The outside plates and frame are
of wrought iron lined to the depth
of nearly foot with re-prOof pack
ing. Inside this is another box of
welded plate of iron and steel, with
folding doors. The outside and in
side doors have combination locks.
and are strongly bolted, with sever
al flanges on the doors SO that it is
impossible to wedge the doors Off
and hard job to introduce any ex-
plosive inside them. Inside of all
this at the bottom. is the cash box
composed of % inches in thickness
of plates of hardened steel and iron
welded together, with the latest i'm
proved crane hinge, tongue and
groove door, fastened with numer
GUS bolts, and having the Sargent

attached. When this lock is wound
up to run a certain number of hours,
Immediately on shutting the door it
locks itself and no one can open it
until the hour comes round. The
safe is beautifully finished inside
and handsomely painted outside

have any fears of burglars get tins
their money or bonds when deposit
ed in that safe. The safe is from
tbs manufactOry of Terwilliger
