Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Principal Instruments Used in American Engineering and Surveying, Manufactured by W. And L. E. Gurley Early sixty years ago the manufacture of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' instruments was begun in this city by Jonas H. Phelps and William Gurley. Mr. Phelps retiring some years later, Lewis E. Gurley formed with William Gurley the firm of W. L. E. Gurley; and under this name the business has since been conducted. The first edition of gurley's manual was published in 185 5, a book of seventy pages. It was well received, and was the first really practical treatise on the use and adjust ment of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' instruments. The revised and enlarged manual is used as a text book ih many schools and colleges, and is freely quoted in technical publications. The capacity of the factory has been increased as the demands of the profession have grown during the half cen tury, until we are now the most extensive manufacturers of Civil Engineers' and Surveyors' instruments in the world.

Excerpt: ...and bent close to the link, to avoid kinking. The oval rings are about one-third stronger than round ones. The handles are of brass and form part of the end links, to which they are connected by a short link and jam-nuts, by which the length of the chain is adjusted. The tallies are of brass, and have one, two, three or four notches, as they mark ten, twenty, thirty or forty links from either end. The fiftieth link is marked by a rounded tally to distinguish it from the others. In place of the four-pole chain just described, many surveyors prefer a chain two rods or thirty-three feet long, having only fifty links, which are counted by tallies from one end in a single direction. Our surveyors' chains are made of Nos. 8 and 10 refined iron wire, and of Nos. 8, 10, 12 and 15 best steel wire. Iron And Steel Steel chains are often preferred on WIRE account of their greater strength, although they are more costly than those of iron. Engineers' chains differ from surveyors' chains, in that Engineers' a unk including a ring at each end is one foot Chains long, and the wire is of steel and therefore much stronger. They are either fifty or one hundred feet long, and are furnished with swivel handles and tallies like those just described. The wire used for these chains is of steel of the first quality, Nos. 8, 10 and 12. A very light and strong chain is made of No. 12 steel Brazed Steel wire, the links and rings of which are Chains securely brazed. The wire is of a low spring-temper, and the chain, though light, is almost incapable of being broken or stretched in careful use. Our brazed steel chains have been found exceedingly desirable for all kinds of measurement, and for the use of engineers upon railroads and canals they have very generally...
