ANN ARBOR, MICH., May 4th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—My roof was the first one in this city on which
your tin shingles were used, and they have given entire
satisfaction. I would not exchange it for any other roof that I
know of.

Yours truly,

GEO. W. MOORE.

MILFORD, DELAWARE, May 10th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—Would say that the Walter’s Patent Metallic
Shingles, put on the Electric Light Station in this town, by W.
P. Cullen, are giving entire satisfaction, making a handsome
and durable roof, much preferable in our judgment to the
regular tin roofs usually put on such buildings.

Very truly yours,

W. T. JOHNSON.

NEW MILFORD, DEL., May 15th, 1888.

Perhaps it may be of interest to you to know my views of the
Tin Shingle Roofing purchased of W. P. Cullen, of Milford,
Del. I can recommend in the highest degree their use, as
they possess many advantages over any other material used
for that purpose. They require no skilled labor, and are as
durable as any tin roof can possibly be. I have watched it
during every rainstorm since it was laid, and not one drop
has passed through it to my gratification, and to the credit
of the inventor. I invite the inspection of any one who may
contemplate putting on a roof upon any building.

Respectfully,

P. H. STORM.

BROCKTON, MASS., April 27th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—Two years ago the Brockton Agricultural Society
covered the roof of their main building with your tin shingles,
and I am pleased to inform you that they have given perfect
satisfaction.

Yours truly,

H. W. ROBINSON, President.

CHURCH OF THE HOLY APOSTLES, ST. CLAIR, PA.,
April 25th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—The Walter’s Patent Metallic Shingles have been
the covering to the Rectory of this church since September,
1885. They were put on by novices under disadvantageous
circumstances, and have withstood every test that a
Pennsylvania mountainous district changeable weather could
give. I talk tin shingles to all my friends.

Yours truly,

CHAS. A. MARKS, Rector.

NATCHEZ, MISS., February 16th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—I have been in the tin roofing business for the past
20 years, and I believe that the Walter’s Patent Tin Shingles
make the best tin roofing of any of the other patents that
are now on the market. I have put on hundreds of squares of
them, and they have given me and the property owners entire
satisfaction. I will further say that each box of shingles
I have bought from them has covered one hundred square feet
of roof, which will be understood by tinners to be a great
satisfaction in ordering roofing, as the rule is that patent
roofing falls short after being laid. I have often been asked
by different manufacturing companies for my opinion of the
roofing that they manufacture, but this is the first time that
I have ever given my opinion, and I would not give my opinion
now if the Walter’s Patent Tin Shingles did not deserve it.

I am, yours truly,

P. W. MULVIHILL.

BATON ROUGE, LA., February 24th, 1888.

Gentlemen:—I beg to say that I have used the Walter’s Patent
Tin Shingles for some time, and they have given satisfaction.
I think they make the best roofing that can be put on for the
money.

Yours truly,
