Acushnet

Acushnet Mill on Acushnet Avenue. Is this the same company that makes Titleist brand golf equipment?

Berkshire Hathaway

That is the original Hathaway Manufacturing Company of New Bedford, which became Berkshire Hathaway, which was eventually purchased by Warren Buffett and became an investment vehicle propelling the stock from roughly $16 a share to over $150,000 (now back down to $100,000).

Lewis

This kid almost looks prosperous.
