| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | The importance and value that often attaches to the transportation of freight, renders it a matter of necessity that those entrusted with its carrying or keeping should he of the highest trust and integrity, whose standing and reputation must be ahove question. The business transacted by our forwarding and shipping merchants has assumed a magnitude far beyond that of most commercial enterprises. Our railroads are constantly extending their tracks, in order to keep pace with the rapid development of the country and steady increase of freights. A prominent forwarding and shipping house in New York is that of Mr. John D..Kelley, Jr., No. 53 Broadway, which was established in 1867, and since its foundation at that date has enjoyed a liberal and substantial patronage. Mr. Keiley is foreign freight agent for the Old Dominion S. S. Co. and connections, also Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, Virginia, Tennessee and Georgia Air Line, and several other lines. Taking advantage of our unequalled facilities of communication by land and water Mr. Keiley affords unsurpassed advantages to shippers of freight of every description, in being able to forward goods over a number of roads without the trouble and labor of obtaining a separate bill of lading from each concern. For instance, a merchant shipping goods from New York which must pass over four or five different railroads, need only transact business with Mr. Keiley, who assumes the entire responsibility for the safe delivery and keeping of all merchandise entrusted to him. Mr. Kelley is a native of Virginia but has long resided in this city, and has already achieved success in this field of usef ulness, and is an earnest, active, energetic business man, whose services merchants are fortunate in securing. It is a matter of great convenience and vast importance to the mercantile public to possess such houses as that managed by Mr. Keiley, and of such punctuality anil reliability, by which they can forward their goods and merchandise at remarkably low rates. Enterprise, energy and ability have characterized the operations of this house in the past and give every promise of a long and successful career in the future. |
