SECURITY AGAINST FIRE TO BOOKS AND
DOCUMENTS.
MOST VALUABLE, BUT UNINSURABLE. •
SEVENTH recent practical service of MILNERS'
EIRR-RESISTING SAFES.—Fire Resisting by self-con-
tained and self-acting evaporation, which must always precede
and prevent Fire.
This is the second case in which everything in the Premises,
excepting what 'Miners' Safe preserved, was consumed.

"TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, ETC.
."SIR,—In the complete burning of the whole of our pre-
mises on Monday last, the only things saved out of the stock
and property were our Books, which we feel that we owe en-
tirely to MILNERS' FIRE-RESISTINO SAFE, in which we kept
them. The Safe bears evidence of the intense fire it had re:
slated, and it was with as much surprise as gratitude that, on
breaking it open after the fire, we found instead of ashes as we
expected, our Books perfect as we left them. We think it due
to this invaluable invention, and to the public, to make this de-
claration through your columns.
" Remaining, Sir, your obedient Servants,
" GARNISS and CO.,
"Late of 97, Park-lane, General Outfitters.
" Queen's Dock Master's House, 12th N0r.,1845.
"P.S.—XSO in notes, left in the desk, were destroyed."

"Central Dock Station, 18th Novemler, 1845.
Messrs. MILNER and SON,
"Gentlemen,--I was present during the whole time of the
fire at Messrs. Garniss's, on Monday night, and consider it one
of the hottest fires of the kind I ever witnessed, especially in
the shop, where your Safe was.
"Gentlemen, your obedient Servant,
"AVM. LEVEItAIT, Superintendent of Police."

The Liverpool Mercury remarks, after describing the fire:—
"The Books belonging to the establishment, which were in one
of Milners' Fire-resisting safes, were the only articles pre-
served."

Birkenhead, June 2, 1845.

"Dear Sir,—We have much pleasure in beaiing unqualified
testimony to the efficiency and important advantages of Mi L-
NERS' FIRE-RESISTING SAFES AND BOXES, in cases of acci-
dent from Fire. _

—;Aiteitliedestructive Fire at our Offices this morning, the
Books and Papers deposited in the MILNERS' SAFE purchased
from you, were found to be entirely uninjured by Fire, whilst
those contained in a strong Iron Safe and Drawers, standing
beside it, were completely destroyed.
"We will accordingly thank you to supply us with another
SAFE of the same size (No. 4) and description immediately.
"Sir, your obedient Servants,
"J. and W. WALKER.

" Mr. JAMES LAW, Stationer, Birkenhead."
The Liverpool papers, in reporting the fire, state, " The
building in which the fire commenced was cempletely gutted,
and the whole of the contents destroyed, with the exception of
the Books, those being preserved in one of MILNERS' PATENT
SAFES. Messrs. Walker have sustained a very serious loss, by
the destruction of a number of plans and specifications of build-
ings, some erected and others in course of erection, which it is
almost impossible to estimate. These were consumed in a
strong Iron Safe, standing beside Mt LEERS SAFE..
