DESTRUCTIVE FIRES IN GLASGOW, MAN-
CHESTER, LINCOLN'S-INN, &c.
MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST-
ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe-
guard 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, /kc., who know their superi-
ority to any others. Five of them have brought their contents
unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow Cons this
year, wherein scores of other safes have been burnt out.
Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's-inn m 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 fol-
lcwing is selected, as one out of many instances in which
everything was consumed in nub buildings excepting what
Milner's Safe contained :

" Clyde-street, Anders )1-Glasgow, May 7, 1849.
" Gentlemen,—At the calm' us fire yesterday morning, by
which our premises, and st of oil, tallow, ix., were totally
destroyed, our books we preserved in the Milner'e Fireproof
Safe, purchased from u. We have great pleasure in this
bearing testimony t e great efficiency of thine Safes.
" CHARLES BOYD and CO."
This Safe w ost severely tested; the brass knob:and brass
work abou e lock were milted off.
" Glasgow, 10th FebruarY, Mg.
" Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we had in your
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, therefore. great pleasure
in communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as
a protection against fire, and an invention with which the pub-
lic cannot be too well acquainted.—We are. gentlemen, your
obedient servants, " KER, DOERING, and CO."
The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through.

Triumphant Resistance to Robbers

" Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son. Liverpool.
" Gentlemen,—Our Milner's Safe was attempted I. be br•
ken open last night; but, notwithstanding the great and per-
severing violence with which the robbers have worked at the
door and back of the Safe (both of which are neaten in and eat
through the outer plates in numerous places), the lock and
bolts remained true, and saved the contents. You Way
us another Milner's Holdfast Safe, No. 6.
. . 1! JA,S...RICHARDSON and CO.
"'Glasgow, 28th December. Ism" •
Manchester, August 13th, 1547.
Gentlemen,—ln the late fire in Market-street, which en-
tirely gutted the whole block of buildings of which nay ware-
house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing yea
that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers,
watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Firs-
resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the pubic.—l
am, your obedient servant,
" THOMAS HAIGH.
" Woollen Merchant, New Brown-street, and Market-street.
" Messrs. Milner and Son."

In the numerous accidental fires and experimental tests
which Milner's Safes have been exposed to, ere', deseriptint
dtf safe fu use—fireproof (so called) or otherwise—have bees
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
patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor
cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled t•
pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete
and secure depositories for books, documents, and valuables;
including the strongest wrought-iron safes and closets 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
clan best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of
severe trial in accidental fires have occurred, front which
Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in
which they are of opinion that no other safe than their ow■
would have preserved its contents. Unburnt :
Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Sperling.
street, Liverpool : a strong and tierce fire ; safe most severely
burnt outside; contents unsinged.
Fir. at Messrs. J. and W. Walker's. the extensive builders,
Birkenhead: buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of large iroii safe and drawers,
standing beside Milner's; the contents of Milner's uninjured,
and in use now. •
Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane: every strong
fire; again the contents of Milner's Safe the only things saved
on the premises.
Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth : a very extensive
and destructive tire; a large iron safe. covered with brickwork,
with double iron doors, burnt out ; Milner's entirely preser-
ving its contents.

Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow: a great number of Wee ated
closets burnt out; no hooka saved throughout the beildions
excepting Messrs. B. R.. and Thomas Brown's, in Milner's
safe.
