CORTLANDT’S NEW TRUCK.
In less than three months Peekskill will be as completely equipped as any town in the country with a fine new duty fire truck, A No. 1, fully equipped with all apparatus for successfully fighting fire.
The new truck committee, appointed for the purpose some months ago, by the Hook and Ladder company, after patient and thorough investigation of many different kinds of trucks, in many different sections of the country, aided and assisted by the fire committee of the board of trustees, decided in favor of the new improved steel frame truck manufactured by the Gleason & Bailey Manufacturing Co., of Seneca Falls, N. Y., and at the meeting of the board of trustees on Tuesday evening last, the contract was awarded to that company.
