| TEXT | Forty years ago this eminent and extensive representative firm laid the foundation of their present enterprise and are now one of the leading houses engaged in their line of the manufacturing industries of Newark. The extensive premises occupied comprise a large three-story brick building, containing machine shop, 75x100 feet; blacksmith shop, 25x30 feet; foundry, 75x80 feet, and pattern shop on top floor. The establishment is fitted with the best machinery, designed by the firm for the requirements of tlie trade, which is operated by a steam engine of fifty-horse power, and there are one hundred skilled hands in the various departments. The capacity of the foundry is five tons of metal for castings per day. The products of the works are steam-engines, smelting furnaces, elevators, transfer presses, which are chiefly shipped to England and Mexico; embossing machines, shafting, gearing, pulleys, machinery for the manufacture of enameled cloths, for leather manufacturers, jewelers, saw-mills, grist mills, and especially for puper mills. An immense trade is done over the United States and in Europe, the sales being estimated at $150,000 per annum. The firm are sole manufacturers of Kingsland's patent beating engine, chilled iron rolls, etc. The individual members of the firm are Cyrus Currier, a native of Massachusetts, who in 1835 went to work at machinery and is a self-made man, and his sons, Osceola and Cyrus C, both being natives of New Jersey. All are thorough, experienced and practical machinists, having devoted their lives to the development of the business, and are now among the most prominent of Newark's citizens. |
