HARDAWAY'S BOLT, SPIKE
AND
Rivet Manufacturing Company,
OF MORE.

| The enormous profits resulting from the manufac-
| ture of BOLTS, NUTS, SPIKES and RIVETS, and
the unlimited demand for those articles renders any
Improvement IN machinery for making them worthy
While many bolts made by machines construct
al GSats FEAT aa a6 dGfTPsd be
nave heretofore been made by hand and at great ex
pense. The best Bolt Machines that have been used
make on an average less than 1000 bolts per day nor
are the bolts SO made perfect in shape strength.
The great desideratum has been to get a machine
that would make bolt uni form and eg,qiIv stron0
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
machine which fills all the requirements mentioned
above, as 1t makes perfect bolt of any length with
mead OF any shape, and will make three times as
many, IN given time, as any other machine in USE
IEe advantages inns machine possesses over all others
Will enable the Company using it to control the bolt
trade of the country.
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 unhesi-
tatingly, pronounced the machine unequaled, and a
perfect success III eUeTg 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 to the Severest test
In a few words 1t is claimed for Hardaway's Spike
and Riyet Machines, that for cheapness simplicity
Gb% gre ro aaanty and quality of sorb turned out
It is proposed to organize a STOCK COMPANY,
B BPdeF 81 Sh5 Rte # TAE
COMPANY OF BALTIMORE" with a capital stock
Of Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars, in
. Messrs. White Il Butterworth are to grant to said
Company the sole and exclusive right to Inanufac-
ture, use and sell, Hardaway's Patent Bolt, Spike
and Riyet Machines in the States Of Maryland Viz.
ginia, West Virginia, Kentucky. Tennessee Missis-
sippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Alabama, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida
In addition to the vast superiority of the Compa-
nys Machines over others, there are other obvious
reasons aside from geographical location that woud
secure for the Baltimore Company control of the
Southern trade. The demand for all kinds of Bolts
Spikes Rivets, Nuts. &C., which the Company will
mqnUt1rturn mr. aOp finn 70 h.,
and the Company will undoubtedly be able to pay a
25 cent dividend the first year, that it can do SO is
capable of demonstration.
The business of the Company may be enlarged and
extended, as circumstances may render it expedient
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 & BUTTERwoRrH:
:, Dear STs Having seen the operation of your
B4t and Spike I Machines it gives me pleasure say
hope to see an establishment for the manufacture of
these indispensable articles in our city, equal to the
present and growing demand Yours I # TWIN, truly
OF Hayward, Bartlett & Co.
BALTIMORE, Jan. %, 1866.
Messrs. WHITE & BUTTERwORTH:
Gentlemen We have examined your "Hardaway's
improved Patent Bolt, Spike and Rivet Machines"
and the work they turn out. We could suggest no
improy ement in the bolts you make. They are per-
feet in all their parts-have no weak point. They
are superior to machine made bolts we have ever
SEEM and equal. if not superior to any made by
hand. ~ ~
The machine is simple in construction and so made
that 1t is durable, and not likely to get out of repair
We regard it as perfect success in every particular
The rapidity with which you make bolts denends
solely upon your facilities for feeding. From seeing
the machine work, we suppose three thousand bolts
per ten hours to be reasonable work for one feeder
AS the demand for bolts is unlimited we regard the
invention a most valuable one WV
We regard the Spike and Rivet Machines as being
superior for the work they intended todo as thew
make the best of spikes and rivets and turn them
them out very rapidly. -- 'NeH1
Truly yours, &c.
