumberland Valley Hose Company building. Russell Lerew, company president gave a brief speech witch included the history of the company. A copper box was placed in the stone by Mr. Lerew witch included a history of the company, pictures of the old building and of the proposed new building, a recent issue of The News Chronicle and a roster containing the entire membership of the company.
