fordo us the highest satisfaction to state toyou
that owing to the very protective qualities o,
two of the Salamander Safes which we pur
chased bf you porno 'months since, we saved a
large portion of our jewelry, books, papers,
&c., exposed to the calamitous fife in Ran

' When we idled that these Safes were loca

Messes. EvsNs & WATSON :-1 have to offer
you my testimony in favor of the great security
afforded to my entire stock of jewelry, books,
papers, during the recent disastrous con
flagration in Ilanstend Pinfei from 'The fact
that the same were contained in two di the Sul- •
amender Sales mantiliiiitured by you.
Having fallen from the fifth story of the Ar
tisan building, wEtre they were previously
placed, and exposed to a vast heat for a long
time, the preservation of the valuable deposits
scorned to every one who witnessed the open
ing add interior examination, a matter of pro
found astonishment.
Twill who may require u perfect protection

No doubt you will be deeply gratified to learn
the good condition in which 1 discovered mir
book, policy of insurance, certificates of stock,
and other valuable documents, when on Fri.
day lust I opened the Safe made by your
firm.
With my knowledge of its great exposure
both to the intensity of the heat from so hot a
tire, as that which destroyed the Artisan build
ing, as also from the force of the fall from its
former elevated position in the third story. I
could entertain but slender hopes prior to its
interior inspection, that the contents which I
once so highly prized would ever he of any ser
vice to 111 C, hat as these fears a , now happily
removed, I fire) it only due to sa . to you, that I
can hetteethrth recommend t ' .. use of your
Sales ti all who may wish to thel a confidence
in the perfect security which such means pro
vides against so frightful an element.
