1Opinion of the Court
MANTON, Circuit Judge.
The suit involves four patents: No. 920,490, issued May 4, 1909; No. 931,464, issued August 17, 1909; No. 936,252, issued October 5, 1909; and No. 1,137,413, issued April 27, 1915—all for metering panel boards for electric power distribution.
The injunction complained of involves only patent No. 920,490 to one McWilliams, and for the purpose of this appeal it will be necessary to consider only such patent. Claims 1, 5, 6, 9, and 10 of the patent here considered were held valid and infringed in the Seventh circuit. Beachey et al. v. McWilliams, 224 Fed. 717, 140 C. C. A.…
