Gore Lake
LeRoy and Carl Gore, operators of Gore Lake here that was mysteriously dynamited two months ago, said this week that all materials were on hand now for the rebuilding of the dam. Actual construction was to have started this week but the heavy rains over the week end put too much water around the destroyed dam for efficient work.
They expect to start early next week if no more rain falls.
Law enforcement officers have never made any statement relative to progress made in the hunt for the party guilty of exploding the dynamite that wiped out the dam.
