UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS B. JOHNSON, OF LULI'NG, TEXAS.
WIRE FENCE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 596,003, dated December 21, 1897. Application filed September '7, 1897. derial No. 650,782. (No model.)
To all whom it may-concern:
of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in WVire Fences; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
The special object of my invention is to make a cheap and efficient post to which fence- Wires may be quickly and durably stapled.
Reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is an elevation of a fence embodying my invent-ion, and Fig. 2 a back detail and section of one post.
In the drawings, A represents the wire rails, 13 the posts to which they are attached, and O the staples by which the rails are secured to the posts.
I preferably cast the posts B with tubular bodies 1), solid points 5, a Vertical slot 6 and the lateral notches b but they may be made of malleable metal or of a solid bar doubled or folded in the middle, so as to bring together the ends, which are made to form a point. The staples C have their legs 0 0 extended through the slot b where a rail is to go, and then bent in opposite directions, so
are pulled by the staple slightly into the slotb thus making a small dent in the wire at each post before the legs 0 c are clenched, so as to have their ends lying in the post-notches 5 This causes all the slack in the wire to occur at the posts, where it may be easily taken up; but in practice the wire will rarely slack to any considerable extent Where the drive-posts B are firmly planted. The single slot 19 is better than separate ones for each rail, because it enables the fencer to readily place his wire rails at any preferred distance apart, while my way of clenching the staples prevents them from drawing out, as they do in wooden posts.
What I claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is-
A metallic post, for wire-rail fences, provided with the tubular body 1), vertical slot 6 solid point b, and cross-notches b whereby it may be used with staples and wire rails in the manner and for the purpose set forth. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
THOS. B. JOHNSON.
