Tom and all
I have an old pamphlet from MJD that lists 
Darling, Brown and Sharpe Providence RI 1866-1895
I believe that the info was compiled by Ken Cope.

Brown & Sharpe has an online history at

Delve into "A Measure of Perfection" for some fascinating stories, including
some about Samuel Darling.
