  • the object of the boxes is to prevent the convict from making the steel-hardened jaws of the Gardner or other shackle cut their own rivets, which may be done by placing the one-half of the jaw of a shackle on a solid bed or object and then striking the other half of the jaw until it is driven past its fellow sufli- 'The rivets are preferably countersunk.
