John Reid, Detroit, Mich., Snpt. Mt. Elliot and Mt. Olivet Cemeteries, has used the 
Device 3,500 times without an accident. 
Folding Device Works, Ovid, Mich. Detroit, Mich., Oct. 4, 1906. 
Gentlemen— In justice to the perfection and safety of the mechanism of your Casket 
Lowering Device as well as its neat appearance when In use, I wish to state that in the 
cemeteries under roy charge we have nine of your Devices in use and used them at least 
3,500 times for lowering caskets of all sizes and weights without a single accident 
or mishap. John Reid, Superintendent Mt. Elliot and Mt. Olivet Cemeteries. 
Buy the best— There is none just like it 
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 modern 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 the brake 
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. 
Our Patent Casket Guides are also shown. These keep the 
Casket from catching on the rough box and for directing the 
Casket squarely into the grave when on sloping ground. 
This Device is absolutely safe, easy to handle and elegantly 
fiinshed. Also manufacturers of Little Giant Telescoping Device. 
The entire weight of device 7S founds.

Funeral Directors Association, sends the following: 
Folding Device Works, Ovid, Mich. Seattle, Wash.. Oct. 10, 1906. 
Gentlemen — I desire to say that I do not see where it would be possible to 
Improve on your Lowering Device. We are using three at this time ( ail your 
make) and out of three thousand interments made where your device was 
used I have yet to have the llrst accident. 
Most respectfully, E. R. Butterworth & Son.
