| TEXT | Among the various and growing commercial industries in this, country that bear the marks of continued prosperity and increase none occupies a more useful and significant position than the manufacture of silk. It has increased greatly during the last few years, and many of our large mills are constantly improving their machinery and the quality of goods manufactured, so that the demand for American silk is yearly increasing, and this branch of industry is assuming immense proportions, and giving employment to a large number of people, especially females. Prominent among, these manufactories is the Liberty Silk Works, located at the corner of Twenty-seventh Street and Eleventh Avenue. They occupy a loft 50x100 feet deep, and employ sixty-five hands, the machinery consisting of thirty-two looms, three winding, two doubling, three quilling, and six warping machines of the latest improved, patterns. They possess all the facilities for producing goods of the finest quality and finish. This concern has been, established two years, and during that short period has achieved a hign reputation for reliability and the manufacture of o. class of goods that are unequalled in the market. The mill is under the management of Mr. James Nightingale, Jr., who is a gentleman of superior abilities, thoroughly practical and well versed in all the details of the manufacture of silk goods, and under his special supervision this concern has attained a high rank and enjoys a merited reputation m commercial circles. Their extensive and remunerative trade is chiefly Western, but their goods are found in all the commercial centres of the country. This company enjoys the confidence and esteem of the commercial community, and is fully deserving the success which it has attained. |
