RARDAWAY'S BOLT, SPIKE
AND
Rivet Manufacturing Company,
OF BA l4TTMOR

The enormous profits resulting from the manufac-
ture of BOLTS, NUTS, SPIKES and RlNETS and
the unlimited demand for those articles renders any
Improvement in machinery for making them worthy
OF the attention of capitalists.
While many bolts made by machines construct
ed for that purpose, all bolts that designed to be
perfect throughout of equal strength and uniformity
have heretofore been made by hand, and at great ex
pense. The best Bolt Machines that have been used
make average less than LOCO bolts per day. nor
are the bolts so made perfect in shape strength.
~, The great des ideratum has been to get machine
that would make bolt uni form and equally strong
throughout, with head of any shape and perfect, and
turn them out with great rapidity. MOORE HARDA-
Way Esq, one of the oldest and most thoroughly
practical mechanics in the country, has invented a
machine which fills all the requirements mentioned
above as 1t makes perfect bolt of any length, with
head of any shape, and will make three times as
many, in given time as any other machine in use.
The advantages this machine possesses over all others
will enable the Company using it to control the bolt
The business of these claims to superiority over
other Bolt Mach mes, has been submitted to the best
mechanics in the country, and they have all, unhes
tatingly, pronounced the machine unequalled and a
perfect success IN eUeIy particular. We append the
certificates of few of the most practical mechanics
of this city, who have made careful examination of
the machines and put their work the test
In a few words, it is claimed for Hardaways Spike
and Rivet Machines, that for chedpness. simplicity,
DURABILITY, quantity and quality OF cork turned out,
they are uneQudUed. - -
1t is proposed to organize STOCK COMPANY,
under the name and style of THE HARDAWAY
BOLT, SPIKE AND RIVET MANUFACTURING
COMPANY OF BALTIMORE" with capital stock
shares of One Hundred Dollars each.
Messrs. White Butterworth are to grant to said
Company the sole and exclusive right to manufac-
ture, use, and sell, Hardaway's Patent Bolt. Spike
and Riyet Machines in the States of Maryland Vir-
ginia, West Virginia Kentucky, Tennessee, Misss-
sppi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas. Alabama, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida.
In addition to the vast superiority of the Compa-
ny's Machines over others, there other obvious
reasons, aside from geographical location that would
secure for the Baltimore Company control of the
Southern trade. The demand for ali kinds of Bolts,
mikes RIVetS n which GOmnanV vii
manufacture. is. and must continue to be unlimited,
and the Company will undoubtedly be able to pay a
capable of demonstration.
The business of the Company may be enlarged and
extended, circumstances may render it expedient
fit is thought best part of the territory granted
to the Company can be sold, and the proceeds paid
out as dividends, The operations of the Company
will commence at once. Twelve hundred shares of
the stock remain to be taken.

Messrs. WHITE BUTTERwoRTH:
Dear Sirs-Having seen the operation of your

hope to see an establishment for the manufacture of
these indispensable articles in city, equal to the
present and growing demand Yours truly,

Messrs. WHITE 4 BUTTERwoRTH:
Tmnrnved Patent Rolf Sn;tn a y P Macb;y
and the work they turn out We could suggest no
Improvement in the bolt you make. They are per-
feet in all their parts-have no weak point They
are superior to machine made bolts we have ever
hand.
The machine is simple in construction and so made
that it is durable, and not likely to get out of repair
regard 1t as perfect success in every particular
The, rapdity with which you make bolts. depends
solely upon your facilities for feeding. From seeing
the machine work we suppose three thousand bolts
per ten hours be reasonable work for one feeder
AS the demand for bolts is unlimited we regard the
invention most valuable one.
We regard the Spike and Rivet Machines as being
Superior for the work they are intended todo they
make the best OF spikes and rivets, and turn them
them out very rapidly.
Truly yours, &C.,
