| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | The commercial metropolis of the country has also become the recognized centre of the trade in jewelry, watches, and diamonds, and the interests thus actively identified with New York have grown to proportions of the greatest magnitude, enlisting large capital, and the most talented and skilful commercial guidance. In the above connection the name of Middleton has won a measure of popularity, confidence, and respect in the commercial metropolis of the country second to no others in the same line. The present well known house of Middleton & Brother was established in 1866, but long prior to that date Mr. R. S. Middleton had been active in the trade, dating back to 1851, when he was a member of the old firm of Saltzmann, Middleton & Co. In January, 1855, the firm dissolved, and was succeeded by Messrs. Middleton & Pooler, who in turn gave place to the present house of Middleton & Brother, in May, 1866. The members of this active house are Mr. R. S. Middleton and Mr. J. D. Middleton. They have ever held a position of prominence in the importing and wholesale trade in the lines of watches, jewelry, and diamonds, and in the earlier years of the trade theirs was strictly an importing house. Now, however, they handle a general line of fine domestic and foreign goods, and have a full assortment of Swiss and American watches, by the best makers, elegant new style jewelry in rich and artistic designs, and also lines of fine diamond jewelry. The firm's trade extends throughout the entire country, and is as permanent as it is extensive. The house has been continuously located at No. 10 Maiden Lane, and no better known or more popular concern can be found in the street. The activity and enterprise of this house need not be recounted here, since its merit is fully recognized in the trade, and New York may well be congratulated on the possession of such energetic business men as the members of this firm are known to be. |
