Larry,
I have seen one of those engines. It was in Chester, Nova Scotia (near where Hawboldt was made). It belonged to a retired schooner captain who had a variety of marine and stationary engines. I know I took a picture of it... but I don't have much of a filing system for my old engine photos.... so cannot readily find it.
I recall being impressed with it and also being suprised to see an engine from the "Maritimes" that wasn't a Hawboldt, Atlantic, or Acadia.
Regards,
Andrew |

Larry: This is the same engine, 1906 Ad. The london agent says they were an international exporter at that time, probably St John new Brunswick was the Canadian Agent.
