| TEXT | Mr. Thatcher is a native of the city of Newark, where he has resided for nearly fifty years, and ten years ago he made his start in his present enterprise as agent for factory and mill supplies, making a specialty of lubricating oils. The store and factory occupied is a brick building of three stories, 40x80 feet, the most extensive in the city devoted to this branch of business, all the floors being used in the requirements of trade. The machinery is operated by a steam engine of ten-horse power and fifty skilled hands are employed. The stock carried chiefly consists of mill machinery and supplies, brass valves and brass goods and hardware, valued at 20,000. A large line of trade has beea established, covering a radius of sixty miles, the sales being up to 100,000 per annum. Mr. Thatcher is a first-class business man and was at one time cashier of a New York bank and was also largely interested in oil lands. He originated and founded the Washoe Manufacturing Company, now engaged in the manufacture of tools and picks, etc., the works being built by him. |
