Description: |
| Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. There are no patent drawings available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
"A right hand screw is fixed upon one end of each rail, and a left hand screw upon the opposite end; to receive these, plates, with female screws, are let into the posts. The operation is plain, and it undoubtedly was once a novelty; when, we know not, but do know that it has been patented more than once."
