Use of both 'hoisting-wings' and 'propelling-wings' powered by operator pedaling; cargo also serves to balance the vessel.

For some reason classified by USPTO only under 244/64 (human-powered), not under 244/28 (flapping) like its successor Patent US-1892-478905.

Inventor location (imputed by HistPat): Circleville, Pickaway county, Ohio (FIPSloc=39129)

Note: Witness A. L. Hough has the same last name as patent agent Franklin H. Hough and is listed at the same address, 925 F street, Washington DC.
