Crenshaw. f«.r the purpose of manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also inform them that I have engaged Mr. Crenshaw, who will superintend the manufacturing of them.— My gins shall be made of the best materials, and I can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins sold in the Southern States, taking the workman ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to make cotton equal to any made on any other gins in the Southern States, giving the true staple of the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and clear of moats. My gins will be delivered at the purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant ed to give ample satisfaction. All orders addressed to the subscriber will meet with prompt attention; repairing done in good style i and at short notice. All old gins of 10 inch saws 1 , will repair and put them on improved principles, j and also warrant them to make as good cotton us any of the improved gins, and at a much less cost ; than a new gin. J. D. HAMMACK. Crawfordville, Ga., May 4. I will say to the planters who may favor Mr. Hammack with their patronage I will exert all the ability I have in superintending the shop; and every gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order, and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered ; to the public; and from my long experience in the ! business, 1 know the gins cannot be surpassed, al j though agents from other shops have resorted to the contemptible practice ot slandering me and | saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not true. In full confirmation of what I sav, I offer a few certificates from gentlemen who have used mv gins, and could furnish manv more of this kind, if required. ts. R. CRENSHAW. Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for i two years, and 1 very cheerfully recommend it to ! the Cotton planters of Oglethorpe and other coun ties of Georgia. It turns off sufficiently fast to , make good Cotton-—it being 50 saws—will throw | out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at each of my sales than other sales of those days, and it has been pronounced by those considered competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully. F. MERIWETHER. April 21th, 1817. Oglethorpe Co., April 22,18-17 I have used for the last three years a machine that was mad© by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford vilie. I consider it one of the best Gins I have ever seen. Two small mules will gin, with a great deal of ease, three bales per day, and I do not think there -8 a >fin in Georgia that can excel it in making fine cotton. In fact, Mr. Crenshaw- has I sold a great, many gins in this county and Elbert, i and 1 think tha< every man who lias purchased is perfectly satisfied. Ail of his gins which have been sold in this county, and they are not a few run light, ! pick fast, and what is better than all, when the cot ton is carried.to market it sells for the very highest price C. ts. MERIWETHER. Cra wfordville, May 4, 131-7. Mr. J. D. Hammack- —1 certify that I bought of S. R. Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saw anti friction Cotton Gin, which perform* well and makes as good cotton as th« Carver Gin, in mv opinion. P. G. RIIOME. This is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. S. R. Crenshaw’s improved aati-friction Cotton Gins last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I have ever used. I think it superior to the Carver Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true staple of the article, and gins 9I»U lbs. ol clean cot ton per day, and runs verv light. ’ C. R. Z VCHERY.
