A Lowering’ Device is not only important in lowering’ a casket, 
but is essential in softening the appearance and beautifying the 
grave, in keeping with m* dern funeral furnishings. Thirty-five 
sold to cemetery officials in city of Detroit, Mich. 
The above photo shows Device and Lining over the grave. The 
Border and Linings are fastened together, thereby covering the 
walls of the grave and the plank. When the casket is placed on 
the webbing and you are ready to lower the same, loosen thebrake 
until the desired speed is obtained, and then step back. It lowers 
the Casket safely and noiselessly without anyone touching the 
Device.^ The casket can be raised as well as lowered. A child’s 
3 feet 3 inches, as well as an adult 6 feet 3 inches case or grave 
vault can be lowered.
