| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | The business as now carried on by Mr. Rowley for the past two years had been previously founded for five years by his predecessor, and purchased by Mr. Rowley, who has since considerably increased the trade by his large practical experience and correct knowledge of the business. The store occupied is a large brick building 25x50 feet, with basement the same size, used as a workshop and for repairing purposes, etc. The stock carried is a complete one, and comprises a fine selection of stoves and ranges, new and second-hand, of all sizes and grades, of the best and most popular makes, at lowest prices. Tinware, etc., of every description is kept in stock or made to order on shortest notice, and all kinds of repairing promptly done. A considerable trade is done and sales are estimated at the rate of about 12,500 per annum. A number of expert and experienced hands are kept in constant employment and quite a large business is transacted. Mr. Rowley is extensively engaged in the manufacture of patent cement stove-brick, which fits all kinds of stoves, ranges, heaters, and grates. This is found a great family convenience and a household blessing. He takes old stoves in exchange for new ones, and accommodates his trade to the convenience and circumstances of everybody. Buying and selling all classes of stoves and ranges is made a specialty, and all kinds of repairs are done and the work is guaranteed. In addition to the foregoing, Mr. Rowley is connected as patentee with the flexible rubber horse bit, and receives a royalty on its manufacture per Crane & Co., harnessmakers, the sales of which amount to about 20,000 per annum. He is a native of Connecticut, and a thorough business man, and highly esteemed in the community as a sterling citizen. |
