The pawl J, has projection shown in Fig. 4, which projection c, when the collar is moved in the direction` indicated by the arrow acts on the pin e, in the bolt H, and forces the bolt back and holds it until the pawl J, moves the collar G, so as to carry the score past the end of th then releases the bolt, so that the spring N, fastened on the rear of the front B, presses the end of the o lt against the collar G, and into the score when it comes opposite the bolt, so as to thechisel F, in a proper position after it is reversed.

To all 'whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, MOSES MARSHALL, of Lowell, in the county of Middlesex and tate of Massachusetts, have invented cer tain new and useful Improvements in Mortising-Machines; and I do hereby declare that the same are described and represented .in the following specifications and draw- 1n s.

Ilo enable others skilled in the art to make and use my improvements I will proceed to describe the construction and operation, referring to the drawings in which the same letters indicate like parts in each of the figures.
