Excerpt from Illustrated and Descriptive Catalogue of Instruments of Precision: For Field and Astronomical Purposes, Their Construction, Care of and Adjustments

In presenting the present edition of my illustrated and descriptive Catalogue to the profession, I am pleased to state that during the past eight years the changes and additions, representing not experiments upon my friends, but improvements for their benefit, have met with the fullest approval of many of our most Eminent Engineers throughout the Country.

For the character of my work I have but one reference to make, i. e. the perfection of graduations, power and definition of telescopes, and absolutely fine workmanship, combined with lightness, strength and ease of manipulation.

From my thorough practical knowledge of every branch of the business, aided by the best mechanical skill obtainable, I trust that the reputation I have gained will be sufficient inducement to my friends not only to continue their liberal favors, but also to recommend me to their friends, who may be assured that it will continue to be my aim as heretofore, to merit their valued confidence by a continuance of my prompt and careful attention to any business, they may personally or by letter place in my hands.

The warrantee of my instruments in regard to construction, accuracy of optical parts, and excellence of workmanship not being limited as to time, the owners of instruments of my manufacture may rely upon prompt attention concerning all reasonable demands made upon me.

In conclusion I would say that Engineers are often misled in ordering instruments of parties pretending to manufacture, such as Dealers in Drawing Instruments and Materials, Opticians, Thermometer Makers, etc.

It is needless to say, that instruments furnished by these parties are made for the trade, with the advertisers name engraved upon them, and are a disgrace to the mechanical profession.

In all cases the Engineer should order his instruments from a reputable manufacturer direct, in order to obtain a first-class article.

This does not include parties acting as agents for other houses.
