WHALING GUN, BOMB LANCES
AND GUN
A FTER YEARS LABOR AND
IA experimenting upon whales, on the whaling ground, with
his apparatus, combined with the advantages of being a practical
whaleman, the Patentee has been enabled to obtain an instru-
ment in form of a Bomb Lance, which for utility and effective
ness cannot be eXcelled.
The attention of Agents and Officers of whale-ships is called
to the following testimonials.
SAN Francisco, January 10, 1856.
CAPT. r. BRowN-Sir: I take this opportunity to inform
you that we used those Bomb Lances we bought of you, and
found them to be of great benefit in capturing whales amongst
the ice.
The first whale that we used the Bomb Lance on was killed
IN the following manner The boat went alongside of the whale
and the boat-steerer fired a Bomb into him and then fastened to
him with a gig iron the Bomb was heard to explode, and the
whale did not blow after the Bomb exploded. The above-men-
toned whale was in the ice, and it is our opinion that we should
not have got that whale and many others that we did get, if it
had not been for your Bomb Lances, and we fully recommend
them to the attention of those fitting out whale ships.
Respectfully yours,
THOMAS WALL, Master bark George.
HONOLULU, March Il, 1856.
CAPT. ROBERT BROwN-My dear Sir I used your Bomb
Lances in taking a whale, north, the past season, which made
$50 bbls. of oil. We never could have taken him without said
Lances, as our boats could not get near enough to use the COM
mon hand lance.
Yours Respectfully,
G. L. Cox, Master whale-ship Magnolia.
HONOLULU, March Is, 1856.
CAPT. ROBERT BRowN-Dear SIR I take this opportunity
to inform you that I used your Bombs on the voyage i'm the shin
recommend them to all whalemen, and especially around the ice.
l also used the harpoon and got most OF the whales by your
Guns and apparatus.
Yours Respectfully,
