| Description | Written from 18 Duke Street, Westminster, London. The letter explains to Carpmael that Brunel is about to attach to the engine of his big ship a governor, designed and constructed by Sir Marc Brunel several years previously but that Brunel has learned of a recent patent of a similar design. Brunel explains that he has no wish to evade a patent and requests Carpmael conduct a search for Sir Marc Brunel's patent for Improvements in Marine Engines. |
