201. JACKSON, HENRY, 62 Westbourn Street, Pimlico — Inventor and Manufacturer.
Fire-escape dressing-table, intended to be always ready and in instant motion, without the least preparation, and to be drawn up from above or below as many times as there are persons to be rescued. The first motion of raising the table-top opens the window, and lets down iron blinds to any number of lower windows.
