| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | This firm is composed of Isaac C. Ogden, John B. Huntting, Elias Ogden and Charles A. Meigs. The business was established in 1817, and is probably the oldest of its kind in the city of New York. This immense establishment has a front on Thirteenth Avenue extending the entire distance from 21st to 23d Street and having a depth of two hundred feet, with an office and yard at No. 392 Washington Street. A capital of two hundred thousand dollars is invested, and the stock, which is very extensive in its proportions, comprises the following kinds of lumber: mahogany, cedar, red cedar,walnut, butternut, chestnut, whitewood, cherry, pine, oak, ash, spruce, hemlock, shelving, ceiling, flooring, and also walnut and ash ceiling and flooring, together with all other kinds of lumber which are used in the construction of buildings for utility or ornament. So far as appears from our reports this important business has been carried on at the present address from its inception and has always been a marked success, the firm doing a wholesale and retail business and the annual transactions rising into colossal figures. The necessary number of men with a full complement of horses and trucks are kept on hand for the delivery of goods and for the general purpose of facilitating business. These gentlemen are well known in both commercial and social circles and are held in high repute for their honorable and upright manner of doing business, a firmer hold of the public thought and a still further increasing trade bring the natural result. |
