Fourth Street, Philada-
Truth is Mighty and must Prevail,
Report of ihf Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Safety at Reading t Feb.
27, 1857.
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes origi
nallv agreed upon by Parrels &- Herring and Evans
&. Wnison, placed side by side in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymasterof the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in Ins office
at Reading, manufactured by Parrels & Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lantz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson,and putia books
nnd papers precisely alike.
The fire was started at 8i o’clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry ookund half cheetnul top wood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the superintendence of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Safes were Uicn cooled off with water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A. f Lanfz’s
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by the Committee. The
books and papers taken from the Safe manufactured
by Evans & Watson were but slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Parrels &r Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans & Watson’s Safe.
Wc believe the above to have been a fair and Im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.

of the papers and books taken out of their respective
