Patent for a new and improved car berth. This design consists in "[t]he combination, with a car formed with an opening, recess, or compartment, of a berth consisting of a series of parallel slats connected together by flexible connections and adapted to be rolled up . . . and end supports adapted to be independently folded each upon itself, so that they may be concealed below the rolled berth, the inner side of the berth and the inner ends of the supports being secured within the opening" (lines 49-58).
