This appliance differs from all other
escapes presented heretofore, and so far
[s regards simplicity far escape from dan
Eer is far superior to any yet offered.
|Ihe escape consists of two helvy tubular
|ieces of brass, about fourteen inches
|ong and one inch in diameter, which are
t1ited together by two small strips of
/ similar metal about seven inches in length
lo this appliance are attached a
humber OF wide strips, consisting of neck
Ind body straps. which are so placed
hat they will admit of carrying one or
Jour persons, and are also fixed in such
banner that females may descend with
but any inconvenience whatever. Through
|he tubular pieces of brass, ropes are
laced which reach from n hook set in
le window or aperture of the apartment
hore the escape is to be mabe from.
te straps are then placed around the
ply, while the metal portion of the ap-
lance is put in front of the chest. The
1 1lry using the escape grasp the upright
eces of brass, and by means of brake,
fhich is in the same, governs the rate of
fpeei in descent. Two men are all that
re required to work the apparatus, and
hey are stationed below merely to direct
