As soon as by boiling with one ton of water the different ingredients
specified in No. 1 have been dissolved the stuff has to be filtered. The
clear part of the liquid only has then to be put into the boiler again
and brought to boiling point again. During the boiling the parts
specified in No. 2 are to be admixed, and the mixture thus formed is
then boiled until a clear substance has been produced. Ton-natron
is made of burnt potash and soda; it is manufactured like caustic soda.
The proportions of the ingredients above set forth may be to some
extent varied.
What I claim is, the manufacture of liquid soap substantially as
above described.
In witness whereof, I, the said Jonathan Scharr, have hereunto
set my hand and seal, this Twelfth day of April, in the year of
our Lord One thousand eight hundred and seventy.
JONATHAN SCHARR. (L.S.)
