This August 22, 1901 - "American Machinist Magazine" obituary was found by 'Knute1'.
I thought it quite interesting and have attached a copy. It's nice to put a face on a name!
Also attached is a brief Ordnance Department note on Parkhurst Clip (trial summary) and Patent Drawing ('Cartridge Packet').
(Note - Patent was granted in 1905. Mr. Parkhurst was deceased and his wife, Julie E. Parkhurst, was 'Executrix').
