Be it known that I', R. M.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A A A is a harness tree; B, a drum, in which one end of the crupper-strap is secured. C is a ratchet, turned by the thumbscrew D and held by the spring-pawl E.
The crupper-strap F passes through the slot a in the saddle tree, and is secured to the drum B, and is lengthened by releasing the ratchet U from the pawl E and pulling out the strap. It is shortened by turning the thumb-screw D.
The like arrangement can be applied to any strap of saddle or harness which it is desired to render adjustable, such as stirrup-leathers, and traces, and the like.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure I by Letters Patent, is-
Thedrum B, constructed as described, its front end receiving the terret, and its rear end slotted for the passage ofthe strap of' the harness, when the latter is Wound within the drum upon the shaft of the ratchet C and thumbscrew D, as herein described, for the purpose p specified.
