NORTH ADAMS DIRECTORY.


DEAN OF CITY PRINTERS.


James T. Larkin Has Rounded Out Quarter of a Century.


(From North Adams, Mass. Transcript Sept 10,'02.)


James T. Larkin, publisher of the North Adams directory, completed with the ending of the day's. work at 6 o'clock Tuesday a quarter of cen- tury of continuous experience in the printing business in this city. There is no other man in the harness for that length of time.


Recalling the fact for the benefit of one or two interested friends yester- day afternoon Mr. Larkin remembered very distinctly starting in on the morning of September 10, 1877, to serve his printer's +5.prenticeship in the Transcript office. The apprentice in those days was a "devil" and it is the belief of those who know him that nc one shone more brightly in that po- sition of inky gory than Mr. Larkin. "Jimmy" worked in the Transcript office for about nine years, and was foreman for the last two or three years and then in '86 he began busi- ness for himself.


When he started to publish the di- rectory in '88 he was located in his present establishment at the head of Main street and has been there since. The fifteenth directory from Mr. Lar- kin's printing piant was issued this year. Besides being a printer Mr Larkin has been a newspaper man and for a number of years was the local correspendont of the Springfield and Troy papers.


He has watched the city grow from the time when two local editors hand- led all the news to the present day when six reporters are required and has a keen insight of local affairs. The strenuous days of early papers and their makers are to him as an open book. His 25 years in the bus- iness in this city makes him the dean of local printerdom.


And still at the same old stand.
