AMERICAN 6 FOREIGN pArENrg

ID H. EDDY Solicitor of Patents, Hate Agent l0s of the U. s. Patent Office, Washington. un- der the Act of 1887 )76 State St., opposite Kilby After an extensive practice of upwards of twenty years, continues to secure Patents in the United States also in Great Britain, France, and other for eign countries. Caveats, Specifications, Assign ments, and all Papers Drawings for Patents exc. cuted in liberal terms, and with despatch. Resear ches made into American Foreign works, to de- termine the validity utility of Patents or Inven- legal other advice rendered in all mat ters touching the Copies of the claims of any Patent furnished by remitting One Dollar. Assign. | ments recorded at Washington. This Agency is not only the largest in New Eng land but through it inventors have advantages for securing patents, ascertaning the patentability of inventions, unsurpassed by if not immeasurably superior to- any that be offered them elsewhere The testimonials below given, prove that none is MORE SUCCESSFUL THE PATENT OFFICE than the sub scriber and SUCCESS IS THE BEST PROOF ADvAN- l FACES OR ABILITY, he would add that he has album dant reason to believe, and can prove, that at no other office of the kind are the charges for profes sional services moderate. The immense practice of the subscriber during twenty years past has ena-
 bled him to accumulate vast collection of speciti- cations and official decisions relative to patents. These besides his extensive library of legal and me- chanica works and full accounts of patents granted in the United States and Europe, render him able
 beyond question: to offer superior facilities for ob- 1 taining patents. All necessity of journey to Washington, to pro-. cure paCeLG, aIu tlo uSudl great tQcfG, are
 here saved inventors.
 | TESTIMONIALS.
 l "I regard Mir Eddy as of the most capable and successful practitioners with whom have had official intercourse. CHA'S MASON" l .. Commissioner of Patents
 "I have no hesitation in assuring Invensors that
 they cannot employ person competent and trust
 ,corthy and more capable of putting their applica-
 tions in form to secure for them an early and fa-
 vorable consideration at the Patent Office. l EDMUND BURKE l late Commissioner of Patents. 1 'BosroN, February 8, 1858.
 "Mr. R. H. Eddy has made for me THIRTEEN ap-
 plcations all but of which patents have been
 granted. and that one is pending. Such unmis-
 takale proof of great talent and ability On his part
 leads to recommend aU inventors to apply to him
 to procure their patents, and they may be sure of
 paving the most fathfl attention bestowed on their
 cases, and at very reasonable charges.
 l JOHN TAGGART" I From Sept. 17th, 1857 to June 17th 1858, the
 subscriber, in of his large practice, made on
 t,cice rejected applications, SIXTEEN APPEALS EVERY ONE of which decided in his fauor, by l the Commissioner of Patents.
