The pump manufacturing and repair department of the [[Woodard Machine Company|Woodard Machine company]], being that part of the business that was acquired from the [[Canton Hughes Pump Company, The|Canton-Hughes Pump company]], has been purchased by the Chalmers Pump & Manufacturing company of Lima.

The company obtained the patents, drawings and records of the old pump company, no equipment going with it, and will succeed to the trade that was kept alive by the Woodard company since it took over the pump plant and business, consisting of much repair work. The Woodard company did not care to operate a pump manufacturing and repair business with its other large machine trade. The Chalmers company, which is a New York corporation, has been much interested in the pump branch of the plant here ever since Receiver W. H. Hughes disposed of the property here to the Woodard company. Transfer of the business to Lima takes no men from here.
