| TEXT | Almost half a century has passed away since Mr. Gordon began business in Newark in 1835. For several years he confined his operations to a small shop, where he did work for the stores of the city. Prior to the Rebellion he opened a large store and did an extensive business in the clothing line during the following years on the principal thoroughfare of the city. Of late years he has been comfortably quarterecl on Academy Street, where he enjoys a substantial patronage, embracing the best classes in the city. His store is 12x40 feet in dimensions, well stocked with cloths, cassimeres, suitings, etc., as well as gents' furnishing goods. Competent workpeople are employed. In cut, fit, and make the productions of this establishment are unrivaled. Mr. Gordon is a native of the city of Newark, and began his career as a clerk in a paint store in New York city at the early age of twelve years. Here he remained until he began his apprenticeship as a tailor and cutter, which was duly served, and afterward he engaged in business, as above stated. |
