Description:
Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. There are no patent drawings available. This patent is in the database for reference only.

"This is a kind of flat, cast-iron, box, made to fit a fire-place, and having an upper plate, upon the middle of which the fire is to be built. In the centre, just under the fire, there is to be an enclosed iron drawer, in which articles to be baked may be placed, whilst kettles, &c. may be hung over the fire, as in the ordinary fire-place. The ends of this cast-iron box, beyond the centre drawer, have their upper parts formed of bars, or grating, and may have placed upon them any cooking utensil. How these are to be heated from below, we do not perceive."
