ABRAM WAKEMAN, AUTHOR OF THIS BOOK West Side Buyers in Lower Wall Street 129 The lower end of Wall street was as crowded in thosedays as the upper end is now. The wholesale grocerybusiness from the west side were represented every dayby their buyers. R. H. Davies, for H. K. Thurber & Co.;Thomas McCarthy, for Fitts & Austin, later Austin,Nichols & Co.; Mr. Greenwood, for Hoppock & Green-wood ; M. Barnicle, for Henry Welsh & Co. Perhapsthere was no house on this west side that employed somany different clerks. They did a large business, andmany wonderful tales are told of them. L. Schepp didhis own buying—Sheffield & Childs were his tea brokersfor a while. We thought he was a wonderfully brightbuyer; while drawing teas, Mr. Schepp would say to thesalesmen standing around: Now, boys, each one markon a slip of paper your very lowest prices. After test-ing the teas he would whisper to one: Just run aroundto the office and see how much they will shade the price.He
