Caption:
Till, or Shelf - A mahogany shelf, in wooden presses, divided in two longitudinally, that clasps the hose, and causes it and the spindle to come down perpendicularly without any play.
Spindle - The screw to which the bar of the press is affixed, and which produces the pressure on the platen.
Hose - Two upright bars of iron that connected the garter and the hose hooks, and went through the till.
