STANCHION, Oil PUNT-GUN. 



Mr. Long, of Andover ; besides journeymen in my 

 own employ ; and consequently as so many artificers 

 have been separately occupied in completing it, I 

 may safely defy any one of them to turn put pre- 

 cisely the same kind of article, until they have seen, 

 and had explained to them, this gun in its finished 

 state. 



Since the 4th edition, I have tried the gun and 

 punt, in every possible way ; and no plan that I had 

 ever before seen was worthy of being compared to 

 this.
