DESIGN FOR A BURIAL-CASE OR COI'IIN.

TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: l

Be it known that I, E. S. EARLEY, of the city and county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a. new :und useful Design for Burial Gaskets or Coffins; and I do hereby declare the following to be a. clear and exact description of the nature thereof, sucent to enable others skilled in the art to which it appertans to fully understand and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in whiehl Figure 1 is a. side elevation of' a burial case constructed according to my design.

Figure 2 is a. top view thereof.

My invention consists in a buriul casket or coin of beautiful design and form.

The body A of the coiin has t-s sides a parallel with oblique extensions, which unite with tbe head and foot pieces B C, so that the corners present the Vappearance of being cut olf," as shown at b. A bead, c, is placed around the body at the bottom thereof, and at equal distances from the top and bottom of the body I place beads d e. Suitable buttons orstudsfare placed on both sides of the joints, between the oblique extensions and the bead and foot pieces, and also around the body between the beads c and D is the lid or cover of raised form, and may be said to resembles. truncated .oblong pyramid. The raised part is moulded, the members of which moulding are a. cove, g, fillet, h, ovolo, i, and fillet, k, and the ends of the cover are beaded, as shown at l. The top m of the lid is flut; and may bc provided with a suitable shield or plate. The shape of the lid issimilar to the body oi' the coin, that is, it has its corners cutpff," and the moulding conIorms thereto. Buttons or studs n are placed at various points, which, with screw heads o, should be plated. Ordinary handles may be placed at properpoints oi' the body, the form oi which 'may be varied.

Having thus described my invention, what I claimus new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The design for burial cases, substantially ns described and-rcpreseuted in the drawings.

To the above I have signed my name this 10th day of June, 1867.

E. S. EARLEY.
