dividually known as established Letter Founders,
that (hey have now formed a co-partner.-hip in said
business and hope from their united skill and expe
rience. to be able to give full satisfaction to all who
may favor them with orders.
The introduction of machinery, in place of the te
dious and unhealthy practice of casting type by hand,
long a desideratum by the European and American
Founders, was, by American ingenuity, and a heavy
expenditure of time and money, on the part of our
senior partner, first successfully accomplished. Ex
tensive use of the machine cast letter, has fully tested
and established its superiority in every particular,
over that cast by the old process.
Tbe letter foundry business will hereafter be car
ried on by the parties before named, under the firm of
White, Hager & Co.—Their specimen exhibits a
complete series f rom Diamond o 14 lines Pica.--
