Crenshaw, for the purpose of manufacturing COTTON GINS, and woffid also I inform them that I have engaged Mr. Crenshaw, who will superintend the manufacturing of them. his Gins shall be made of the best materials, and 1 can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins | now in the Southern States, taking the workman- j ship in consideration. I will warrant mv gins to l make cotton equal to any made on any other gins ; in the Southern States, giving the true staple of j the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and clear ot moats. My gins will he delivered at the purchaser s residence tree of charge and warrant ed to give ample satisfaction. Ail orders addressed to the subscriber will meet with prompt attention; repairing done in good style and at short notice. All old gins of 10 inch saws I will repair and put them on improved principles, and also warrant them to make as good cotton as any of the improved gins, and at a much less cost than a new gin. J. D. HAMMACK. Crawfordviile, Ga., May 4. I will say to the planters who may favor Mr. j Ilamraack with their patronage 1 wili exert all the ability I have in superintending the shop; and every | gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order, I and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered I to the public; and from my long experience in the ; business, I know the gins cannot be surpassed, al- ' though agents from other shops have resorted to 1 the contemptible practice of slandering me 1 saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not I true. In full confirmation of what I say, I offer a j few certificates from gentlemen who have* used my | gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if 1 required. S. R. CRENSHAW. Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for two years, and I 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 300 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at each of Thy 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. Y'ours, very respectfully. F. MERIWETHER. April 24th, 1847. Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1847 I hat e used for the last three years a machine that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford viile. I consider it one of the best Gin* I have ever seen. Two small mules will gin, w-ith a orcat deal ol ease, three bales per day, and I do not think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in making fine cotton. In fact, Mr. Crenshaw has sold a great many gins in this county and Elbert, and I think that every man who has purchased is perfectly satisfied. All oi 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 col on is carried to market it sells for the verv hio-hest price C. S. MERIWETHER. Chaweurdville, May 4, 1847. Mr. J. D. Hammock —l certify that I bought of S. R. Crenshaw, last vear, a forty-five saw anti friction Cotton Gin, winch performs well and makes as good cotton as the Carver Gin, in mv opinion. p. g.Rhome. ' * *7 This is to certify that T purchased one of Mr. S. R. Crenshaw's improved anti-friction Cotton Gins last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I have ever used. 1 think it superior to the Carver I Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true i staple of the article, and gins 930 lbs. of clean cot- : ton per day, and runs very light. C. R. 2ACHERY. Morgan co. ; Bth May, 1847.
