Invention patent for automatic stop motion at St Marys Woolen Mills
H L Powell foreman at the St Marys Woolen Mills earned government patents for an automatic stop motion on spinning mules. The device stops the mule instantly if draw ropes break or loosen, reducing machine breakage. Three units are in use, with a trial at Piqua praised as a success. Powell may sell but chooses to hold onto rights initially. Maplewood hospital work finished. Reynolds and Rigrish invested heavily to equip the facility for operations.
