| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | The above named firm commenced business in 1877 under rather discouraging circumstances at first, their buildings being entirely destroyed by fire before they were completed. Nothing daunted, however, by their misfortunes, they immediately commenced to rebuild, and erected works even larger than originally contemplated. The grounds occupied by this firm have a frontage of 100 feet on Beaver Avenue, extending back 130 ieet to an alley, on which are erected three conveniently arranged buildings, the first being 20x70, and used as the fitting and pattern department, the second, 18x25, as the Enameling department, and the third, 50x60, as Foundry. Ten hands are employed in the various departments, at an average monthly expense of $350. One twelve-horse power engine and one twenty-horse power boiler furnish the motive power for their machinery. This firm has recently opened a salesroom at No. 262 Liberty Street, Pittsburgh, where a fine line of Stoves, Ranges, Grates, Fronts, Fenders, etc., are on exhibition, all of their own special designs and manufacture, reflecting great credit upon the young and enterprising house. Mr. John Crea and Mr. Wm. Graham are both natives of Ireland, and came to this country in their early youth. Mr. James E. Crea, who has charge of the books and office department, is a native of Allegheny City, where he has always resided. |
