PABLO MELGAR30 Jul 2017Montevideo was the bound destination of Samuel Lafone. Born in Liverpool within a wealthy family, being very young he decided to try his luck in America.
Of Protestant faith, it married in secret by that rite with the daughter of a Catholic merchant of Buenos Aires. He was expelled from Argentina in 1832 and landed on the Uruguayan coast where he built a real commercial empire that made time.
Successful writer Mercedes Vigil retakes the story in her latest work: "Word of English, the Life of Samuel Lafone". The book was presented in Buenos Aires by the deputy Lilita Carrió and in Punta del Este with the presence of the writer Guillermo Lopetegui and Jackie Campomar Lafone, one of the descendants of the entrepreneur.
Mason and Calvinist, collided with the most conservative Catholic structures of his time and became a millionaire with the business of leather, fat and wool. He also got into the world of mining in the Argentine province of Catamarca.
Its industry and the shipyard were in the place that at the moment occupies the refinery of Ancap. There he had a saladero and a tannery of great dimensions. The business had its period of splendor after the Great War (1839-1851).
He also dedicated himself to bringing in European emigrants. For this he acquired land and divided them in various areas of the country. In addition, it bet on the financial businesses getting to found several banking entities based on its productive activity.

In 1842 he set up a town for some of his employees to live in. He called her Victoria in honor of the British Queen. Installed 300 houses with English-style roof tiles. Thus was born the neighborhood of La Teja.
For Vigil, Lafone was an advance. It shows that all his employees worked eight hours a day and enjoyed Sunday rest, a century before Uruguay legislated on the matter.
At first the Englishman took advantage of a pact between the Argentine caudillo Juan Manuel de Rosas and the British crown whereby the merchandise did not pay taxes and it was a great business to send raw material and to buy manufactured products within the United Kingdom.
On the other hand, Lafone had a high level of compliance in the trade agreements, something that differentiated it from its foreign competitors, according to the writer explained. In this way, the concept of "word of English" was generated that generated the title of the book.
At one point Samuel and Alexander Lafone acquired the peninsula of Punta del Este, Gorriti Island and obtained permission for fur farming on Isla de Lobos. Bearing in mind that at that time that area was a set of dunes, the businessmen brought dromedaries to transport the skins.
In addition, the Crown had granted them the exploitation of the Falkland Islands or Malvinas.
