That's really great mate ..... but who is Denny?

"John Ericsson, builder of the ironclad USS Monitor, developed many different hot air engines beginning in 1826. An 1888 engine patent then was built by the Rider Ericsson Company. In 1895, a patent was issued to Harmer Denney for the Denney Improved Ericsson Hot Air Pumping Engine. These engines were built especially for pumping liquids and not any other service, due to their low horsepower".
