The STEEPLECHASE is fully protected by United States
Patent No. 1826215, issued October 6, 1931, and with other
mechanical patents pending. It is further protected by United
States design patent No. 87840, together with other patents
now in process in the principal foreign countries.

This matter has already been referred to our attorneys on
behalf of ourselves, and also on behalf of the Hutchinson Engi­

Engineering Company and Mr. Kirk shall immediately be
brought into force to stifle these unfair tactics.
The trade is therefore notified that any manufacturer, job­

marily dealt with.
. . Beware of dealing with infringers . You can avoid legal
entanglements only by purchasing the genuine STEEPLE­
CHASE through KEENEY AND SONS or their authorized
jobbers.
