- Eureka 1910-1919 - (Part 3 of 12) -

(Continued From Last Week) “In January of 1912 a new ice house was built on the site of an old forgotten ice house west of Eureka and it will hold about a thousand tons of natural ice from Fall River. There is a force of twenty-five men working day and night to get the house full before the weather warms. The ice is reported fourteen inches thick on the river and as clear as a crystal. You may now have your choice of natural or artificial ice.
