it was with some mis giving that we approached the trance to the dark cavern whence for Dearly a century the cylinder parallel motion is pe culiar and not exact in its action for its purpose gear is also not automatic and this respect the engine is unique being a reproduction engine as it- Potter evolved the or Brighton the plug frame Whatever may have been the respec tive of Potter and Brighton
