[Mr. Watt says the new Valves to the Engine are the greatest improvement ever made in the Valve way: the mercury stood at 28 and the Strokes 14 per min. Mr. Eginton thinks that John Harrison (brother of Joseph) may be useful in getting a plated silversmith or two from Abdy’s [London], for it is now a good trade and we are overstocked with orders, but he says from real silversmiths the Lord deliver us, for the Salts that Talbot has ordered (like Lord Craven’s) which are sold for 3/6 per oz. fashion including glasses, cannot be made for the money.] |
