Description

@cited tctrtf MYRN H. BECKWORTH, OF CAMDEN, NEW YORK..
Letters Patent No. 93,950, dated August 24, 1869.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it lmay concern Be it known that I, MYRON H. BEGKWORTH, of Camden, in the county of Oneida, and State of New York, have invented, made, and applied to use a certain new and useful Improvement in Ladies Bustles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and 'exact description of the said invention, -reference being hadto the'annexed drawing, making part of this specification, wherein- Figure 1 is an inverted plan of said bustle, as spread ont flat, or nearly so, and
Figure 2 is a section of said bustle at one of the springs.
Similar marks of reference denote the sameparts.
'lhis invention relates to a bustle, to be Worn byladies, to set out the-dress near the waist and atv the back of the person.
It is made so that it can be allowed to set almost close to the person, or else be projected to anydesired extent, according to the' taste of the person, the dress that is to be worn over it, or the occasion on which the bustle is used, thus avoiding the purchase o f more than one bustle at a time, and this bustle is light, cool, cheap, and strong, and is not liable to be injured in use, because it yields freely to the person or to the dress, when sitting, and there is no risk of injury to the person from the springs, when compressed against the back of a seat, or otherwise.
In the drawinga is a crescent-shaped fabric, formed of one or more thicknesses. I prefer to have two thicknesses, so that they can' be stitched together, and form radiating pockets, into which the springs are introduced.
At the inner edge of the crescent the band b is attached, and tapes, straps, or other means for fastening the bustle around the waist, are provided.
The springs c are each formed with an eye, bent up at one end as at e, (see fig. 2,) and through' these the cord, strap, or tightener fis passed, and also threaded through eyelets at t', inserted in the fabric a.
By tightening this cord, the arc of a circle formed by the spring, as in-g. 2, can be increased so as to project more' abruptlyv from the person, or by slackening the cord, the reverse will be effected,
The eyes e in the springs c, coming next to the person, prevent scratching or injury by the end of the spring.
What I claim, and desire to secure by, Letters Iat-A ent isf ',he ladies bustle, formed of a fabric, linto which the springs c are introduced, in combination with the tightencr or cord f, passing through eyes at the ends of the springs, and through eyelets near the other ends of the springs, as set forth, and for the purposes specified.
In witness'whereof, I have hereunto set my signa-V ture, this 9th day of February, 1869.
` MYRON H. BECKWORTH.
Witnesses G. WIRT, ROBERT Amp.
