| TEXT | This extensive manufacturing Company is the second of its class engaged in its branch of industry in the State of New York, with its factory in Newark, and has been established since 1845 under the charter of the State of New York. It is under the operation of a regular Board of Directors, at the head of which Walter Edwards is president, and the factory and works at Newark are under the general superintendence of F. Alexander, the general manager for the Company. The mill and works cover four acres of ground and are a threestory frame building 75x85 feet and are fitted with the best machinery for the business, which is operated by a steam engine of thirty-five-horse power and give steady employment to twenty-five experienced hands. There is a sulphur refiner of one hundred and twenty-five feet square and three lead chambers of ninety six thousand cubic feet, having a capacity of ten tons of acid and seven tons of brimstone per day. A large trade is done in Newark and over the West, shipments being made direct from the Company's dock or by railroad. |
