Mr.. BLAKE-Dear Sir | had building adjoining the
wall OF my stone Cotton Factory, the roof Of which
was covered with your re-proof Paint or Artificial
Slate The Factory took fire. and during the progress
OF its destruction large numbers of burning shingles and
other combustbe materials fell upon this roof cover
flames; but after the Factory burned down, examined
said root and found it literally covered with Goals and
cinders, but the fire had not made the least impression
upon it. Alter this test there certainly can be no doubt
as to its fire-proof qualities. SETH G. JONES,
