and assigns, and every of them, by myself and themselves, or by my and their
deputy or deputies, servants or agents, or such others as I, the said John Jones,
my executors, administrators, or assigns, should at any time agree with, and
no others, from time to time and at all times thereafter during the term of
years therein expressed, should and lawfully might make, use, exercise, and
vend, within that part of His said Majesty's United Kingdom called England,
His Dominion of Wales, and the Town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, my Inven-
tion of "A LIQUOR FOR PRINTING AND DYING OF COTTON, LINEN, OR WOLLEN;"
in which said Letters Patent there is contained a proviso obliging me, the
said John Jones, by an instrument in writing under my hand and seal, par-

page_text: ticularly to describe and ascertain the nature of my said Invention, and in
what manner the same is to be performed, and to cause the same to be inrolled
in His Majesty's High Court of Chancery within one calendar month next
and immediately after the date of the said recited Letters Patent, as in and
by the same, relation being thereunto had, will more fully and at large
appear.
NOW KNOW YE, that in compliance with the said proviso, I, the said
John Jones, do hereby describe and ascertain the nature of my said Inven-
tion, and the manner in which the same is to be performed, as follows (that is
to say):
Take vinegar, pyrolignous, or wood sorrcl, tartarous, or any other vegetable
acid, saturate it with lime, or any other calcarious earth; let it stand till it has
subsided, pour it off clear, heat it over a fire, and put to it as much vitroilić,
sulphic, nitric, or marine salt of lead, as will seperate the whole of the oily
betuminous or extractive parts or matter. When they are seperated, let it
stand till it has subsided; when clear, run it off, and put to it as much alum
or copprass as will seperate the lime and lead; and thus the printing or dying
liquor is made.
In witness whereof, I, the said John Jones, have hereunto set my
hand and seal, the Sixth day of February, in the forty-fifth year of
the reign of our said Sovereign Lord George the Third, by the grace
of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland King,
Defendant of the Faith, &c., and in the year of our Lord One thousand
SHOP THE CLAYCE
