The machine which he used was fin- nted by Edwin Allen of Norwich and this was supposed to be Mr. Allen’s largest single contribution to the me- chanle arts. The following from an article in Typ- his invention in Norwich. Mr. Allen was born on the 27th of March, 1811, in the town of Windham, Conn., then a place of some importance, and with a twin brother was the young- est of a family of nine children.
