| Last Sentence: |
Cooley has abandoned staircases, and he is now perfecting a washing machine which he hopes will be successful, although when he tried the working model on last Monday, two weeks, it ground four shirts and a pillow-case, and two white waistcoats into pulp, and knocked out the brains of Jim Cooley's dog with the handle of the crank which slipped while the last pillow-case was going through.
