THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTA self-made man is Mr. Matthew Kelly, the popular and successful grocer, and hay and feed dealer, corner of Tenth Avenue and 56th Street. Mr. Kelly is one of the most practical and experienced business men in the community. Early in life he came to this country from Ireland, and soon after entered the employment of the widely known firm of Adams & Howe, corner of Washington and Franklin Streets, and with whom he remained for upwards of fourteen years. He next was connected with the house of Soun Brothers, corner of North Moore and Washington Streets, and in both instances faithfully and ably served his employers, and earned their lasting esteem and respect. In 1869 he established in the grocery business as senior member of the firm of Kelly & Fitzpatrick, and located at the corner of Tenth Avenue and 69th Street. The business was thus carried on until, in 1878, the firm dissolved partnership, and Mr. Kelly started in business upon his own account at the unusually central and eligible stand at No. 851 Tenth Avenue. Here, in a fine store twenty-five by fifty feet, he opened out a first-class stock of choice staple and fancy groceries, while in the rear portion of his establishment he carried on the hay and feed business. His honorable business methods and superior class of Roods, always selling at lowest market rates, speedily drew a large trade, which grew so constantly that Mr. Kelly was obliged to hire a store across the street from his grocery in which to carry on the hay and feed business. The dimensions of this place are twenty by thirty, and wherein can at all times be found a full assortment of hay, straw, oats, corn, cracked corn, meal, oil meal. bran, canal feed, etc., all of the best quality, and which meet with ready sale. Mr. Kelly gives close personal attention to every detail of his fine trade, which is constantly enlarging and not by any means confined to the West Side. Few of our merchants have better commercial qualifications, none have a higher reputation for fail-dealing and integrity, and we are pleased to thus be able to refer to Mr. Kelly in this historical record of the city's leading business interests.
