| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | Prominent among the old, well established, and reliable business houses of Bloomfield is that of C. L. Ward & Son, carriage manufacturers and blacksmiths. Established in 1841 by Mr. C. L. Ward, it has enjoyed for forty years continued popularity and success. Starting with a small capital, the increasing demands of the business necessitated the investment of larger sums. Each step as made is held, and thus in a gradual but safe and sure way the business has been built up, and at the present writing is one of the largest in the town. The blacksmith shop is a brick one 36x40 feet in size, well provided with anvils, etc., for the prosecution of business. Immediately in the rear is the carriage manufactory and ample frame building, two stories high. Everything connected with their line of business is performed, and the estal)lishment resounds with the busy hum of industry and the ringing of anvils. The individual members of the firm are C. L. and David E. Ward, both native Jerseymen and prominent citizens of Bloomfield, with whose business interests they have long been identified. The firm have issued the following card, to which they call especial attention: "To Owners of Horses. Your attention is respectfully solicited to the facilities we are able to offer in all cases coming under our care and attention. The senior partner of our firm, with forty years' practical experience in the shoeing of horses and treatment of the different diseases of feet and limbs, still continues to give his special attention to all cases of lameness, and feels confident that where the trouble is amenable to treatment he can effect a cure. The shoeing department is complete in every respect, and special attention is given by competent hands toward improving the gait of the horse. The completion of our new work-shops gives us facilities unsurpassed for the execution of all orders in the way of building or repairing of your rolling stock. Please cdl at your convenience and examine our facilities and references." The fact that their establishment has enjoyed forty years' uninterrupted success is comment enough to show the business standing of the house. |
