Scene II, as illustrated in the photograph attached

above, shows the manual op hand roll-over method of removing

hemp core and replacing the hemp core with a steel core by the

use of a marlin spike during which operation the rope is held

between vices and the marlin spike is rotated in the helix of the

strands of the wire rope. During this operation the marlin spike,

the outgoing hemp core and the incoming steel core are rotated

about the rope. This method of recoring wire rope is very old in

the art and was, for a short time, commercially used by the

plaintiff, Charles F. Hansen, prior to his making the invention

covered by the patent in suit.

The pictures of Scene II were taken on the plaintiff's

premises in Alton, California, on September 17, 1957.
