| TEXT | This establishment dates back to 1812, when Moses Kinsey, Sr., opened a small shop in Newark wherein to do repairing to shot-guns, blunderbusses, flint-locks, and the like, and for the sale of fowling-pieces and ammunition. He built up a good trade in that line and gradually increased his facilities and made additions to his stock as the business would warrant. Of one thing it is certain - that he did his work intelligently and well, for he enjoyed a reputation far and wide for the reliable character of the workmanship as well as the ingenuity displayed. Little wonder is it that the son should be an expert after thorough schooling in his father's shop. In 1852 Moses Kinsey, Jr., succeeded to the business, and has ever since maintained the high reputation of this house and even improved upon it. He now carries one of the most complete assortments of guns and pistols, ammunition, and sporting goods generally to be found in the State, and does repairing in the most careful and workmanlike manner. Three hands are kept constantly employed and the patronage comes from throughout this entire section, while orders are shipped to all parts of the country. His store is 20x40 feet in dimensions, and the workshop adjoins the same in the rear. Mr. Kinsey is the patentee and manufacturer of "Kinsey's Patent Eureka Club Skate", patented April 19th, 1881, and he sells them both wholesale and retail. That they are the most complete skate in use there is no denying, and the fact is apparent that the best skaters use them in preference to any other make. Popular prices prevail. Mr. Kinsey is a native Jerseyman and has resided here over thirty years. He is highly esteemed as a business man and citizen, pays strict attention to business, and is entirely reliable in all his dealings. It is with pleasure we commend his house to the general public as being a representative one in its line of business. |
