FIENCE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 316,916, dated April 28, 1885.
Application filed September 29, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, ANDREW J. RUssELL and WILLIAM M. GooLDEN, citizens of the United States, residing at London Bridge, in the county of Princess Anne and State of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fences, of which the following is a description.
This invention relates to that class of fences which are used on farms to keep animals within bounds; and its object is to construct a strong fence without nails or screws, so that the same shall be portable in finished sections and be easily andcheaply made.
To this end our invention consists in the construction and combination of parts forming a fence, hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying draw ings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of our fence. Fig. 2 is an end view of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan view at one end; and Fig. 4 is a horizontal section at m :0, Fig. 2.
A A represent two stakes, which we place across each other at a point high enough to hold the top rail. Then we place the end of a rail, B, up into the downward fork thereof, and passing a loop of wire, 0, beneath the rail B, around both stakes, twist it tight. Now, we lay thetop rail, D, in the upward fork, then pass a wire, E, around the stakes, across overthe rail D, and twist it together to form a loop. Now, take a post, F, and insert its upper end downward through the loop E, as shown at f, then take a pry on the loop by carrying the post F, down to a vertical position. This binding-wire E, thus strained, has a triple action. It first draws the upper ends of the stakes firmly against the sides of rail D, which would be thereby crowded up out of place; but the cross portion of the same wire E acts in the second place to hold the rail D down between the stakes. The act of so firmly drawing the upper ends of the stakes together on the rail D tends to strain thelower loop, 0, thereby holding the rail B more firmly. The post F is fastened in a vertical position by means of a common wire loop, G, passing through the loop 0 and around the post; or this wire G might pass around one of the stakes A.
The stakes A and rails B D and post Fthus wired together form a frame-work sufficiently rigid to sustain any after structure and keep it all in place; but we make each part which we add to the fence do something toward stiffening the whole, as follows: To stop hogs,we add a number of lower rails, H, by first securing a wire, I, at its lower end to the foot of the post F, and at its upper end to the wire-loop G. We then place between this wire I and the post F as many railsH as may be required, one above another. Then we place between the rails H and around the post F and wire I a series of wire loops, J, and twist on them until they bind the rails H all firmly to the post. rigid in all its joints, so that hogs, cattle, or wind cannot disturb it. In fact, a section may be taken up bodily and moved to any place required without racking the joints, thus making it a portable fence.
K represents abarbed'wire which we attach to the posts 13 as a substitute for the heavy rider common to stake-and-rider fences. This is a positive preventive to cattle jumping. The wire is secured at the end by wrapping it around the post; but at other points we secure it by means of binding-loops L, which pass around the wire and around each post. This is a mode of fastening which does away with staples, andmay be more readily loosened than a staple. The loop has only to be untwisted enough to slip up off the post; then it may be left on the barbed wire for future use.
If the two stakes A were driven into the ground the rail B and wire 0 would not be necessary to the complete lock formed by the stakes, the rail D, the binding-wire, the post F, and wire G.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the top rail, D, the two stakes A, crossed beneath and rising above the said rail, the under rail, B, located in the downward fork of the stakes A, the wire 0, passing around both of the said stakes and joined at its ends in a single loop, and passing from stake to stake beneath the rail B, the wire E, passing around both stakes, crossing over the rail D, and joined at its ends, forming a loop around the said stakes, the strainer-post F, within the said loop between A panel of fence thus made is perfectly.
sustaining fence and constituting a frame for supporting other rails, as set forth.
