A GRA ND E MAEIJ UE, HEELER WILSON’S SEWING a MACHINES. , I-- ' Opinions op the Press The difference between this Machine—the now WHEELER and WlLSON—perfected as here shown, and the original Wheeler aiid Wilson* is as great as that between the latter and the first serving; machine ever made.”— Scientific American, January 13, -1877.. > , “The new WHEELER, and WILSON IMPROVED MACHINE is so beautifully; adjusted that it can sew through several thicknesses of tin and cloth, in layers without the slightest difficulty, and, in fact, can be applied to any purpose, from the,making of harness, traces by the saddler to the making by a lady of her sweetheart’s handkerchief with her own hair—very poetical, perhaps, hut perfectly tare.’ The Sydney Town and Country Journal, April 28, 1877. ■’ : “The range and capacity of the new WHEELER and WILSON MACHINE has been; increased, : so’ tl. it’.at otre moment the heaviest leather work can ho sewn, and at the next perfect stitching done with .human hair, the only alteration required to bring about this extraordinary result being the changing of the needle and the' thread.' The .working, parts have been constructed with so much simplicity, that the slightest touch of the foot on the treadle ' will pet .it, going at a rapid rate. Several tests’were mado'-at the establishment of Messrs.-Long’and’Co. yesterday, and in every, instance the machines fully upheld the important advantages claimed for- them. Themost astonishing feat of sewing six layers of; heavy tweed with four of tin, together was ac-, complished. The machines are well worthy of inspection.”— Aye, April 13, 1877.
