County towns about forty years ago.
There We're one or two at Nargidg4
wock, one ct least if 1cfdfr and arr
other one just over. in Franklin Counr
ty'' at New Sharon About 1882
Messrs. C. Davis Miller and Ed Wyn
man formed Il partnership under
the name of Miller & Wyman and went
into business in Skowhegan.
They had large, splendidly light
ed room in the rear end of what is
now the Heselton block ON Water st.
Here at one time they had a crew
of forty-seven girls and seven men,
making coats, pants, vests and over
coats.
: Mr.. Miller is still citizen of Show
hogan; Mr. Wyman, who came here
from Norridgewock, now lives in Au-
burn. After a few years this cloth
ing business commenced to develop
in larger centers, 1t was then. run
under the worst sort Of sweat shop
conditions and the clothing was pur-
chased at such low figure that the
shops in the country, one by one,
abandoned the Geld. Mr., Mlller re-

the situation at one time. Visiting
headquarters where clothing was

get 1t out at tliat9priee. That in
order to pay respectable wages he
would haveto have S1.1g. The man
ager called to the man who had just
brought In bundle Of these garments
and let Mr.. Miller talk with him.
1t developed that in his little factory
he was employing women, mostly of
foreign birth. whom he picked up in
New York City. They were working
twelve hours a day, seven days in
the week, for $500 week OF course
there was no hope of competing with
that sort of thing. Mr.. Miller came
home and soon afterwards the firm of
Miller d Wyman closed up their cloth
ing business.
