Hi
We had .the pleasure this week
of examining the painting done by
H. W-‘ Downs &'BFo., on some/of ‘
the fine buggies tha't they are torn-'
ing'ohL.vand we .must say, that it
equals if it does not surpass the
work done- by the finest carriage
factories. In ‘other words one of
their buggies after it is, completed
will answer very satisfactorily for
a looking glass.
