If stranger asks permission TO Inspect

other day with his son Garrett, when
asked if his nativity was not Scotch.
lie was born in Ireland" said Carr
rctt, "but you can set him down as
thorough American. His career has
been one of the phenomenal ones in this
country. At II years of age he came
to America alone to hunt out an uncle
who lived in Texas. He found that
Texas was SO far from New York that
he concluded to remain hero. The old
iron works OF James Allaire were then
the largest in the country. The lad
| sought employment there and was told
| he could bc taken on as an apprentice
to learn the trade by paying 500, lie
worked at odd jobs and boarded for
over a year to get that sum. When he
reported to the foreman that Official
called him a goodtornothing Irish
| brat. and refused to set him at work.
| Tho lad marched over to the Office. lie
went up to the proprietor's desk. Pull
| inp out his memorandum he said: 'Mr.
Allaire, I've paid you my 800 I've
got your receipt. But the foreman says
I'm good for nothing and won't take
me on. 1 am good for something, and
want my chance" Allaire was
pleased with the Irish boys pluck and
he got fair play. He was offered the
forcman's place years later and refused
it. Afterward he was made foreman.
The works passed into the hands OF
Thcodosius Sccor, and John Roach set
up little shop in Goerch street. His
first job was "a lot of crate bars for a
Williamsburg brewery, which he made
and delivered himself, carrying over
two or three at a time. With his own
hands he made tho pillars that still
form the front OF Bellevue Hospital.
When James Allairc failed he formed q
stock company and continued the busi'
ness with Allairc at the head. Ills
