In the Month
Of April
Eight and Fifty
Years Ago

at six-thirty in the morning of
the eighth the writer of this un-
locked the old wholesale store
of the Levicks, forty by fifty
five feet in size, and the initial
step of this business was taken
on the spot where the Schuylkill
Bank had failed and where the
Levicks later on were closed up
by the Civil War.
1t was a very little store, oc-
cupying two stories, with a small
stock of clothing paid for, which
took all our capital and left US
only large stock of enthusiasm
and courage, surrounded though
the location was by well-known
stores with large stocks of goods.
The two bosses and one en-
ploye did all the work for this
new store and had time to spare.
Alexander T. Stewart, forty
years earlier, began in New
York in similar way, with
small stock, doing all the work
himself for a long time.
Sons of poor men we were,
and there were others on the
same long, long trail toward
making a name and a reputa-
ton; and we wish "Good luck"
now to the boys to-day just be-
ginning to travel the same old
/ well-worn trail.
Franklin was a journeyman
printer and son of a tallow
chandler and soap-boiler.
Oliver Cromwell was the son
Of a London brewer.
Shakespeare was the son Of a
wool stapler.
Robert Burns was a plowman
in Ayrshire.
Ulysses S. Grant was a tan
