page_text: TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS SHALL COME, I, JOHN
TYLOR, of Wood Street, Cheapside, in the City of London, Brazier, send
greeting.
WHEREAS His most Sacred Majesty King George the Third, by His
Letters Patent, under the Great Seal of Great Britain, bearing date the
Twentieth day of January, in the twenty-third year of His reign, did give and
grant unto me, the said John Tylor, special licence that I, the said John
Tylor, during the term of years therein expressed, should and lawfully might
use, exercise, and vend, within England, Wales, and the Town of Berwick-upon-
Tweed, my "INVENTION WHEREBY TEA AND COFFEE URNS, AND OTHER COPPER
VESSELS, ARE SECURELY TINNED OR LINED, AND ARE NOT SUBJECT TO CORRODE OR
BECOME VERDIGREASE, AND WHEREBY SUCH TEA AND COFFEE URNS AND OTHER VESSELS
ARE RENDERED MORE ELEGANT, COMPLEAT, AND USEFUL;" in which said Letters
Patent there is contained a proviso that if I, the said John Tylor, should not
particularly describe and ascertain the nature of my said Invention, and in
what manner the same was to be performed, by an instrument in writing under
my hand and seal, and cause the same to be inrolled in His Majesty's High
Court of Chancery within four calendar months next and immediately after
the date of the said Letters Patent, that then the said Letters Patent should
determine and be void, as in and by the said Letters Patent, relation being
thereunto had, may more fully appear.

page_text: NOW KNOW YE, that in compliance with and in pursuance of the said
proviso in the said in part recited Letters Patent contained, I have in the
margin of these Presents, or hereunto annexed, set forth several Drawings of
my said Invention, and also a description thereof; and I, the said John
Tylor, by this Instrument in writing under my hand and seal, do ascertain and
more particularly describe the nature of my said Invention in the said Letters
Patent mentioned, and declare that the same is to be performed in manner and
form following:-
I cause the outward case or body of the tea or coffee urn to be prepared, as
described in the aforesaid Drawings of my Invention, of copper or any other
metal to receive my new-invented inside or lining; and after such outward
case or body is so prepared, I then cause a seperate vessel, namely, my new-
invented inside or lining, as described in the aforesaid Drawings at Figure 5,
to be made and prepared of copper, or any other metal or composition, to fit
the outward case or body of the tea or coffee urn; and after I have caused
such seperate vessel, inside, or lining to be made and prepared in manner
aforesaid, I do then cause the same to be tinned and planished or plated with
any other metal or composition on the inside thereof; or otherwise I cause
the said new-invented vessel, inside, or lining to be made of copper, or of some
metal or composition which has been already plated or covered with silver;
and after the said new-invented vessel, inside, or lining is tinned and planished
bright, or plated in manner aforesaid, I cause the same to be introduced into
the said outward case or body of the tea or coffee urn, in the manner described
in the said Drawings at Figure VI. and VII. And I cause the said new-
invented vessel, inside, or lining to be fixed or soldered into the outward case or
body of the tea or coffee urn; and after having so fixed in such new-invented
vessel, inside, or lining, I cause the cock, screw, or valve, and also the tube or
chininey for the heater or lamps in tea and coffee urns, to be fixed and soldered
into such urns. And in respect to the top, or cover, or neck of the tea or coffice
urns required to be tinned or lined, I cause the same to be tinned or lined
with the same materials, and exactly after the same manner, as I cause such
tea or coffee urns to which it belongs to be tinned or lined, as herein-before
mentioned. And I have in the aforesaid Drawings and Figures more par-
ticularly described the method of tinning or lining the top, cover, or neck of
such tea or coffee urns. And I, the said John Tylor, do hereby declare that by
such new-invented inside or lining for tea or coffee urns, such tea or coffee
urns are more securely lined or tinned, rendered more elegant, and are not so
subject to corrode or become verdigrease as such tea and coffee urns are when
tinned after the common method, in regard such my new-invented inside or

page_text: lining, after the same is tinned and planished bright or plated as aforesaid, do
not (like the common method of tinning tea and coffee urns) require to be
heated in the fire, so as to injure such lining, planishing, or plating as aforesaid;
and I declare that I mean and intend that the said Drawings shall be taken as
part and parcel of these Presents; and I do further by this my Deed declare,
that my said Invention is applied unto all sorts of copper and other vessels in
the same manner that the same is applied to tea and coffee urns as above
mentioned.
In witness whereof, I, the said John Tylor, have hereunto set my hand
and seal, this Sixteenth day of May in the twenty-third year of the
reign of our Sovereign Lord George the Third, by the grace of God
of Great Britain, France, and Ireland King, Defender of the Faith,
&c. and in the year of our Lord One thousand seven hundred and.
eighty-three.
AND BE IT REMEMBERED, that on the Sixteenth day of May, in the
year of our Lord 1783, the aforesaid John Tylor came before our said Lord
the King in His Chancery, and acknowledged the Specification aforesaid,
and all and every thing therein contained and specified, in form above written.
And also the Specification aforesaid was stampt according to the tenor of the
Statutes made in the sixth year of the reign of the late King and Queen W
