Elmwood Cleansing & Dyeing Works
This business was founded in 1878 by the late Theobald Hegy, who learned it in France. It has grown steadily, and from one little Main street store now has stores in Holyoke, Springfield, Northampton, and Westfield, with branch agencies all over Western Massachusetts. Frank J. Hegy is general manager, and the departments are in charge of his brothers as follows: Dyeing, Theobald A. J. Hegy; dry cleaning, George S. Hegy; steam cleaning and finishing, John B. Hegy. The whole plant is thoroughly modern, allowing of prompt service as well as the most satisfactory results.
