SEYSSELL ASPIIALTE COMPANY,
"CLARIDGE'S PATENT," Established
1938.
CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.
The composition with which the footway in Whitehall ,in
face of his Grace the Duke of Buccleuch's, and that at Rich-
mond-terrace, which is now being laid down, being called
Bitumen (another name for Asphalte), a general impression
prevails that the above-named work is made of Seyssel
phalte. This, however, is not the case, the composition being
different in very many respects from the Seyssel Asphalte. It
is needless to point out more than one distinguishable quality,
namely, that the Seyssel Asphalte emits no disagreeable smell ;
whereas the composition now being used in Whitehall sends
forth a most nauseous and horrible effluvium. The fears of
the inhabitants of the neighbourhood, a. well as of those pass-
ing through this great thoroughfare, that their vital action may
be suspended by the effects of this composition, have induced
the Seyssel Asphalte Company thus publicly to repudiate any
connexion with it.
Architects, Builders, and Others.—For the purpose of se-
curing the use of the genuine article, Architects and others are
particularly requested to insert in their specifications " The
Seyssel Asphalte, Claridge's Patent," and not merely " As-
phalte," or " Bitumen," as in many cases where these terms
have been used, gas tar and other worthless and offensive
compositions, have been introduced.
