Excerpt:
“An institution is the lengthened shadow of one man.’ This quotation, from Emerson’s ‘Essay on Self-Reliance,’ has been proved many times by the House of Morrell…Even during the difficult years since 1929 John Morrell & Co. has continued to forge ahead—introducing new quality products—opening new markets—recording new and spectacular accomplishments.”
