Covington Improvement Company

Covington Improvement Company

The Covington Improvement Company was formed to promote the business interests of the Covington area in the late 1890s.   Their main focus was on promoting the iron deposits in the area.   I have transcribed the prospectus for this company and also included pictures included in the prospectus.  I especially found the comments about the unlimited supply of trees interesting.
