During the past few months he has turned out eighteen high-grade instruments. He carves the wood by hand, mixes his own varnish and turns out every single bit of the instrument by hand. The Woodstock Typewriter factory is again operating full time and adding to its payroll almost daily. The factory hopes soon to be turning out their product at the rate of 120 machines a day.

Death is believed to have been due to paralysis of the stomach or the rupture of an artery. W.
