DESTRUCTIVE FIRE at HARPENDEN.
Harpenden, June 16, 1854.
" Gentlemen, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony to
the valae of your Fireproof Sa'es.
"Last Monday night my house, warehouse, and premises were
!Ilifortunately burned down ; the fire raged very fearfully for about
two_ hours, and, owing to the great scarcity of water, the whole of
my Premises and stock were consumed.
The safe I purchased of you had a most severe test, in conse-
;Vence of a barrel of brimstone standing close to it and melting with
„,"e heat of the fire, the burning lava running all over and under the
Tlte, which great), added to the intensity of the heat ; it remained
that Position about four hour's, and when with great difficulty it
was Fot out of the fire and opened, I found my books and papers all
>lnninjured
on You are at liberty to make what use you please of this informa-
ti,
