| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | This house was established twenty-five years ago and has occupied the present quarters during the past two years. Its trade extends all over the United States and Canada. The goods are manufactured at Middleboro, Mass., where the factories are located, and where five hundred hands are kept steadily employed, this being one of the largest establishments of the kind in the country and known as the Bay State Straw Works. The productions of these works are ladies', misses', and children's hats, made of straw, and are of all grades. This firm has a very large trade. They occupy one very commodious floor in the large five-story building for office and sample rooms, the capacity of which is fifty by one hundred feet. Mr. Alden has charge of the factory at Middleboro, and Mr. Hartshorn is always to be found at the New York office. Both of these gentlemen are natives of Massachusetts and came to New York more than twenty-five years ago; they now rank among the solid business men of the great metropolis. |
