| TEXT | A largely patronized stove store and one popular with all classes of trade is that of James L. Gurney,at No. 115 Market Street. In 1878 it was established and has continued to do a successful trade. The store is 20x50 feet in size, and here is displayed a large variety of stoves for parlor, office, chamber, and kitchen use, with ranges, hot-air furnaces, etc. Mr. Gurney is the agent for the sale of Sheppard & Co.'s Excelsior Goods. Tinware of all kinds is in stock, as well as plumbing materials, gas fixtures, etc. His specialty is ventilating buildings. The manufactory adjoins the main store, is 20x35 feet, and is well supplied with the best of tools and machinery for the work. Plumbing is promptly and carefully done in all its branches and sewer connections are made. Two floors and a commodious basement are used in the business and steady employment is given to some ten skilled workmen. The trade is chiefly from the city and its surrounding country. Mr. Gurney is a Newark man and has had long experience in the business. For many years he was a member of the firm of W. H. Drummond & Co., and retired to engage in business for himself. He is a prompt and reliable dealer and all work or business intrusted to him will be well and carefully done. He has been honored by his fellow-citizens, who selected him as a member of the Board of Education, Water Commission, and Freeholders, all of which offices he filled with honor to himself and acceptance to the public. |
