The BOYD Burglar-Proof Grave Vault.
The Progressive Batavian Newspaper
Batavia, Genesee Co., NY
January 29 1886
The BOYD Burglar-Proof Grave Vault.
Constructed of heaving chilled iron plate, and being self-locking, it is
the only vault in the world that is absolutely proof against grave robbers. Endorsed and recommended by Undertakers, Cemetery Associations
and leading citizens and divines everywhere. The sacred bodies of our beloved dead, otherwise liable to be torn from their graves by
sacrilegious hands, ruthlessly mutilated and made the subjects of the rude and ghastly jests of brutal grave
robbers-- are afforded complete protection within the secure environments of the BOYD Grave Vault.
Every Cemetery, however well guarded, is likely to be secretly invaded and robbed of recently interred bodies. Remembering that the BOYD Grave
Vault provides the only effectual security against this desecration, is
there any wonder that thousands are in use all over the country? Kept in stock and for sale by all leading undertakers.
Manufactured by The
Springfield Manufacturing Co., for sale in Batavia by C.H. TURNER & Son.
