Their Inveated eapltal was 50,000, n Inrgo sum In those timos, They had not got fulrly started before tho flnancial panic struck the est, but while old- er houses went down like mnlnepins bofore the blast, the new-comors lield up boldly and well, and toaintained and lu- erensed their business and eredit, In the. fivst year thoy did n buslness of $200,000, and in 1850 extenited thelr stores by taking in thy buildings Nos, 7 aml 76 Laku street. Still thelr trede grew apace, and .when the War ‘eame, with Its heavy demand for goods and great apprecintion of vaines, It fouid Bowen Bros, ready to take advantage of the situn- tion and to neet atl its requirements, In 1863 their Dbuslness had extended to such proportions ns to necessitate much Inrzer quarters, ‘Che - twe mammoth Ator('sl Nos, 10 and 21 Lake street werd seetred and filledd from Lasoment to attic with goods. The unwearying Industry’ and perseverance of Mr, J.
