Note: From Obituary in The Credit Trader : "He often described himself to me as "just a shepherd lad" a herd, if you like from the Ayrshire hills, who cam to London in 1881, all his worldly possessions in a tin trunk. He served his time with his uncle, Hugh Smith of Philpot Street, in a business established a century ago. He made his business in the only way then known, by "whisking," a word that is now obsolete, and which just meant "canvassing." It involved sheer, hard physical work, for goods were carried and they were heavy cottons and woollens, and it meant perserverance and constant application to work, day in day out. |
