Please find below, a communication from The Ex- aminer in the matter of your application for patent for Feeding Hogs, filed May 33d, 1868. Very respectfully, Benj. Brown, Commissioner, Examiner's Room, No. 2114. Your application has been examined, and the first clause of the claim found wanting in patentable nov- elty. A substantial anticipation is shown in a hog suspended by his hind feet in a butcher's stall, for this is certainly a pachyderm in a vertical position. If this clause is erased, the other clauses may re- ceive favorable consideration. A. Captious, Examiner. Amendment in the Matter of John Smith's Ap- plication for Patent. To the Commissioner of Patents : Sir :—In the matter of my application for patent for " Improved Method
