fresh water, yet on my arrival at the Cape in December, 1810,
it was free from mildew, and in fair condition. I therefore am
led to believe, that the invention of this process is likely to
prove of great value and utility.
Believe me, Sir,
Your very obedient servant,
Mr. James Jacks. HENRY SALT.

Yarmouth, Feb. 28, 1816,

Sut—The sails on board the Mary, made of the canvas as
prepared by Messrs. Browell and Co. have no appearance of
mildew ; some of them, particularly a square mainsail, has
been in constant wear about four years, and being often furled
many days together, was more liable to heat, and of course
mildew ; in my opinion, it is a certain prevention ; and it is my
sincere wish that Messrs. Browell and Co.'s invention may
meet with ;he success it merits. - • _

I am, Sir, your most obedient Servant,
WM. OTTEY,
Thomas Hurry, Esq. Master of the Mary.

• Yarmouth, Aug. 5, 1820.
GENT LE mr.3l—l beg to acqtaint you, in addition to my
letter to Thonim,Hurry, Esq. on the 28th Feb. 1816, stating
the wear of tha canvas on hoard the Mary as prepared by you;
that after a further trial of more than three years (upwards of
seven years in. the Whole), particularly the square mainsail,
there is now no appearance of Mildew ; this sail has been
headed twice with unprepared canvas during that time ; the
prepared canvas is now better than thb head, the sail is often
furled many days, and of course more liable to heat and mil-
dew.—Also two cloths on the head of a topsail to the first reef
of prepared canvas has been in wear near four years, and ap-
pears perfectly free from Mildew ; the unprepared canvas is
mildewed and more worn.A sail made of any canvas prepared
by your process, will in all climates wear out two sails of com-
mon canvas.—l shall be happy to find your Invention meets
with that success which in my opinion it so justly deserves, as
I trust it will prove of great value and utility.
I am, &c.,
Messrs. Browell and Co. WM. OTTE Y, Master of the Mary.

39, Old Broad-street, July 1, 1821.
Stet—Considering it of great importance to persons concerned
in shipping that the success of any invention to promote the du-
rability of the materialsused in their equipment should be
made knoWn, 1 have no hesitation in stating that the canvas
prepared by Messrs. Browell's Anti-Mildew Process, and put
into the sails of the .ship Fame, on a voyage from London to
Calcutta and back, completely resisted the effects of Mildew,
whilst the canvas that had not undergone such preparation was
more or less injured, and in some places completely rotten.
I remain, Sir, your most obedient Servant,
JOSEPH DOWSON, Jun.

No. 7, Royal Exchange, July 14, 1821.
SIR—I have the pleasure to state, for your information, that
the canvas prepared by Messts. Browell and Co's Anti-Mildew
Pro&as, and put into the sails of the ship Marquis of Hastings,
on a voyage from London to Bombay and back, fully answered
the expectation formed of it, there being no appearance of Mil-
dew on any. part of it, when examined on the ship's return, nor
on the awning, which was of course much exposed to all the
changes of climate and weather ; and, as the experiment was
equally successful when applied to the sails of another ship of
mine, the Neptune, in the Davis Straits and Greenland Fishery,
I have no hesitation in expressing my decided opinion of its ef-
ficacy as a complete preservative from Mildew in all climates.
I am, Sir, your most obedient Servant,
