| TEXT | In Bloomfield and the neighboring village of Watsessing are many prominently engaged in the manufacture of hats, and a leading firm is that of Ellor, Law & Co. The business was started in 1867 by A. E. Ellor, the famous hat manufacturer, it passing into the hands of its present proprietors in 1879. The establishment occupies a large two-story main building and several annexes. Machinery of the most improved description is used, power being supplied by a twelve-horse engine. One hundred skilled and experienced workmen find steady employment in all the various departments and are well paid, the weekly pay-roll averaging $1,500. Three hundred dozen of hats are manufactured weekly and sent to the New York and Philadelphia markets. These embrace all styles and varieties of fine felt and fur hats, noted for their easy fit, lightness, and stylishness. The individual members of the firm are James E. Ellor, Francis Law, and Thomas Smith. Mr. Ellor and Mr. Smith were born in England, while Mr. Law is a native of New Jersey. All three gentlemen are active and enterprising, and control one of the leading enterprises of Bloomfield. No firm in the city stands higher in the estimation of the people and no gentlemen engaged in business are more popular. |
