part of a letter dated
Aug 17 1773
Thursday eveng.
Extract from an advertisement in the Gazetteer of 28 July 1773.
Premiums given by the Society of Arts Jc. dated April 11th 1773
No 22. Machine for preserving lives in case of Fire.
For a Machine superior to any hitherto in use for preserving
the lives of persons in case of fire; to be deliver'd the first
Tuesday in Novr 1773; the Gold Medal or £30.
N.B. Strength and cheapness in the Machine will be
consider'd as part of it's merit.
Compliat Books of Premiums may be seen at every
Post Office in Great-Britain &c. === Thus far tho'
Advertisement _______________
I have no notion of a man's being precluded from
a Patent by the acceptance of one of these Premiums.
It is possible this may be a condition annexed to the
granting of the premiums in some cases, not to
apply for a Patent — I mean for aught I know to
the contrary — though I never heard of any such thing.
This I am certain of, that the bare acceptance of
such a Premium if no such condition be enter'd
into; cannot by Law disable a man from obtaining
any Patent he might otherwise.
_______________________________
Thursday evening. 26th.
I wrote word by Tuesday's Post to my Uncle that
we shall be with him on Monday if the weather
permitt, and to Mr Mulford that we shall be with
him some day the latter end of the week.
I shall therefore expect to see you on Sunday
