TRUTH is MIGHTY, & MUST PREVAIL.
Report Of the Commiffee appointed to
superintend the burning Of The Iron
Safes at Reading, FEB. 27th, 1857.
READING, March 4ih.
The undersigned, members Of the Commit
Tee, do respectfully report, that we saw The
two Safes originally agreed rpon by Farrels
s. Herring and Evans & Watson, placed side
by side in furnace, viz: The Safe in use by
the Psymasier OF the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railroad Company in his Office at Read
ing, manufactured by Farres & Herring, and
the Safe in use by Fl. A. Lsulz, in his store.
manufactured by Evans & Watson, aud put
in books and papers precisely alike.
The fire was started at 81 O'Clock, A. M,
and kept up until four cords of green hickory,
two cords dry oak and half chestnut top wood
were entirely consumed, the whole under
the superintendence OF The subscribers, MEM
be:s oi the Committee. The Safes were then
cooled off with water, after which they were
opened, agd The books and papers taken out
by the Committee and sent 10 H. A. Lanz's
store for public examination, after they were
firsl examined and marked by the Commit.
tee. The books and papers taken from the
Safe manufactured by Evans & Watson were
bui slightly affected by the intense heat,
while those taken from the Safe manufsc-
lured by Farrels & Herring were, in our judg.
men', damaged fully fifteen per cent. more
than those iaken from Evans & Watson's
Safe.
