TEXT	One of the oldest horseshoeing establishments in Orange is that now carried on by Mr. Wm. R. McKay, on Main Street, near Centre. The business was established in 1859 by Mr. John McKay, his father, who continued it a number of years, when it passed into the hands of his eldest son, Mr. John McKay, Jr., and in 1879 to Mr. Wm. R. McKay, a younger son. Mr. Wm. R. McKay was brought up to the business under the careful tuition of his father, and is familiar with all the details of the trade, and is pronounced as being one of the most careful and competent horseshoers in this vicinity, and enjoys a large and widespread patronage. He also gives attention to general jobbing in blacksmithing, and also to getting out iron work for carriages. Mr. McKay is an expert and ingenious artisan and enjoys a substantial reputation and the esteem of the whole community. Mis father, Mr. John McKay, although retired from active business pursuits, gives his attention and greatly assists his son in the business, which is large and continues to steadily increase.
