Specificatioxi forming part of Letters Patent N0.l7357 8, dated February 15, 1876:, applicatiofi filed 7 September 11, 1875.
T0 all 101mm it may sondern:
Be it known that I,SILAS E, BAUDER, ot' Birmingham, in the county 0E Erle and- State of Ohio, have invented a new and valuable Improvexnent in Oroquet-Mullets; and I du .hereby declare that the fulloiving is a full,
seribed.
Tl1e objeet of this invention is 130 provide a unallet which will be' useful in striking a ball 'through an ardh, 01 wlien it is partl-ywired 01 elose .t0 a stake,ai1d for .other purposes,
"'wlxich cannot be readily effeeted wi th tlxe 012 dinary.mallet having the double expanded head.
111 the accolnpanying drawing, theletter A designates t-l1e handle 0f themallet. B represents the head, one end 0 of whieh may be 0f ordinarj size and form. 'Ll1e 0ther end D, lmwever, is designed 10 b.e 1nade langer, cylindrical, Ol n'ea'rly so, and of smaller diameter, slightly ta'pering, as i'ndieated, and 001'1- nected to-tlne butt-end by an oft'sel; 01 concave shoulder E, the si ze and weigl1t of.this slender end being so related to the laxge end and tl1e position of the handle that tl1e head will be properly balanced, and tl1e mallet easy to wield in tl1e band.
This instrumenb Will be found especially useful in strikii1g aball w-l1ieh has passed under an arch and lies but a few inehes from it. Such a bal l cannot be str'uck t0 advantage witl1 an ordinary mallet, npr Witl'i a mallet with a thiek and having theform 0f a frustum ot' a eone, which would be apt to glanee or knock down tl1e wire or sta-ke' so a good shot c an be made with tl1e long end f tl1is, when a ball is partly wired, or lies nea1 01 close 130 a stake; and when blne foot is upon the ball it: is of service in making tl1e strokeat tl1e Same time tlxe full advanta5ge ot' the lange 0r butt end of the mallet-headis preserv6d.
I am aware of tlxe frustum-shaped mallet; 0f
E. A. Boss, patented March 4, 1873, and I d0 'not clain'1 such invention.
What 1 claim. as new, and desire to seeure by Letters Patent, is
'Ilxe eroqet-mallet, having its hea' coustrueted witl1 a butt-end, C, and a long, slender tapering end, D, balaneing said butt-end, and conneeted thereto by concave ofl'sei; 01 shoulder E, substantially as s[ ecified.
In testimony tl1at I elaim the above, I have hereunto subseribedmymame in tl1e presence ot two witnesses.
