Letters Patent No. 95,996, dated October 19, 1869. v

IMPROVE!) SAD-IRON HOLDER AND CLOTHES-DINER.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To whom tt may concern Be it known that we, HENRY L. FRANKLINV and EUGENE CLARK, of Nashua, county of Hillsborough, and State of New Hampshire, have invented a new article of kitchen-furniture, which we denominate a Combined Sad-Iron Holder and Clothes-Drier; and do hereby declare the following'to be a full, clear, and

exact description thereof, reference being .had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 a Vertical section ot' our invention, attached to the wall of a room.v Figure 2 shows it attached to a table.

Figure 3- shows lock, by which the'frame is attached v 'to a wall.

The object of our invention is a new article of kitchen-furniture, having the convenience of a sad-iron holder and a smalljhouse clothes-drier combined.

And the nature of our invention consists in the combination of a sad-iron holder anda small house clothesdrier, so combined as to make a convenient and useful article of kitchen-furnitlu'e.

In the drawings- A is a cast frame, having jaw or clamp'A, and lock- C is a sadeiron holder, turning upon top of frame A, by means of screw m.

a b are shoulders, projecting from front of frame A, which serve to hold the arms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

- These arms turn on pin S,'and constitute the clothesdrier.

The frame is held tothe wall of a room by bed-rail lock B and D, while it is fastened to a table by clamp A and thumb-screw S.

A woman, in ironing, can attach the holder and clothes-drier to either side or end of a table, the holder O turning upon m.

This arrangement is convenient, for she can, after the bars are full, hang the whole ,upon the wall'for the vclothes to dry.

lhere are many times when our combination would prove useful and convenient, that will readily suggestthemselves to any one.

We do not claim a clothes-drier, made with arms turning on one point, for it is old, nor do we claim a sad-iron holder; but l What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, iss 1. The' combination of sad-iron holder C and frame A, forming,rwith arms 1, 2, 3, Sto., a clothes-drier, sub' stanti-ally as shown and described.

2. The combination of sad-iron holder O, clothes-A drier described, aud lock B 1), substantially as shown and set forth. l

In testimony whereof, we have signed our names to this specification, insthe presence of two subscribing witnesses.

` HENRY 'L. FRANKLIN.

EUGENE CLARK.
