PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
A Combined Pegged and Sewn Boot or Pegged and Screwed Boot.
I JOHN WILLIAMSON of Earls Barton in the County of Northampton Shoe manu-
facturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates more particularly to improvements in the manufacture of boots
and shoes-Previously boots and shoes solely pegged in the waist on iron lasts have
been found to give way in the waist during wear, in consequence of the abrupt
clinching of the pegs on the Iron, not being able to withstand the spring and pressure
from the instep--Now by my invention this defect is remedied and the boots and
shoes are of greater durability, have more elasticity and comfort in their wear.
In carrying out my invention I cause a boot or shoe to be pegged, I then have the
same sewn or screwed by hand or machine inside of the pegging in the waist and on
either side of the shank from the heel to the ball of the boot in channel or aloft thus
doubly securing the sole (as shewn in the annexed drawing) to the upper part of the
boot and rendering it next to impossible for the boot to give way in the waist or
instep and at the same time provides for the wearer greater comfort from the absence
of too much pressure in the instep, and are of greater durability and have more
elasticity in the wear.

facturer, 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:
My invention relates more particularly to improvements in the manufacture of boots
and shoes. Previously boots and shoes solely pegged in the waist on iron lasts have
been found to give way in the waist during wear, in consequence of the abrupt
clinching of the pegs on the Iron, not being able to withstand the spring and pressure
from the instep. Now by my invention this defect is remedied and the boots and shoes
are of greater durability, have more elasticity and comfort in their wear.
In carrying out my invention I cause a boot or shoe to be pegged, I then have the
same sewn or screwed by hand or machine inside of the pegging in the waist and on
either side of the shank from the heel to the ball of the boot in channel or aloft thus
doubly securing the sole (as shown in the annexed drawing) to the upper part of the
hoot and rendering it next to impossible for the boot to give way in the waist or
instep and at the same time provides for the wearer greater comfort from the absence
of too much pressure in the instep and are of greater durability and lave more
elasticity in the wear.
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 :-
Firstly The method of manufacturing a combined pegged and sewn boot or
pegged and screwed boot as described and represented in the accompanying drawing.
Secondly-The manufacture of the combined pegged and sewn boot or pegged and
screwed boot as described and represented in the accompanying drawing.
:
Thirdly The manufacture and use of the combined pegged and sewn boot, or
pegged and screwed boot (as hereinbefore described).
