Years before the single trigger for double-barrel guns was available, he sent the Hunter Anus Co. (later called L. C. Smith) detailed plans on how to build one. They paid for his services but waited too long to introduce it, and the Fox Gun Co. beat them to the marketplace.


Me thinks my late friend Mr. Baldwin, or his editors, really screwed this up!!
