Yes, until I see where someone else did it first, this man invented the SAFE. Call it what it is, dammit!
i honest to goodness thought this was henry "box" brown & was going to light his behind up. but thankfully this is a different man.
i guess both "henry" and the surname "brown" are such common names that there were likely many formerly enslaved persoons w/the same name.
Great post. This invention was so important and paved the way for lockers, small safes etc.
