TEXTIn 1850 Mr. Ledwith established his present enterprise, succeeding to the business that had been founded by M. L. Ward & Co. (his predecessors) in 1828, and the trade has had now a continuous run of over fifty-four years, a test of its unqualified success. The factory and soap works is a brick building of two stories high and measures 22x160 feet in extent, all of which are utilized under the trade and are fitted and equipped with all the necessary implements for the requirements of the business. The products of the works are soap and candles for household, laundry, and manufacturers' use, all of the best quality and unadulterated, the soaps for manufacturing purposes being mostly used by woolen mills, silk factories, leather factories, cotton mills, etc: In addition to the manufacture of soap and candles Mr. Ledwith deals in tallow, which he renders on an improved process of his own, which purifies it and gives it a superior quality to other makes. An ample stock is always carried to meet the growing demands on the house and sales are extensive. Attention is given to manufacturers' specialties, soap powder, etc., for the trade.
