"At the close of 1867 there were in Scotland sixteen firms engaged in the manufacture of flax, hemp and jute, who employed 1000 persons or upwards, the aggregate number of operatives being 31,162, or on average of about 1948. (...) The works of eight of the firms are in Dundee, two in Glasgow, two in Greenock, and one each in Aberdeen, Johnstone, Markinch, and Arbroath." -- David Bremner, The Industries Of Scotland, 1869
