thus freeing the sash from the frame; rlhe sash can then be entirely withdravi/1nfrom the frame, and the sash weight will draw Athe Afastening member upwardlyuntil it con# fr tacts withthe pin 41; 'In order to Lfacilitate the;wash 'ngoperationy of the outer face of the glass carried by the sash,the hooks 39 and40 20 are inserted beneath the platesjf-37fand 38, p y

thus. suspending the' sash, .and as there is only YVsash weight operating,that-is,the one carried bythe cord 35,'there-,will-be no excessive upward `pull upon lthe sash, 'and it can be n readily manipulated; The dot-and-jdash lines in;y the. drawings show. the positionY of the sash in its several withdrawal positions, and
