Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 58,867, dated October 16, 1866.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, S. F. MERRITT, of the of a person for holding a pair of eyeglasses,-
the same being composed, in detail, ot' a snaphook having a cross-piece at the top of its shank for keeping' itin a proper position, and a pin secured to its back for fastening it to the clothes of a person.
The drawing is a perspective view of my invention, showing it as holding or supporting a pair of eyeglasses.
A B designate the part of the device which I term the snap-hook, A being the shank, and B the hook, the end of the latter being so bent as to spring against the former, and thus prevent any casual dropping ofi' from the hook of any article hung thereon. C is a bar at or near the top ot' the shank, extending out from either side thereof. This bar C not only renders the device more ornamental, by giving' it somewhat the appearance of an anchor, butit serves to prevent the hook turning sidewise, and therefore the hook is always kept in a proper position for placing upon the same the ring or eye attached to the bows of the eye glass, as well as to permit the ready withdrawal of the same.
Secured to the back of the shank A there is a pin, D, which is hinged or pivoted in a similar way to the pins attached to ordinary breastpins, and to the lower end ofthe shank there 'is a catch, a, into which to place the end of the pin for confining it, as in an ordinary breastpin.
The device may be made, in whole or in part, of the same or different metals or materials, and as ornamental as desired.`
The device is shown as secured in the side of a gentlemans vest in a position very accessible to the hand, and where it would not be likely to come in contact with anything so as to be injured; but it may be attached in any proper position on the persons clothing.
The device is ornamental and useful, and by its use the neck-cord usually employed for holding a pair of eyeglasses may be dispensed with, and hence the wearer will be relieved of an appendage always in the way.
Having thus described my invention, T claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pat-J ent- As a new article of manufacture, an eyeglass"
