be placed in the building with the reservation, however
that the Company should “not be liable for any loss
arising from the Boiler's exploding”
The lease which I drew for Mr Oliphant
to sign contained a clause making him liable for
all loss or damage that should be caused by rea-
son of the explosion of the Boiler, thus covering up

protection against any accident that may occur.
Ever gratefully
Your Nephew
Clarence A. Seward.
