There's some information on Ferrie at West End Addresses:

"The business of a music publisher, established by the well-known Morison Kyle at 108, Queen Street, in 1846, has, since 1880, been carried on by Mr. Joseph Ferrie at 4, Bath Street. During its career the firm has devoted itself very largely to the publication of Scottish melody, and has acquired the enviable distinction of being “the only really Scotch music-seller north of the Border”...

    Among the most famous publications of the house are “Kyle’s Scottish Lyric Gems"...It is one of the best and most comprehensive collections of Scottish song-music extant."

From the url I assume the information came from an 1888 directory of some kind.
