Voss v. Wiseman

Victor E. Baum, the owner of Patent No. 2,273,342, brought this suit for damages, alleging in the first cause of action an infringement of the patent which relates to an adjustable mounting for a horsehead used on walking beams employed on pumps in oil fields. In the second cause of action, it is alleged that the defendant, Cabot Shops, Inc., incorporated in its oil pumping equipment a feature of the patent which had, prior to patent, been disclosed to its officials in confidence. The subject matter of each cause of action is the same.
