Description: |
| Be it known that I, Alexander M. Wilson, of Rhinebeck, in the county of Dutchess and State of New York, have invented an Improved Machine for Cutting Grass and Grain; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, this description or specification being intended as a substitute for that upon which Letters Patent of the United States were granted unto me dated the 30th day of December, in the year 1835, the said Letters Patent having been deposited by me in the Patent Office on the 29th day of November, 1836 (patent # 9302 1/2), and, as I am informed and verily believe, were destroyed by fire, together with the original specification and drawings thereof, on the 15th day of December of that year.
In my grass and grain cutter, the horses, or other animals, by which it is driven, are placed in a suitable frame, or shafts, behind the machine, as in other machines for that purpose previously constructed; which frame, or shafts, is seen at A, in the accompanying drawing. These shafts work, or swivel, upon a pin B, at the hind head of the machine, by which means the direction of the machine may be changed, by changing the position of the animals in driving. The frame of this machine may be put together in various ways: which need not be described. C, C, are the two ground, or driving, wheels upon which the machine is to run, and which are firmly attached to the axle, by which the gathering wheel and the knives, or cutters, are to driven.
