Alfred Wright closed at noon on Saturday -- 1881

Alfred Wright, the owner of the perfumery, is believed to be the first (major?) employer in Rochester, New York, who closed his business on noon on Saturdays "so that his workers would have ample time for their various private affairs and be ready to attend Sabbath school the next morning."

Alfred Wright began this practice in 1881.
