EXTRAORDINARY and SUCCESSFUL RESIST-
ANCE to ROBBERS of MILNER'S "HOLDFAST"
and FIRE RESISTING SAFE.
THE STRONGEST SAFEGUARD EXTANT AGAINST

ROBBERY AND FIRE.
Early last year, Messrs. Wm. Watson and Co., tre Watson
Brothers,) applied to Thos. Milner and Son, . construct for
them one of their strong Holdfast Safes or ' ests, to contain
10?000 dol'ars in silver, for its safe cone nee over the moun-
tains from the mines to Tampico. TI Gentleman writing for
the Safe was at the time lying co ned to his bed from a
bullet and two bayonet wounds h lad received in an attack of
the Mexican robbers on a vain:. e convoy, in which the Safe
he then used was broken up ; plundered of a large amount
of specie. The Safe and :gon constructed for it were ex-
hibited at our works, and . several Liverpool houses, and met
with great approval fro• several of our engineers and prac-
tical men, and doub •as will be in the recollection of the
,Public, and we hay. : reat pleasure in announcing that we have
received the following polite and unsolicited note from Mr.
Watson, who has since given us permission to publish it.
"Derby Buildings, 20th September,_ 1850.
" Mr. W:-TSON presents his compliments to Mr. MILNER,
and hp to communicate to him the followingextract of a letter,
gated the 11th ultimo. from his partner, at Tampico I—
" The Iron Waggon and Safe, (ex Josephine,)with Sixty Bars
of Silver, was attacked by Forty-five Robbers, between Catore
and San Luis Potosi. and they worked twelve hours to open the
Chest, and did net succeed; meantime assistance came from
San Luis Potosi.

" This is very satisfactory, and does you credit, and will, no
sloubt,leadto further orders." _
_ _

The whole of the outside of this Safe wag half inch wrought.
iron; proof against sledge-hammers, chisels, or any other vio-
lence, and well it did its duty. We have at this time a number
of large Banker's and Merchant's Safes in course of construc-
tion—one for a Diamond Merchant in London—of which we
invite the attention of the Public. Our Works are the most
extensive and complete of their class in the world, employing
more experienced Workmen (upwards of 100, assisted by the
most approved and powerful machinery) than all the Safe_
makers in England together—a Lancashire Workshop well
worth looking over. Its whole operations—from the cutting
up and working of the Wrought-iron Plates and Bars, from the
thickness of a half-crown to that of its diameter, to the
building up of these superb and massive Safes—the filling of
their chambers with the Fire-resisting materials—the arrange-
ment of their powerful Hinges, Bolts, and impregnable Locks
—altogether are well worthy of the study of the Mechanic and
the Nan of Science.
