81 regard Mr.. Eddy as one of the most capable
and successful practitioners with whom have had
official intercourse. CHARLES MASON,

81 have no hesitation IN assuring inventors that
they cannot employ man more competent and
trustworthy, and more capable of putting their ap-
pcations in a form to secure for them an early and
favorable consideration at the Patent ONCE

Late Commissioner of Patents"
"Nfr r. H. EDDY has made for me THIRTEEN
applications, in all but ONE of which patents have
been granted and that one is now pending. Such
proof OF great talent and ability on his
part leads me to recommend all inventors TO apply
10 him to procure their patents as they may be sure
of having the most faithful attention bestowed on
their cases and at very reasonable charges.
