Nf.juhn Scottish: inauswerto your inquiries
w believe that your patent Asbestos Chests fully
as good, they do not suIpass, any other chests that
( Wa have ever seen. We therefore recommend them
to the attention OF all persons who wish to supply
themselves with non Chests. The following facts
viii enable every person TO Judge: Al the time Of
the great fire the 10th. had two single tone o.
them OF your manuiaclre) Iron Chests, in which
We put our valuable books, papers, notes, and mo-
uey. The chests exposed to the same heat for
about seven hoafs-aud on being opened, your chest
WAS found to have preserved every thing that had
brenPnt INTO II; bat of the contents of the other
chest, not yestige was LETT unconsumcd.
Very respectfully, yom obt. servants.
HUBBARD x CASEY
The above was the only patent Asbestos chest that
uthe fire. aud numerous witnesses are willing
and ready to testify to the truth of the above certh
cate. Papers are perfectly secure in these chests
open them without success, of which several certif-
Gates may be seen at the office of the subscriber.
JOHN SCOTT.
Ihayeh had one of Mr.. John SCOTS Iron Fire Proof
thcsts in my counting house for the last year, and
during that time have had my counting house bro-
ken open twice, and robbed of what could be obtain
ed but my books, papers, &c. were entirely preser-
we'd rom depredatiuu having been kept in the chest.
NJ one time in particular, every eXertlon was made
to break il open, but without success 1t was also
rolled TO tho door for the purpose OF taking il oil.
but the attempt unsuccessful.
