- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)When Charles Kickham's house in Fethard Street became vacant Nortons moved into it and carried on the boot-making industry there. The industry seems to have been in a flourishing condition at this time as people can rememer seing both sides of Fethard St lined with rolls of leather.During the world war (1914 - 1918) the trade began to decline. Leather became so dear that the price of boots went up to 33/- and 35/- per pair. People began to wear a lighter type of boot, and so there was very little demand for the heavy expensive Mullinahone brogue. At the time of the Civil War Nortons had 2,000 pairs of boots on the premises. These they disposed of by selling them at a very reduced price or by giving them away gratis. They have still several pairs of uppers, principally ladies'.In the early days of the industry the uppers were made in Mullinahone, but later they were bought ready-made.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
