2106f. Improved Jacquard Machine worked by paper 

 cards. Bennet Woodcraft, F.R.S. 



The improvement in the jacquard machine consists in its being so con-

 elevates others, whereas in the machine invented by Jacquard, and called 

 after him, none of the warp threads were depressed, the opening for the 

 shuttle being made by elevating some of the warp threads only. (B. "Wood- 

 croft's Patent, 1838.)
