A.D. 1865, November 29. — N° 3064. FARR, Enoch, and GREGORY, Isaac.
—Improvements in the construction of pianofortes, that is, in pianoforte
actions. The bottom of the sticker carries a pin which passes through a
piece of leather or cloth into an orifice at the back end of the key;
the sticker is held in position by a lever which moves through a slot in
it, and which is centred at one end to a pro ection from the sticker and
at the other to a lever rail. The hopper is centred at bottom to the
sticker, its top resting against, the hammer butt; the regulating wire
is screwed through the hopper into the sticker; the button which it
carries is placed between them, a recess being cut in the hopper to
admit it. The check wire is fixed to the butt, the check button to the
sticker. The hammer butt is acted upon by a spring secured to the hammer
rail. The damper is fixed to the lever. A balance repeater spring acts
on the hopper; it is connected with the butt, and, being affected in
tension by the movement of the butt, regulates the force of the spring
on the hammer rail. (see next

(continuation)
A touch regulator is inserted in the
sticker and is connected by a bridle to a spring. The lever rail serves as a
damper rail; it turns on a centre fixed to the frame, and is in connection
with the damper pedal.
In a horizontal instrument the check wire
is fixed to the hopper; the butt is not acted on by a spring, and the
repeater regulates the fall of the hammer and causes the hopper to resume
its position under the step of the butt. Modification :
1.
The lever is .dispensed with,
the sticker being fixed firmly to the key. The damper is pendent; its upper
end is jointed to the hammer rail, and a regulating button removes it from
and presses it against the strings. The hammer rail is also the damper rail,
being made to turn on an axis and being put into connection with the pedal.
2.
The key vibrates upon a point under or near to the angle of the lever
formed by the sticker and key; the regulating screw with its button is
inserted in the rest rail, and the hopper is made in the form of a
bell-crank lever."

Patent of 1835 : "To Pierre Frederick Fischer,
of Great Marlboroughstreet, in the county of Middlesex, merchant, for
certain improvements in pianofortes, communicated to him by a foreigner
residing abroad.— [Sealed 15th May, 1835.] The subjects of this patent are
rather numerous and various, and are extended to a considerable magnitude,
both in the description and drawings, without much attention to clearness.
We shall, however, consider it sufficient, in this instance, to give but a
slight report of the matter, from a conviction that the invention is neither
one of general interest, nor are the novel points at all obvious. One of the
features is, the construction of the action mechanism to be applied to a
pianoforte, in which the tones are produced by the vibrations of metallic
springs. These sounding springs may be of a variety of forms, either coiled
in helical curves, convolute curves, zigzags, or other bent shapes; or they
may be of straight rods, bars, or forks, or a combination of these in
various ways. The mode of bracing the framework of the instrument
constitutes one feature; and the effect of the touch upon the keys may be
varied by an adjustable contrivance. The sounding board is placed in
connexion with the head or tympanum of a kettle drum, in order to produce a
brilliancy of tone; and the instrument is mounted upon castors, which have
helical springs in their sockets, to prevent derangement when moved about.—

"WHEREAS a Petition for
adjudication of Bankruptcy was, on the 11th day of June 1851, filed against
Thomas Fisher, of No. 85, Gower-street, Bedford-square, and of No. 12,
Tottenham-street, Tottenham-court-road, both in the county of Middlesex,
Piano Forte Manufacturer, and he having been declared bankrupt is hereby
required to surrender himself to Edward Holroyd, Esq. one of Her Majesty's
Commissioners of the Court of Bankruptcy, on the 26th day of June instant,
at eleven o'clock in the forenoon precisely, and on the 15th day of July
next, at two o'clock in the afternoon precisely, at the Court of Bankruptcy,
Basinghall-street, in the city of London, and make a full discovery and
disclosure of his estate and effects; when and where the creditors are to
come prepared to prove their debts, and at the first sitting to choose
assignees, and at the last sitting the said bankrupt is required to finish
his examination. All persons indebted to the said bankrupt, or that have any
of his effects, are not to pay or deliver the same but to Mr. James Foster
Groom, No. 12, Abchurch-lane, Lombard-street, the Official Assignee, whom
the Commissioner has appointed, and give notice to Mr. William Cox,
Solicitor, Pinners' Hall, Old Broad-street."

"LOW-PRICED PIANOFORTES. [...]Mr Thomas
Fisher of Gower Street, Bedford Square, having informed us that he has made
a 6¾ piccolo, with metallic plate, pine case French polished, and the
usual furnishings, at twenty pounds, we requested a friend of adequate skill
to examine it and report. The report is as follows : — It is a very
good school-room piano, suitable for rough usage. The tone is clear, full,
and rather loud than otherwise — something like the old-fashioned upright
pianos. It wants in softness and richness, and would be more fitted for hard
practising than for drawing-room music, or as an accompaniment to the voice.
The appearance of the instrument is quite plain, though not inelegant.
Altogether it would be a most useful instrument where the modern refinements
of tone were not required."

BIO
"FLIGHT, BENJAMIN, an eminent organ
builder, born about 1767, was the son of Benjamin Flight (see above),
who, in the latter part of the last century, carried on, in partnership
with John Kelly, under the style of ‘Flight and Kelly, the business of
organ building at Exeter Change. Young Flight learned the art of
constructing organs from his father. About the year 1800 he commenced
business, in partnership with Joseph Robson, in Lisle Street, Leicester
Square, under the style of Flight They afterwards removed to St.
Martin's Lane, where they constructed and for many years publicly
exhibited the Apollonicon. [See Apollon Icon.] The partnership was
dissolved in 1832, after which Flight, in conjunction with his son, J.
Flight, who had long actively assisted him, carried on business in St.
Martin's Lane, as ‘Flight and Son.” Flight invented many improvements in
organ building which prepared the way for still superior mechanism.
Amongst them was an apparatus for steadying the wind, added to the
bellows during a reparation of Father Schmidt's organ at Trinity
College, Cambridge, which preceded, and possibly suggested, the
concussion bellows. B. Flight died in 1847 aged 80, and Robson in 1876.
Flight's son continues the business in St. Martin's Lane under the name
of Flight and Son."
