First, I'm puzzled by the name John Phenix Moore being at the helm or in management in 1884 as info suggests he passed in 1881. As far as I know he did not have a son named J.P. Moore but his sister had a son named John Phenix Moore Richards and possibly it is he that is referred. W.S. Miniszek may also have been in management but I for now I hold that Schoverling, Daly & Gales owned the concern.

Kind Regards,
