Steam Laundry To Open

Event date: Oct 4, 1872

Brattleboro is to have a steam laundry. Mr. L. F. Pettee is engaged in fitting up a small building owned by J. Estey & Co., on South Main street, next north of Vinton’s machine shop, for this purpose, and will have it completed about the middle of the month. The washing, drying, and ironing apparatuses are of the latest and most approved pattern, and he expects to be able to do work about as cheap and quite as well and can be done by hand.
