SCANNED PAGE ONE
Why it is here
Eben Norton Horsford, Rumford Professor at Harvard, testing safes against fire, damp, rust and frost. On its second page he writes that protection from fire “can be relative only, not absolute” — in 1863. Every catalogue that has promised otherwise since was already refuted here.
