To all whom zit may concern:

Be it known that I, FRANKLIN J BRINDLEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Etna Green, in the county of Kosciusko and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Design for Metal Crooks for Sleighs, Sleds, &c., of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a design for metal crooks for sleighs, sleds, &c.,reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, showing a part thereof, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a metal crook embodying the features of my design. Fig. 2 is a like view of the opposite side, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view.

The leading feature of my design consists in a crook-body having its rear portion substantially rectangular in shape in cross-section and recessed upon its under side, the forward wall of the recess being inclined, the forward portion of the crook-body being curved upwardly and having a longitudinal recess in the upper side, the recess being divided by two transverse walls, forming a transverselyarranged pocket, and the extreme forward end of the crook terminating in a depending perforated side projection.

The rearward portion 1 of the crook is substantially rectangular in cross-section and is provided with a recess 2 in its underside, the forward wall 3 of the recess being inclined rearwardly, whereby the forward wall and top wall of the recess describe an acute angle, the forward portion 4 of the crock being curved upwardly from the portion 1 and is provided with a longitudinal recess 5 in its upper side, as shown, the recess being divided by two transverse walls 6, forming a transversely-arranged pocket 7. Extending through the rear end of the body are orifices 8, and through the forward end of the body an orifice 9, said orifice 9 being located midway the sides of the body and walls 6, respectively. Depending from the body at one side at the forward end thereof is a lug 10, having a transverse orifice 11.

What I claim is- The design for a metal crook for sleds, sleighs, &c., substantially as herein shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

FRANKLIN J. BRINDLEY.
