Synopsis
Excerpt from Petition of Stephen R. Parkhurst, for Extension of His Patent for Ginning Cotton, and Burring Wool
I had been a practical woolen manufacturer for many years, having been brought up at the business and, for some years prior to the date of my original patent, had been more or less engaged in experiments, endeavoring to perfect machinery which would completely remove the burrs from wool and the seeds from cotton.
