HARDAWAY'S, BOLT, SPIKE
Riyet Manufacturing Company,
OF BAE.TI8EO RE.

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
OF the attention OF capitalists.
While many bolts are made by machines construct
ed ior that purpose all bolts that are designed to be
perfect throughout, Of equal strength and uniformity
have heretofore been made by hand and at great cx
pense. The best Bolt Machines that have been used
are the bolts made perfect in shape or strength
The great deSideratum has been to get a machine
that would make bolt ana form and equally strong
throughout, with hend OF any shape and perfect and
turn them out with great rapidity. MOORE HARDA-
WAY, ESD, one of the Oldest and most thoroughly
practical mechanics IN the country, has invented a
machine which fills all the requirements mentioned
above, as it makes perfect bolt of any length with
head Of any shape, and VIII make three times rs
many IN a given time, as any other machine in use
The advantages this machine possesses over all
will enable the Company using it to control the bolt
The business of these claims to superiorftv oyer
other Bolt Machines has been submitted to the best
mechanics IN tue country and they have all, urheSi
tatingiy, pronounced the machine unequalled, and
perfect success IN e0erg 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 severe

It is proposed to organize STOCK COMPANY.
BOLT SPIKE AND RfVEF MA VAN 4 fI1a y &
COMPANY OF BALTIMORE" with capitai stocl,
Of Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars, in
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, HardawayS Patent Bolt, Spike
and Rivet Machines in the States of MARYLAND Vir-
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 would
secure for the baltimore Company control of the
southern trade. The demand for all kinds of Bolts
oplheS hiNel: Nuts Nc:, when the Company viii
manufacture Is and must continue to be unlimited,
and the Company will undoubtedly be able to pay a
= per cent dividend the first year; that it can do so is
capable OF demonstration.
The business Of the Company may be enlarged and
extended, Us circumstances may render it expedent
II It Is thought best any part of the territory granted
out as dividends. The operations of the Company
Will commence at once. Twelve hundred shares Of
the stock remain to be taken.

Dedr Slrs Having seen the operation of your
Bolt and Spike Machines, it gives me pleasure to say
think it fully merits all that is claimed for it.

Of Hayward, Bartlett y Co.
BALTIMORE, Jan. %, 1866.
Messrs. WHITE & BUTTERwoRTH:
Gentlemen We have examined your "Hardaway's
Improved Patent Bolt, Spike and Riyet Machines
and the work they turn out We could suggest no
improvement in the bolts you make. They are per
feet in all their partS-have no weak point They
are superior to any machine made bolts we have ever
seen, and equal, if not superior to any made by
hand.
The machine is simple in construction and so made
that it is durable and not likely to get of repair
We regard it perfect success in every particular
The rapidity 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 to be reasonable work for one feeder
As the demand for bolts is unlimited, we regard the
invention as a most valuable one.
We regard the Spike and Riyet Machines as being
superior for the work they intended odo they
make the best Of spikes and rivets, and turn them
them out very rapidly.
