In the meantime webbing looms had been built by Fairbanks & co in the mill now owned by Mr McIlroy, and as Mr. Stanton was throughly acquainted with the business, they were glad to furnish him employment.

Put it away and keep it." He followed her advice, and when, in after time, his emplyers wished to sell their business, he was prepared to purchase it.
