UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
VILLIAllI BILLINGS, OF DOVER, ILLINOIS.
FENCE-RAIL.
.DPCIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 339,732, dated April 13, 1886.
Application led July l, i885. Serial No. 170,399. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM BrLmNGs, of Dover, in the county of Bureau and State of Illinois, have invented an Improved Fence- Rail, of which the following is a speciiication.
The invention relates to that class of fenceswhich are constructed partially or entirely of metal; and its special object' is to make what constitutes the rails or takes the place thereof with as little expense as possible, but plainly visible and strong enough for all practical purposes.
Figure l of the drawings is a side elevation of a panel of one form of fence. Fig. 2 is a similar view of a modification. Fig. 3 is a detail view, in perspective,l of a single rail, which will form an article of manufacture in agricultural stores, and be ready for farmers or consumers to put up on wood prepared by themselves.
In the drawings, A represents a fiat metallic rail or wire, which has been preferably galvanized to make it weather-proof. I preferably make it from three to five eighths of an inch wide and eight feet long; but of course the dimensions are a matter of option. Like any other panel of fence, there may be any desired number of rails and any wished-for altitude.
In Fig. 2 of the drawings I show top and bottom rods, B B, of iron, between which these Y rails are arranged, the same being interwoven and looped together and about the rods,which are iliade fast to wooden posts C. Each rail has a hole, a, near the ends, so as to be readily and held at bottom to staples or keepers D, ar-
ranged alternately on opposite sides of boards E, made fast to the posts.
It will thus be perceived that l make a fence of cheap thin strips of metal interwoven together, stretched both vertically and horizontally between Wooden or metallic supports. Besides its cheapness, utility, and durability, it is an ornamental fence, pleasant to the eye, and improving to the landscape.
Having thus described my invention,what I claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is-
As an article of manufacture, the described fence-rail, consisting of a flat metallic strip with a hole near each end, and bends c', made alternately in opposite directions, substan tially as set forth.
TILLIAM BILLINGS.
