Regards as 'preposterous' David B Reid's attempt to gain support for his ill-fated ventilating system from the House of Commons, an institution he bitterly criticized for rejecting his invention in the first place. Does not wish to 'see the British Legislature blown to shivers' by Reid's invention. | |
