Mr. Samuel J. Waring, Junior, 1898. 'The Fusion of Art and Commerce. A remarkable and interesting gathering took place at the Hotel Cecil on Friday night, when about five hundred gentlemen sat down to dinner on the occasion of the first annual reunion of the combined staffs of three famous business houses identified for many generations with the rise and progress of art in the home - namely, Warings, Gillows, and Collinson and Lock, now formed into one company and trading under the name of Waring and Gillow, Limited. The Great Hall of the Hotel Cecil, in which the dinner took place, was a fitting theatre for such a gathering, being one of the earliest decorative triumphs of the house of Waring. Mr. Samuel J. Waring, junior, Managing Director, occupied the chair, and he was supported by the following co-directors - Mr. John W. Waring, Mr. James E. Waring, Mr. James McLaren, Mr. Thomas B. Clarke, Mr. Sidney Marler, and Mr. W. G. Ponter'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
