To all whom it may concern I had to the accompanying drawings, and. to the Jetters' of reference marked thereon;

My invention consists in a metallic flame with flanges, for binding the edges of rein-holes, toprevent the holes flom tearing out at the corners, and a clasp on the top of the face of the flame, by which to secure the flap covering the flont of rein-hole.
