=THE AMERICAN SUBMERGED=
=Ship Pump=.

BOSTON, January 17, 1868.

GENTS—I have with great interest examined your American
Submerged Ship Pump in full operation. I consider it the best
Pump I have ever seen, as to the steady and large volume of water
delivered, its simplicity, and great labor saved, which is the
desideratum on ship board. No clapper getting off. No packing. No
drawing of boxes to clear the clapper, and placed below freezing
point. As to force and head pumps on board ship, it cannot be
equalled. _It is the pump_. My opinion is based upon
_over half a century’s_ experience on shipboard.

JOHN DEVEREUX,
Surveyor American Lloyds.

This Dock is fitted with a Caisson Gate, and is supplied with
two powerful Centrifugal Steam Pumps, capable of pumping out

The Company feel warranted in stating that Repairs on Vessels

cost of materials and labor as in any other part of the world.
