In 1852 Ericsson designed a ship named after himself that was powered by a caloric engine, considered revolutionary by the inventor and many of his contemporaries. The vessel's machinery, which was as usual built by Hogg & Delamater, was designed to test Ericsson's idea of driving a ship by heated air instead of steam. Ericsson and Delamater also backed the ship financially, expecting it to be so successful that ship owners worldwide would adopt his caloric engine. In 1854 a Dun statement noted that Hogg & Delamater "have invested a large amount of money in the 'Ericsson ship experiment.' If it is successful they will be very rich, and if it is not, they will be hard run." 107 Ultimately, the ship's engines were considered a failure, the speed reaching only half of what was anticipated. Nevertheless, the company was not badly hurt financially, partly because John B. Kitching, a wealthy New Yorker and one of Ericsson's backers, absorbed much of the loss. Perhaps more important, the caloric engine proved quite successful for pumping water, driving printing presses, and running a variety of small machines, and in later years, Delamater built many such engines for non-marine use. 108
