TEXTMr. Thomas M. Cox was the first man who opened a retail hat store on Market Street, Newark, more than twenty years ago. In 1866 young Albert Babcock, a native of Middlesex County, N. J., came to Newark to enter Mr. Cox's store in the capacity of a clerk. Here he remained up to the death of Mr. Cox, in 1873, and in January, 1874, Mr. Babcock became the proprietor of the store. A young and active business man, he infused new life into the business, and enlarged and extended his facilities to meet the demands upon him. Now he has a beautiful store, finely fitted, 15x70 feet in size, with inclosed cases, ample shelf room, plate-glass windows, high ceiling, plenty of light, gas, water, etc. The stock is complete in every detail, including fine silk hats, which are also made to order at short notice and guaranteed as to quality and fit. In felt and straw goods his stock is unexcelled. Hats and caps of all kinds, sizes and styles are provided to suit all classes and at popular prices. The trade comes from city and country, and is always good, while Babcock, The Hatter, enjoys an enviable reputation, both at home and abroad, as to the character of his goods.
