J. SECHRIST;
Corn Husker.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH SEGHRIST, OF OONNELLSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CORN- HUSKER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 69,258, dated September 24, 1867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH SEoHRIsT, of Connellsville, in the county of Fayette and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Corn Huskers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure l is a view of the hand with the huskers applied. Fig. 2 is an elevation showing the back of the glove. Fig. 3 is an elevation of husking-claws to be used with or without a glove. Fig. 4 is another elevation of the same.
The same letters are employed in all the figures in the indication of parts which are identical.
My invention consists in the use, upon the fingers, of tubular metallic claws, which may be used in tearing open the husks of corn.
In the drawings, A is a stout leather glove, leaving the thumb and forefinger free. On the middle and third fingers of the right hand are attached tubular metallic pieces B, which terminate with a hooked claw at the end next the end of the fingers. On the left thumb is worn a similar tubular piece, with a hook at the end and on the side, as shown in Fig. 1. These hooked terminations may be inserted through the husk, and used in tearing the same from the ear.
Instead of the forms shown in Fig. 2, which have lateral slits to tit them to the fingers, I also propose to use tubular metallic claws, as shown in Figs. 3 and I, which maybe used on the hand with or without a glove, said piece being formed from a single piece of sheet metal coiled into the tubular form shown in the drawings.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination of the gloves A and tubular claws B, for husking corn, arranged to operate substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOSEPH SEUHRIST.

T. I. ROGERS,
