KOTB -The 'rmSe referred to bv Judge flricr in
els Tunner dxcis'on, d Wailaco, p. 289 adopted as
pp !csbis to this cose was as follows:
"It is usually the case, when any valuable discov
ery la nads, or any new machine of great nii.llv Is
Invented, that tbea:tentlcn of the public has been
turned to that subjeet prevtoujly, and that many

esfiil experiments and failnres of others, but It
jrlvos 'hem ao rlitnt to claim a share or the henor of
iiic prodt of the siiixessfnl inventor Jt Is when

periment has resulted in disravcrv and when that

have at length succeeds, in ajdle of sneers and
seoas aomu valuable Invcutlon or dlsco-ery, how
sld..ici is it followed by reward 1 Envy rubs him
ttf tlm honor, while specalators, swindlers, and pi
