GREAT FIRE AT THE GUTTA
PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS, AND DEFEATED
BURGLARIES.

THOMAS MILNER and SON have sincere pleasure in
communicating to their Friends and the Public the following
new endorsements to the claims of their HOU-OAST and
FIRE-RESISTING SAFES. The Fire at the Gutta Percha
Company's Works was of the most intense character, as may
well be conceived from the nature of ita food. Gutta Percha,
Oil, Naptha. reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted red-hot
walls. The Safe has been most severely tried, as the letter
testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace without
a singe upon them.

"Gutta Percl!a Company's Works

" City-road, London, Bth June, 1853.
"SIRS,—We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservation of all the books and papers* contained in
the large safe you recently supplied us with, although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of
our works. This is the more remarkable, as the intense heat
has in many parts melted the outside of the safe.
" We are of opinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
this letter in any way you may wish.
" We are, Sirs, your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA PERCHA. COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY.

* Including .4'5,000 worth of Cash and Bills,

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpool, Bth June, 1833.
"GENTLEMEN,—Some time back I was indebted•to your
strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
large amount of cash, against the violent and persevering
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had

last 'from you for my provision warehouse in Brownlow-hill.
The floor was all trodden over around the safe. as if the thieves
had been at it for many hours, after which they got it out into
the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open,
they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion ; but in which they were again foiled.
"I feel it due to your invaluable safeguards to give you this
testimonial, and shall strongly recommend them to all my
friends. Please send me another of the same size for my house.
" I am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,
"THOMAS LEICESTER.
