Description: |
FX patents are fractional X patents. This patent is #1681 1/2 and it was probably missed during the original numbering of X patents because the inventor received two patents on the same day (see also patent 1,690X, which also provides some information on the inventor's work on steamboats). This patent's drawing survives but the specification was lost in the 1836 fire at the Patent Office. |
