IMPROVEMENTJN"CREEK-PIECES AND SHROUD-YOKES FOR SHIPS IIRIGrG-INYGl The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the name,
Tol all whom 'itfmay concern Be it known that I, Hanni TownsEND, of the city and county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented Improved Cheek-Pieces and Shroud- Yokes for Ships Masts; and I `do hereby declare the following to be a full and correct description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in wllich- Figurel represents a mast-,head and trestle-tree with the improved cheek-piece and shrond-yokes bearing upon elastic packing, and attached to the `shrouds made fast to the trestletree, crois cast on the same when the trestle-tree is made of metal.
Figure 3 represents the cheekpiece, which is hollow on the' back side to admit air between it and the mast.l
` The nature of my inventionv consists of making a cheek-piece for` a masthead of iron or any suitable metal, instead of wood, as heretofore, and iron yokes around the mast-head to hold the,` shrouds, Yinstead of binding them around the mast in the old way, and
also', of elastic packing applied to the bolster or trestletree to ease the strain of a sudden surge on the shrouds. i
To enable others .to understand m"y invention, I refer to the drawings, in which- The object of this invention is to preserve the mast,
whereas the Old kind of cheek-piece and bolster are blocks of wood, which absorb the water and .rot the' mast. f
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure `by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination ofthe metallic Ventilating cheek- -piece and bolster, as described, for the purpose set forth.
2. The shroud-yolge scribed.
3. The elastic packing, in combinatioulwith a me- A tallic cheek-piece or trestle-tree, for the purpose set forth.
The abovespeccaton of my said invention signed andwitnessed at Philadelphia, this' Y Witnesses: HENRY TOWNSEND.
