| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | Works on Twelfth and Lumber streets, Chicago (see cut), are most complete and admirable; it is said, indeed, they have not their equal in the world. They cover an area of about three acres, and include many wonderfully effective machines, such as overhead travelers, power and hand cranes, diamond saws, planers, rubbing beds, lathes, etc., for handling, sawing, dressing, polishing, and turning the different kinds of building stone. The business of the company is the furnishing and erection of cut stone, whether plain, molded, orcarved, for private dwellings, business blocks, churches, courthouses, schools, bridges, and the like, and it makes a specialty also of planed sidewalks. It is the sole agent in the West for several of the most interesting and valuable stones, of which we may mention the red Scotch stone, known as Corsehill, so popular in the Eastern cities, and the celebrated and attractive Brinton green stone of Pennsylvania, already such a favorite in Chicago. The company owns the patents for Young's diamond saws and for other machines used in its business, and has a branch
establishment at Mott Haven, New York City, specially devoted to their manufacture and sale. By reason of abundant capital, extraordinary facilities, and long experience in every part of their business; by promptness, good work, and reasonable charges, the officers of this company feel confident of building up a magnificent business by helping to build up and embellish these magnificent cities of the great West. The officers are Franklin Farrel, President; HughYoung, Secretary and Treasurer; Ferdinand V. Gindele, Manager, and Robert C. Harper, Superintendent. They are exceedingly gratified with the liberal patronage of architects, builders, and the public heretofore accorded them, and are determined to deserve the continuance and increase of the same. |
