From the experience he had from this wheel he invented and patented Feb. 22, 1859, his improved Jonval turbine, which was very simply constructed and yielded a greater percentage of power than the French Jonval turbines. Hundreds of these improved wheels, which were put in operation between the years 1859 and 1868, are still in use. In 1870, Brightwell & Davis sold their mill to Scott & Davis.

Having exchanged a few familiar remarks and inquiries with Mrs. Hinson, the sheriff asked, in a whisper: "Who is that man the small man with black eyes and white hands?"
For this fact, the next sessions after it happened the two brothers Brightwell in the Guards were tried, and if a number of men had not sworn them to have been upon duty at the time the robbery was committed, they had certainly been convicted, the evidence of the prosecutor being direct and full.
Brightwell the good old physician gave his evidence very reluctantly it went to prove the fact of the prisoner's absence from the deathbed of his grandfather upon the night of the reputed murder, and his distracted appearance when returning late in the morning. "Why do you say reputed murder?"
Dr Brightwell was very indignant because Heinrich had joined a religious community that dissented from the Articles of the Church of England.
