| TEXT | One of the representative successful business men of New York, who began his career as a boy with nothing much except pluck, energy, and intelligence, but who to-day moves along the high road to fortune, is Mr. John Byrns, whose extensive plumbing establishment and ale pump manufactory at No. 425 Grand Street is one of the best equipped places of ite kind in the country. Mr. Byrns manufactures an excellent line of improved ale pumps, which are very popular among liquor merchants. He ships these goods to all parts of the United States, and exports large quantities to South America. Mr. Byrns has been in this branch of trade for twenty-six years. He employs about fifty skilled workmen, and turns out the very finest class of work. His establishment is fitted up with the most unproved machinery and tools. He is a practical workman and superintends personally every detail of his large industry. Mr. Byrns was inspector of gas meters for the State of New York from 1869 to 1880, and has always been one of our most public-spirited citizens. His great success in life may be attributed to the fact that he has never touched anything outside of legitimate business. With that sterling quality which characterizes successful merchants, he has amassed a handsome fortune, and few men wear the mantle of prosperity with a more liberal hand than he. Fair, square, and honorable in everything, he deserves the gratifying success which has attended h!s efforts. |
