PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or Appertaining to the Manufacture of Soap.
I, WILLIAM GEORGE SMITH of 20 Eden Street, Kingston-on-Thames in the county
of Surrey, soap and candle manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
This my invention has reference to al new and improved soap, and to the
manufacture of soap, and by which invention I attain the following advantages:
Linen washed by the use of my improved soap need not be soaked over night, and
consequently the linen lasts much longer; the linen is deodorized and purified; three
times the amount of clothes, etc. can be washed in the same way as heretofore in
a given time; two boils of linen can be washed in the same water; and there is
no hand rubbing required.
My said invention consists in incorporating with common yellow soap a proportion
of turpentine and ammonia, substantially as and in the quantities hereinafter set forth.
In the process of manufacture I make yellow soap in the usual way, which, when
removed from the copper is placed in a churn or mixer. I then add to 9 cwt. of soap
90 lbs. weight of turpentine and 28 lbs. of ammonia; the whole being churned until
thoroughly incorporated.
The mixture is then taken out of the churn and put into the usual frame to cool.
Dated this Twenty-eighth day of March 1889.

Improvements in or Appertaining to the Manufacture of Soap.
I, WILLIAM GEORGE SMITH, of 20, Eden Street, Kingston-on-Thames, in the county
of Surrey, Soap and Candle Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
of
This my invention has reference to a new and improved soap, and to the manufacture
soap,
and by which invention I attain the following advantages:Linen washed by
the use of my improved soap need not be soaked overnight, and consequently the linen
lasts much longer; the linen is deodorized and purified; three times the amount of
clothes, etc. can be washed in the same way as heretofore in a given time; two boils
of linen can be washed in the same water; and there is no hand-rubbing required.
My said invention consists in incorporating with common yellow soap a proportion
of turpentine and ammonia, substantially as and in the quantities hereinafter set forth.
In the process of manufacture I make yellow soap in the usual way, which,

9 cwt. of soap 90 lbs. weight of turpentine and 28 lbs. of ammonia, the whole being
churned until thoroughly incorporated. The mixture is then taken out of the churn
and put into the usual frame to cool. The above proportions are given as an example,
and although I prefer to follow same in the manufacture of my new and improved
soup I do not limit myself to the use thereof but claim the combination of turpen-
tine and ammonia in any suitable proportions.
