"Fairfield Ledger", Nov. 1, 1866, Pg. 3, Col. 1

PATENT HAND LOOM -- We observe, by the "American Artizan", that Daniel MENDENHALL, of our city, has secured a patent on his hand loom, receiving a patent for every principle claimed. He also secured a patent for his worm destroyer on trees. His loom is pronounced the best for hand purposes now before the public, and it is the general opinion that he has secured a good thing. He has worked faithfully and earnestly in perfecting it, and he has our best wishes for his complete success.
