| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | The manufacture of files and rasps takes a leading rank among the several other branches of Newark's trade, and one of the prominent representatives in it is Mr. John Ray, who has been eleven years in the business, having succeeded the former proprietor, who founded the trade in 1843. Files and rasps are re-cut at shortest notice and the work done is warranted. The workshop is a commodious brick, erected specially by Mr. Ray for the manufacture of files, and gives constant employment to thirty-five experienced mechanics. A large and ample stock is carried, consisting of files of every class, and the sales made during the year are extensive, the trade done being mostly in New Jersey and the city of New York. All the work done is hand cut. Mr. Ray is a native of Ireland, and in his boyhood he emigrated to America and served his time to Mr. C. V. Wilson, his predecessor in the business. Long practical experience and knowledge of the lousiness enable him to compete with the best file cutters of the State. |
