SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN. Jan. Goth 1862
''The simplicity and accuracy of its mechanism
prevent its dropping stitches, to which many 9th
er machines are liable, and which has hitherto
brought the ''chain stitch into disrepute. One
cannot but admire the beauty aud accuracy of its
movements, and the entire absence of all noise,
even when running at the rate of 1000 stitches
and upward per minute. This alone must prove
a great Recommendation to it. Another merit is
the good Workmanship. The parts are made in
terchangeable so that in the event of accident to
the machine, any part can be replaced at n tri-
fling cost. II is, indeed, ''mechanical wonder
"a household necessity p
