MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe guards in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud ; 20.000 of them keep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their supe riority to any other others. Five of them have brought their contents unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow alone this year. wherein scores of other safes have been burnt out. Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's Inn in January, in one alone of which the title-deeds of thirty large landed estates were burnt, which would all have been preserved in Milner's Safes. From some hundreds of certificates, the following is selected, as one out of many instanees in which everything was consumed in the buildings excepting what Milner's Safe contained:— _ _ _ "Clyde-street, Anderston, Glasgow, May 7, 1849. "Gentlemen,—At the calamitous fire yesterday morning, by which our premises, and stock of oil, tallow, &c., were totally destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in thus bearing testimony to the great efficiency of these Safes. "CHARLES BOYD and Co. "This Safe was most severely tested, the brass knob and brass work about the lock were melted off." "Glasgow, 10th February, 1849. "Gentlemen, — The books and papers which we h a d i n y our Fire-resisting Safe, which was subjected to a most intense heat for several hours at the late fire in Gordon-street, on Thursday last, were wholly preserved—the property saved being of ex treme importance to us. We have, thtrefore, great pleasure in communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as a protection against fire, and an invention with which the public cannot be too well acquainted. "We are, gentlemen, your obedient servants, • " KER, DOERING, and Co. " Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, Liverpool." The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through. _ - "Triumphant Resistance to Robbers." "Gentlemen,—Our Milner's Safe was attempted to be broken open last night ; but notwithstanding the great and perse ver i ng violence with which the robbers have worked at the door and hack of the safe both of which are beaten in and cut through the outer plates in numerous places,) the lock and bolts re mained true, and saved the contents. You may send us another Milner's Holdfast Safe, No. 6. "Glasgow, Dec. 21, 1848. JAs. RICHARDSON and Co." "Manchester, August 13th, 1847. "Gentlemen,—ln the late Fire in Market-street, which en tirely gutted the whole block of buildings of which my Ware house farmed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers, watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public. " I am, your obedient servant, "THOMAS HAIGH, " Woollen Merchant, Ne w B rown-street and Market-street. "Messrs. MILNER and SON." In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Milner's Safes have been exposed to—every description of Safe in use — Fire-proof (so called) or otherwise, have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them ; and the Patentees, during seven years' active working of their pa tent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains or cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables, including the strongest Wrought-Iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the world, lined with their unequalled Fire-resisting Chambers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Safes in use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses in Great Britain—the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of se vere trial in accidental Fires have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt : Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierce Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside. Fire at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them, including the contents of a large Iron Safe and Drawers, stanidn use now. Milner's ; the contents of Milners' uninjured, and Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong onF thire;eapgraeimn premises. Fire of Milner's Safe the only thing saved Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth; a very extensive and destructive Fire; a large Iron Safe, covered with Brick work, with double iron doors, burnt out ; Milner's entirely preserving its contents. Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number if Safes and Closets burnt out ; no books saved throughout the buildings excepting Messrs. S. R. it..d Thomas Brown's, in Milner's Safe.
