Description:
An improvement on Thompson's Nov. 2, 1880 patent (no. 234,091). The patent adds a friction spring inside the moveable jaw, and a detachable supplemental hammer piece. These features are not normally found on the wrenches bearing this patent date. Some wrenches were produced that match the appearance of Thompson's Canadian patent CA-13,865.

See also Canadian patent CA-21,633 for another friction spring applied to the movable jaw of this type of wrench.
