| TEXT | The Sheep-Skin Tannery of Franklin and John Ott, Oxford Street, was established in 1853 by Franklin Ott. In 1879 the building, which was of framework, was burned down, and during the same year was replaced by the brick edifice now occupied by the firm. It stands next to the Lorne Bridge in West Brant. From twenty to twenty-five hands are constantly employed in this and the Greenwich Street Factory, and about 100,000 sheep-skins tanned per annum, the principal productions being morocco and russets. The partnership is not registered but the partners enjoy an equality in the business. They are wide-awake energetic business men, thoroughly conversant with all the details of their trade, and control one of the most important branches of manufacture in the city. |
