Syllabus

<p>Patents — Infringement—Unhatrino Machines.</p> <p>The Sutton patent, No. 383,258, for a machine for removing the hairs from fur shins, claim 8, is not infringed by a machine which does not contain either of the last two elements of the combination of the claim, which are a rotary separating brush, constituting the essential and novel feature of the invention, and mechanism for moving the same, nor anything which can fairly be called an equivalent therefor, but employs, instead of a brush, a metallic comb, which does not revolve, but remains in a fixed position.</p>
