• LI VANS & WATSON, No. 26 South Fourth
J:A street, Philadelphia, have had the suhat
demonstration in the following coruscates
that their manufacture of Salamander Safes
has at length fully warranted the represents,-
tioas which have been made of them, as ren
tiering an undoubted security against the ter
rific ele eut:
PAILADILIPHIA, April 12,1866.
as. Erase & W.crion af
ffrds us the highest satisfaction to state toyou
that owing to the very protective qualities o,
two of the Salamander Safes which we pur
chased of you some months since, we saved a
large portion of our jewelry, books, papers,
&c., exposed to the calamitous fire in Ran
stead Place, on the morning of the 11th
instant.
When we reflect that these Safes were loca
ted in the fourth story of the building 'reoccu
pied, and that they fell suhsequently into a
heap of burning ruins, where the vast concen
tration of heat caused the brass plates to me
e cannot but regard the preservation of tL.
valuable contents as most convincing proof o
the great security afforded by your Safes.
11 e shall take much pleasure in recom
mending them to men of business as a sure re
fiance against the fire.
GEO. W. SIMONS & BRO.
PHILADELPHIA, April 12, 1866.
MENEM EVANS & WATSON I-1 have to offer
you my testimony in favor of the great security
afforded to my entire stock of jewelry , books,
papers, &c., during the recent disastrous con
flagration in Ranstead Place, from the fact
that the tame were contained in two of the Sal
amander Safes manufactured by you.
Baring fallen from the fifth story of the Ar
tisan building, where they wore previously
placed, and exposed to a vast heat for a long
time, the preservation of the valuable
the
seemed to every one who witnessed the open
ing and interior examination, a matter of pro
found astonishment.
Toall who may require a perfect protection
rom the ravages of fire, I shall not hesitate to
recommend the me of your Safes, u I consid
er they have now undergone the most trying
test. N. E. MORGAN.
PHILADELPHIA, April 12, 1856.
MESSRS EVANS & WATSON :--tlentlemen—
No doubt you will be deeply gratified to learn
the good condition in which I discovered my
book, policy of insurance, certificates of stock,
and other valuable documents, when on Fri
day last 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
fire, 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 be of any ser
vice to me, but as these fears are now happily
removed, I feel it only due to say to you, that I
can henceforth recommend the use of your
Safes to all who ma, wish to feel a confidence
in the perfect security which such means pro

HERRING'S SAFE
AGAIN
THE cmharrtan't
The only Safe which in every inAtance imuerir
ed their udi-- contents in the late =ten
sive Fires.
AT the burning of the Artisan I , xildings
April 10th, and in the GREAT FIREIn
Market Street, May Ist, 1856, the genuine
HERRING SAFE preserved the yewellery of
Geo. W. Simons & Bro. ; Books, Palere &c, of
Fisher k Bra and Ewdard Semans k Co., af
ter remaining exposed to the burning ruins for
nearly FORTY HOURS, and proving conclu-
sively what we Lein ..ways claimed for them
their great superiority over all securities now
known.
In these fires; the HERRING'S SAFE,
standing side by side with those advertised as
"warranted to stand 10 per cent. more fire than
Herrings,"came forth the acknowledged victor,
not only preserving their contents in excellent
order, bat being themselves in a condition to
go through .another ordeal, while the boasted
tahintandera” of other makers were badly
used up in every instance, and in some casts
their entire contents completely destroyed.
To the public we would simply say, that,
during the 14 years that Herring's Safe has
been before them, more than two hundred
have passed through accidental fires without
the occurrence of a single loss.
We would, therefore, caution purchasers
against the misrepresentation of interested par
ties. The Herring's Patent is the only ire
proof Safe made in this city,which is protected
by a Patent Right, and we will guarantee it to
resist more than double the amount of heat of
any other Sate now known.
