Macmillan - 1930 - John Rifkin, Blacksmith, Farrier, Iron Merchant and Wagon-Builder, Sixth Ave. (behind New Stanley Hotel) - continues with old skills - builds all kinds of wagons as they used to be built - strong and specially adapted for the rough wear of primitive roads and conditions; and while the busy motor traffic of Nairobi goes noisily past his establishment, it is interesting to watch the work of the farriers there fitting new shoes on patient horses …… Almost next door Mr Rifkin's son, Philip, is engaged as a merchant in hides and skins, and has done very well since he started that business in 1926.
