James Hamilton

JAMES HAMILTON, Dairyman, 292, Great Western Road, Glasgow.

    Amongst the many noted establishments in this favourite thoroughfare one of the most popular is, undoubtedly, “Hamilton’s Dairy”, which, as its name implies, is devoted to the supply of all that is excellent in this class of produce, and which has been securely installed in public esteem by the energetic administration of the spirited proprietor.

    The business was established about six years ago by Mr. James Hamilton, who had for many years previous held a leading position with Mr. Hugh Hamilton, then the most extensive purveyor of milk in Glasgow. Mr. Hamilton selected, as the site of the business, the handsome and commodious premises he now occupies at 292, Great Western Road, which are laid out in modern style with all the latest sanitary improvements, and present a spotlessly clean and attractive appearance. The Dairy is supplied with a daily renewed stock of fresh butter, home-baked scones and cakes, new-laid eggs, and milk and cream of the purest and best quality. The thirsty way-farer may also enjoy a glass of lemonade or other mineral waters at this establishment, which is highly popular with cyclists and pedestrians travelling this road.

    A first-class family connection has been established by Mr. Hamilton, who employs two well-horsed and appointed vehicles for the delivery of milk, etc., to his numerous circle of influential patrons. Mr. Hamilton also caters for the requirements of hotels, dairies, restaurants, business houses, soirees, and excursions, at the most moderate rates. The services of a staff of about a dozen hands are employed in the Dairy under the personal active supervision of the principal, who possesses the advantage of extended and thoroughly practical experience in every detail of the business; and by his sound judgment, well-directed energy, and unvarying courtesy, has secured the respect, confidence, and support of an ever-widening circle of patrons in the city and surrounding districts.
