We observe that Mr. Ansfeld is getting
ready a very respectable tannery, on the
lot he recently purchased at the mouth of
Dozier creek. His steam engine and boiler
will be here in few days, and will enubie
him to carry on the business 50 as to COM
pete with any similar concern elsewhere

and New England, there to be made ingo
leather for our home use is an anomaly
that cannot exist much longer, and we shall
by and by, find it cheaper to make boots
and shoes here, than in Massachusetts
