The plant consisted of a belt driven generator using a steam traction engine as power, and the equipment was located in the old brick and weatherboard building known as the "Ebersole Building," which stood immediately on the West bank of the Conococheague Creek on the South side of Lincoln Way West, and which has been demolishd by the Western Maryland Railway Company. This was the first electric plant that was ever operated in Chambersburg, and certainly could not have stayed in business very long. Some of the citizens of Chambersburg remember distinctly seeing these electric lamps suspended above the streets, and at that time were impressed with the fact that they did not blow out when the wind blew.
In the year 1883 there was constructed, in the shops of the Cumber- land Valley Railroad Company, a portable electric light plant which con- sisted of boiler, steam engine, and one arc lamp generator with a capacity of fifteen 2,000 candle-power open arc lamps. This car operated success- fully under the supervision of Charles S. Hull from the very beginning, and in 1884 lighted arc lamps around the Public Square for the Centen- nial, and this same year lighted the grounds for a baseball game which was played at night. This game was played in a field bounded on the North by Falling Spring Creek, on the East by what is now North Fourth Street, on the South by what is now East King Street, and on the west by what is now Kennedy Street.
In 1889 this portable electric light plant was rebuilt, under the super- vision of Mr. Hull, for a capacity of forty 2,000 candle-power open arc lamps. This plant was frequently used for the lighting of important construction work along the Cumberland Valley Railroad, as well as the lighting of serious wrecks. It was also used for the lighting of the Granger's Picnic Ground at Williams Grove, and many of us recall the lighting of Mt. Alto Park Grounds. Mr. Hull was a mechanical genius, and one of the beautiful things he created, with this car and an arc lamp, was a fountain which sprayed steam of different colors up above the car roof. Mr. Charles S. Hull will be remembered as a kindly old gentleman, and one of the first to take up seriously the possibility of electric light- ing in this section.

MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT - 1944
On November 29, 1889, after a vote had been taken by the citizens of Chambersburg to increase the indebtedness of the Borough by an amount not exceeding $10,000.00 for the purpose of installing an Electric Light Plant to light the streets of the Borough, a contract was placed for the necessary electrical equipment with the Thompson-Houston Electric Light Company at a price of $9,797.50. This plant was installed solely for furnishing lighting for the streets of town. The plant was operated from dark in the evening until twelve o'clock midnight, except on moon- light nights when it was not operated at all.
In 1893, the Borough went into the commercial phase of furnishing current to consumers. It was a far step from this first plant to the- present up-to-date efficient plant, and the citizens of Chambersburg are certainly to be congratulated on having had sufficient intelligence to keep this valuable utility for their very own.

During the year 1944, the peak load on the Electric Light Plant reached 4,550 kilo-watts, which involved the operation of two 2,500 Kilo- Watt Turbine Generators. The total generated in kilo-watt hours during the year was 20,491,873 kilo-watt hours, or approximately 2% decrease in kilo-watt hours generated during the year 1943.
The total cash and credits in this Department for 1944 were $426,- 197.12, and the total operating and non-operating expenses were $206,- 241.06, including $37,767.33 for depreciation, leaving a total gross profit of $219,956.06.
Beginning with January 1, 1933, a Standard Public Utilities Account- ing and Bookkeeping System was installed for this Department, which involved the making of an appraisal. The Reproduction Value New, less accrued depreciation as of December 31, 1944, was $601,831.81.
