MILNER'S SAFETY BOXES.
RECENT events have awakened so general a feeling of
the momentous importance of securing protection from
fire to Deeds, Records, M.SS.' Books and Papers of Ac-
compt. Cash, Gunpowder, and all 'combustible materials,
that THOS. MILNER and SON feel excused in again in-
viting public notice to their Patent Fire-resisting Deposit°,
ries. Having submitted their one-chambered Boxes, of one
inch in thickness, to severe trials in the principal towns,they
have received from the authorities of each the most satisfac-
tory certificates of their efficiency for ordinary casualties ;
and being confirmed in opinion by a-long courso of experi-
ment, that, under suitable modification of biambers and
thickness of boxes, the peculiar principle of heir Patent is
capable of affording security under the severest ordeal likely
to occur in calamities of the kind, they reapectfully solicit
the consideration of Gentlemen interested in mechanical
science to the subject generally, and investigation into the
pretensions of the various means' of security in use, their
own amongst the rest.
M. and S. are prepared to submit their manufactures to
public trial with any others of equal dimensions, whilst their
comparatively moderate cost renders them extensively avail-
able.
_ _ _ .

The certificate of the satisfactory trial of their Boxes in 1
Liverpool bears the signatures of the following Gentlemen,
to whom permission of reference is kindly given ,
THOMAS BOLTON. Esq., (ex-Mayor,)
JOHN SHAW LEIGH, Esq., (the Mayor,)
Sir THOMAS BRANCKER,
BARTHOLOMEW PRESCOT, Esq.,
L. GRAHAM, Esq.,
R. FRODSHAM, Esq.,
WM. STOCK, Esq.,
S. Woons, jun., Esq.
The more recent one below will be interesting to Ship-
owners and Builders, Gunpowder-dealers, &c., and is further
confirmatory of the capabilities of the principle:—
