application mea :my 14, reos. seran in. 326,172.

To all wwm it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE W. SCHODDE, a citizen of the United Sts/tes, residing at the cit-y of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain neu.v and useful Improvements' in Gutters, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification. My invention relates toimprovements in plumbing, and the same has for its object more particularly to provide a. simple, etlicient and reliable sectional gutter, which may be easily' and permanently secured iu the floor of stables, lofts, and other structureel Further said invention has for its object to provide e gutter in which the opposing or adjoining ends muy be secured together in such a manner as to roduce ay ectly writer-tig t joint.`

To the attainment of the aforesaid objects and ends my invention consists in the novel details of construction end in the combination, connection and arrangement of parts perm ensnt end per hereinafter more fullv described, and t-lieri pointed out in the claims. v

In the sccompenvi-*in drawin sforming art of this specification, werein li 'e numera of reference indicate like parts, Figure 1 is a top View, part-lybroken away, showing one liorm4 'of a gutter constructed according to and em bodying my seid invention; Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the suine, taken on the line 2 2 of Fig, 1, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken on the line 3 3 in the direction of the arrow Fig. 1.

ln said drawings 5, 5 denote correspondingl)v shaped trough sections which may be made of ang,v suitable material and substam tially U-sl'xaped in cross-section: Each of said troughwseetions 5, 51s provuled at one end with an offset portieri 8 having upon its inner surface an ini-verdlgextending rim or bead 7, and at its opposite end a ilungc por-.g

tion 8' which projects laterally from said trough lsection 5, and longitudinally bevond Athe end tl'lereoi, 'llius providing un inclosed or covered end portion il of the trough intermediate which und seid oll'sct portion R the I ortion 6 of the adjoiningr trough scction 5 is adapted to extend. and be lirmly sccured therein by calkingtlic sam(- vrizh .a quantity of' oakuxn or analogous material 1f).v

offset and a quantity oi' leed 1].

'llic portion ril/tbe lrougl. .section 5 ul tinI junction of its intermediate portion with the E offset portion @is recessed u on itsinner sur conformed to the inner surface of said trou section to which it is secured and its free end adapted to contact wit-h the inclosed end 9 of the adjoining trough section and thereby providing ar smooth unbroken surface.

Along the 'innersurfaces of the longitudinal edges of the t-roughsections 5 5 are provided shoulders 1616 adapted to su port the conformed cover plates 17 17 u' ich are Icurved transversely and provided with apertures 18 18.

It is to be noted that. en important feature of my improved gutter construction is that it permits of the entire gutter vsystem being adjusted in position in the flooring, Whether the same be wood, cement Aor stone, before the trough sect-ions are secured together, and
