Dear sir:AteI q careful observation OF the effects
the Anti Incrusator, applied TO our boilers we take
pleasure in making the following report :-On the 7th
instant we opened all boilers having your AntIn-
crustator in them.
l. Foundry Boiler.-This boiler was badly coated with
scale e-sxeenths inch thick and at the time
of the application of the Instruments; we find now
about two thirds Ofthe scale removed and the remain
der comparatively loose.
2. Forge BoierThis boiler hnd entirely clean and
deposit on the sheets whatever.
Erecting Shop Boier-This boiler is not yet cleaned
The scale obtained in considerable quantities from the
hand holes ana in much larger quantities than usual
and the work Is still progressing From our observa-
tons 10 this date, enabled to say that we feel
every confidence in ts in doing all that YOU
claim for 1t in your printed circular We have had them
in in these boilers about three m nths We find
the ptOn OF fuel still diminishing from what il
previous to the application, which attribute to
the action of your Ant-IncrusatOr.
Respectfully yours,

PHILADELPHIA, April Ill, 1866
John c. Cresson Esq. President Of the american Anti
lncrustaton Company
Lear -It is with pleasure we say to You that the
Ant-Incustator placed in the boiler OF the steamship
Norfolk !" OF Clyde's Line OF Philadelphia and Rich
mond steamers Thursday, arch 20 1866, has done
all you claimed it in published Since
its introduction have run trip from this city
Richmond, and opening the boiler at Richmond VIC
found considerable loose scale, which was removed.
on reaching Philadelphia the boiler examined
again. and mucn larger quantity OF scale, some OF IL
from one-sixteenh to one quarter OF an mch in thick
ness. was taken out On this trip were not com
PEELED to pick and 10y the ola proces the boilers
at Richmond Philadelphia, as has always been re-
QuIred heretofore, the AntIncTusator having per-
formed the work better than ever done before ana with
out trouble expense, risk IL not only removes the
scale nom the hues and sheets of the boilers but has
actually removed old scale from the crown sheets in
such nlaces and pprs of the boiler rendered pre-
viously Impossible clean owing to the braces and
stays over said crown sheet
Our boiler to-day is comparatively Clean and better
fitted TO so to again, without any further cleaning,
than at any previous time after cleaning in the old
way We consider the AMI Inclustator OF very great
Importance to all boilers going steamships and
from experience, feel convinced It Is the only thing
use that win clean marine boilers and keep them free
from scale.
Very truly yours,
