Excerpt from Journal of the Patent Office Society, Vol. 1: September 1918 An act of Congress authorizing the issue of patents for new discoveries has given a spring to invention beyond my conception. Being an instrument in granting the patents, I am acquainted with their discoveries.

While President, in 1807, he wrote to Oliver Evans, famous as an early inventor, as follows. Nobody wishes more than I do that ingenuity should receive a liberal encouragement: nobody esti mates higher the ability which society has derived from that displayed by yourself: and I assure you with truth, that I shall always be ready to manifest it by every service I can render you.
