| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | In the Orange Valley, a portion of the ccporate limits of Orange, there are centered a number of hat manufactories, this industry being one of the most important in this section of New jersey, one of the old-established concerns being that of Mr. Samuel D. McChesney, who has been engaged in the business since 1870. The establishment comprises several buildings covering about 150x200 feet of ground, divided into different departments and provided with all the requisite machinery and appliances, such as pouncing and blocking machines, etc. A thirty-five-horse power engine is in constant use and upward of fifty experienced makers and finishers are employed in the various parts of the factory in the production of felt hats, which are always in active demand in the leading wholesale markets. Mr. McChesney is a native of Milburn, but has been in Orange many years engaged in the manufacture of hats. He is one of the leading representative men in the business in the Valley, and is well known for his liberality and public spirit. |
