Lester Christopher Hardsocg (1880 - 1981) was the company manager. Martin Hardsocg, inventor of various mining tools, commenced the manufacture of them at Avery. The place, however, was too small and lacking in facilities for his purpose, which led him to remove to Ottumwa, where the Hardsocg Manufacturing Company was formed and a factory covering considerable ground, lying alongside the Burlington tracks, between McLean and Benton streets, was constructed. At the head of the company always has been Martin Hardsocg, the inventor of many of the devices which it manufactures. Unfortunately the factory had not long been standing before it was leveled to the ground by fire. With no lack of courage, the plant was replaced by a larger and better one, and here about sixty persons are employed in making coal picks, wedges, drills of special design, hand tools, coal shovels, and, in a separate department.
