CHAPMAN Hornbrook Work was com pleted last week on installation of 2,400 feet of new water line for the Hornbrook Water co. The new section is a feeder line from the reservoir near new Highway 99, connecting with the town line approximately 300 feet below old Highway 99. It is of 4 inch "Spi-weld" steel pipe and replaces the redwood pipe which has been in continuous operation for 53 years, ever since the water company was incorporated in 1904. One of the first customers of the company was the Southern Pacific railroad and, with the exception of a short period of time, have continued to be user from then to the present. The original company was composed of the late David Horn, Davis Earhart, Jim Coyle, Sam Smith and Myron Burkhalter, who laid the pipeline from Rancheria creek, the source of supply, to the reservoir and thence to the town. Move Away All but Horn and Earhart moved away, leaving these two men in control of the company. In 1918, Horn's son, Marshall, bought out the David Horn com pany interest, and in 1930 Mar shall Horn sold his interest to Davis Earhart. Upon the death of Earhart his heirs sold the company in 1913 to Harry Chap man, who installed meters short ly thereafter, and has owned and maintained the line con tinuously since then. The recently completed irrv provements eliminates all of the redwood pipe, and makes the entire system of steel construc tion. About three years ago the first section of steel line was laid, extending from Cottonwood creek bridge up the hill to the end of the present installation. Then two years ago, the section crossing Cottonwood creek was replaced because it was torn out by floods Dec. 21, 1955. It is expected that the new line will provide improved pressure, and uninterrupted service to users. WINS BATTLE Egremont, Mass. HP) Tax Collector Carl H.
