For Excellence of Workmanship, solidarity of design, simplicity of valve and governor arrangements the Warrington GAS ENGINES are far and away superior to all others. A Six-horse power and a two-horse power Warrington Gas Engine may be seen working in the INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION, and intending purchasers would do well to inspect them. We are prepared to GIVE A 12 MONTHS' GUARANTEE WITH ALL OUR ENGINES.'[1]
