ordinary fire and burglar proof safe or otherwise and of any suitable material or
combination of materials and may be made drill proof but according to this

and I also fix shafts so that the safe may be drawn along by a horse or by men or
the same may be moved by any suitable power. I also provide wings or hooks fitted
to the safe so that it may be carried in a similar way to a sedan chair or otherwise,
I propose to paint the interior of the safe with phosphorescent paint or other
illuminating substance.
The safe may be placed on springs.
further propose when desired to fit to the safe (preferably at top and capable
of being disconnected) a medical chest or compartment to contain medical stores.
