page_text: I CARRÉ FULTON of N° 3 Caroline Street in the County of Middlesex Major
in the Durhain Light Infantry do hereby declare the nature of the said Invention
for "AN IMPROVED METHOD OF IMPARTING MILITARY INSTRUCTIONS TO INFANTRY
to be as follows:-
"
This Invention relates to an improved method of imparting instructions to
infantry in such branches of military art as they are required to be cognizant of.
For this purpose I print the instructions upon woven material in such a form
that it may be used as a pocket handkerchief whereby the attention of the user
will be constantly directed to the printed matter thereon whilst the article itself
will be durable and if lost or destroyed is sure to be replaced as soon as possible
thereby presenting a great advantage over the book or pamphlet form which has
hitherto been adopted.

I, CARRÉ FULTON, of No 3 Caroline Street in the County of Middlesex, Major
in the Durham Light Infantry, do hereby declare the nature of the said Invention
for "AN IMPROVED METHOD OF IMPARTING MILITARY INSTRUCTION TO INFANTRY
a communication to me from abroad by Thomas John Haymes, of Gibralter, and
in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:—
This Invention relates to an improved method of imparting instructions to
infantry in such branches of military art as they are required to be cognizant of.
For this purpose I print the instructions upon woven material in such a form
that it may be used as a pocket-handkerchief whereby the attention of the user
will be constantly directed to the printed matter thereon whilst the article itself
will be durable and if lost or destroyed is sure to be replaced as soon as possible,
thereby presenting a great advantage over the book or pamphlet form which has
hitherto been adopted.
And in order that my Invention may be more fully understood I have hereto
annexed a sheet of drawings illustrative thereof.
The handkerchief may be of any suitable size and material, the centre portion A
being occupied by details of the rifle and ammunition to which may be added letters of
reference and the names of the various parts. Around this may be arranged diagrams
shewing the trumpet calls with which it is advisable that the user should be
acquainted; also instructions in signalling, and drawings illustrative of the attitude
to be taken up, or precautions to be observed by the soldier when left to his own
recourses, such drawings being further explained by means of printed matter
'apropos" thereof, which printed matter may be inserted around the outer margin
of the handkerchief. I do not, of course, limit myself to any particular arrange-
ment or selection of matter as the subject is obviously capable of being treated in
a great variety of ways, but

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is
The method of imparting military instructions to infantry, herein described and
partially illustrated by the accompanying drawing.
